If you want to see the trailer and clips from this game go to:
http://pub37.ezboard.com/fsmackdown2codes18861frm37.showMessage?topicID=42.topic
and download them from there...
The main trailer uses Union Underground (who do the RAW theme) as the background music...
I can\'t wait for this game to come out!
I have to have this game!!!!!!!!!
I\'ve owned all 3 Smackdown! games anyway
:bounce: with excitement
-
I\'ve bought the last 2 SD\'s..looks like Ill be getting this one too. I wonder how much memory the game will eat up on the card now instead of half like SD3? 3/4 or more? :D
Nonetheless, it will be purchased.
-
Please god, get rid of that awful countering system found in SD3...
And please, fix the story mode!
And yes, the memory card space needs to be less, if possible.
And the created wrestler in-game glitches- the game always freezing when I use a custom jobber- wtf?
Other than those complaints, I liked the 3 one. But the best wrestling game borderlines on either Smackdown 1 or Attitude.
-
That guy is linking to my mates files, what a cheeky ****, Ill have to tell him about that.
-
why do I have a feeling this will be just as glitchy and poorly developed as the last one.

because your not thinking properly :)
this will be to SD3 what TS2 is to TimeSplitters.. the original was rushed and poorly done while this one will be what the original was supposed to be.
ive got high hopes :)

SDJBI is ok but you don\'t take enough damage from moves and the wrestlers don\'t stay down long enough.

It really depends on when which moves are executed.
-
the cut scenes are Horrible, the lip movements are ridiculous, they should put voice acting in for heavens sake, invest in something that will give you a breakthrough advantage over raw.
Another thing, lets get a little more creative with the moves. All the premades have the same friggin arm twist.
-
Ive seen all 22 movies of Smackdown: SYM and it looks like a 100% improvment over SD JBI, the cutscenes look amazing, the animation is near perfect ( best of all the wrestling games ) , the gfx are twice as good ( 2x the polygons ), the commantary is said to be improved, the crowd is now 3D, weapons are interactive, chairs bend, 2 year season mode, smackdown mall ( like no mercy ) , full sized hell in a cell, the list goes on why this game is going to rule.
-
Oh god, just do away with commentary...
This looks to be a great... SINGLES COMPETITION... matchup between... "THE ONE"... billy... GUNN... and THE... Rock...

Unless it\'s your finisher they get up in 2 seconds. Or you land 3 big moves in a row.

they stay down now, I saw RVD frog splash hogan through a tabe and he was out cold.
-
Release date?
-
Ok this game looks great. THe best one I have seen in 3 years. All the past smackdowns have sucked. THis game looks great.
-
I am really looking forward to this now. I bought JBI, but just couldnt bring myself to keep it, yeah it was entertaining with mates, except commentary and other glitches, but everything else totally sucked. This looks a lot more impressive, I just hope they dont mess it up. I cant do with it being over hyped like the last one was, I had such high expectations for that. Fingers are crossed.

As long as you\'re not refering to No Mercy. :)
Yeah, I was speaking of Playstation wrestling games. Attitude was the game that converted me into a wrestling fan. I still remember how me, my brother, and my best friend would stay up all night and day, building created wrestlers and Pay-Per-Views. Good times.
The original Smackdown! introduced us to the Story mode. It was the best to date; unfortunately, it was a little short. And the created wrestlers were a little too limited. But it had a great move system, doing out with the complex button combinations of Attitude.
Smackdown!2 was good, but had way too many flaws to beat its older cousins. The story mode was great, especially the way you could hunt after any title of your choosing. Plus, you could edit the rosters. So if you didn\'t want Taker going after the World Championship, then put him under Hardcore or something. The created wrestlers were still too limited, although not as much as SD1. The biggest flaw were the long load times and the way matches were "simulated". What happened to the instant win/lose thing in SD1?
SD-JBI was by far the worst SD game. Created wrestler system was near perfect. But the game could crash when playing with creations. WTF? And the story mode was ruined. Lip sync sucked, commentary sucked. And you couldn\'t defend your titles. Why?
I have high hopes for SD 4. The graphics are already looking to be the best yet. C\'mon THQ/Yukes, don\'t blow it!

So is this the newest and best game available? The clips do look really good. I had WWF Raw (Xbox) and they took out more than they left in. I hope that doesn\'t happen here.
-
Will this be any better than WX8?
I\'m not so sure which of these should I get and I don\'t want to get 2 wrestling games.
-
Ive seen 22 vids of SD4 and about 10 from WMX8 and from what Ive seen Id say SD4 kills it, there both made by the same company so basically WMX8 is a prototype for SD4, anything thats not fixed in WMX8 will be fixed in SD4, also the gfx and chracters models are much better in SD4
-
When is it scheduled for release???
-
wow this game looks amazing, i just hope the save file is not 4mb\'s

well according to gamespot the game is scheduled to be released by the end of this year.
-
Apparently THQ are hinting at a March/April 2003 release to be able to make this game perfect and to be able to keep up with the current storylines like Shawn Michaels joining the NWO

Damn, that\'ll be a while. When will they be able to get the liscense for Booker T\'s music? They should make everything exact with that much time.
-
They should have Booker T\'s Music as it\'s not copyrighted by any bands cause Jim Johnston who creates the WWE Themes has done it.
And as the WWE has rights to all the themes by bands like Union Underground, Saliva, Motorhead, Marilyn Manson,etc then like with Limp Bizkit, Disturbed and Motorhead on Just Bring It, they will give THQ the rights to use the themes...
Plus if ex-Alliance wrestlers like DDP(now retired), RVD, Lance Storm, Hulk Hogan, NWO are on then I\'m sure all the themes and move lists etc, will be on as well...
There is also rumors that Create-a-stable will be improved as people asked about the NWO and THQ have said that they may, if they have time, do an NWO stable where your created wrestler or any out of the roster will automaically wear the NWO colours, but it\'s not official...
I can\'t wait for this game to come out whenever that is...

oh yeah, to answer that, THQ have decided to use 10,000 polygons instead of 5,000 like on Smackdown! Just Bring It on every wrestler to make them look a whole lot better.
But that also means that THQ have had to make sacrifices and now instead of having 9 in the ring at the same time, you only get to have 6 at the most.
Oh and Create-a-wrestler will be even more improved with hopefully more layers, and also it will make full use of the 10,000 polygons...

Ugh, that\'s so pathetic. To take steps backward in the gameplay department for a few worthless polygons. Just throw a couple textures in there and get out, there\'s no need to take three people out of the ring, they should be trying to fit more in.
Wrestling game developers are so lazy, the games look like they\'re getting worse over time.

What use do you have for 3 more wrestlers? ;)
Personally, I never liked having so many people in the ring at once. With the way the "targeting" system worked, things got real frustrating real fast. Plus, there were only 8 actual wrestlers (the 9th was the ref). I hated having a ref running around, because he was constantly getting in my way, etc. Up to 6 people means you still have some great six-man tag matches or royal rumbles to look forward to.
A few less characters in order to have a higher polygon count? Great deal, as far as I\'m concerned. I\'m mean, judging from the screenshots, it\'s well worth it. :)

Damn, this is gonna be a great game. I\'ll probably use Booker T\'s music and Christians pyro for my created player. How many special moves are each wrestler allowed to have, anyway? I hope it\'s more than two and the opponent actually stays down after the move. I am getting tired of fighting with these super wrestlers.
