jaysonirizarryDec 5, 2008this game is the same as last year if not worse. little improvement have been made. The addition of the inferno match has not added fun to the game. Road to wrestlemania is awful, career mode for the CAWS gets old quick. the only thing redeeming about this game is the create a finisher.

Mar 21, 2020Quite possibly the worst WWE game ever. Combat sucks, RTWM is garbage and the game is very barebones in game modes.

To all the SmackDown haters out there: If you're going to jump back in the ring, this is the year to do it. Both of these exciting new additions, along with the aforementioned improvements -- and the upcoming downloadable content -- make SVR09 this year's grapple-game champ.
-
The fighting mechanics have been enhanced and edited to the point that any room for improvement is nearly all in the extras (and if TNA iMPACT! has anything to say, in the animations and the clipping). WWE Smackdown! vs. RAW 2009 is the strongest next-gen title in the franchise, no questions asked.

SDvR09 is better than last year's effort, no question, and it's a better game than TNA Impact! on account of it being yet another iteration of a tried and trusted game engine and packed full to bursting with features old and new. So yes, on the whole it has met the challenge.
