Release Date

edit

According to IGN.com, the game's release date has been scheduled. September 30 for the PS2, PSP, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, and Nintendo DS. The PS3 version of the game will be released on December 30. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.22.196.244 (talk) 00:24, 8 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

THQ officially have it in trailers as Fall 2009. The "September 30" and "December 30" dates are simply placeholders for IGN to use since they can't put that down on their database lists. It's more noticable in a Google search for that date. --  Oakster   07:32, 8 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Just got an email from Game telling me the EU release date is pushed back to 06 November —Preceding unsigned comment added by Killloneliness (talkcontribs) 18:35, 27 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

E3 2009

edit

In the 2009's E3; THQ published a trailer video of WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010, and in this video the narrator of the trailer say more features. This is the link of that trailer in YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FK__0jObTI. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.216.117.83 (talk) 20:20, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Apart from the mention of "creations", it's mostly promo mumbo jumbo that's hardly notable. --  Oakster   09:34, 30 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Posts & Forums

edit

According to posts and forums of WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 the game will have in the roster members of the Alumni and Hall of Fame or Legends (like want to call them), the already known "Road to WrestleMania" and Season Mode, and a new way which will be called "Legendary Road to WrestleMania" (as posts the latter will be a "Road to WrestleMania" of Alumnis and Legends). Other Forums are completely made about how the game freezes after Royal Rumble matches. Its said that it happens on most consoles.

Also it was said that this game is centred in giving the major freedom to the player, as better graphics to make it more real. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.217.5.152 (talk) 01:43, 1 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Message board posts aren't reliable sources in general. --  Oakster   10:19, 1 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Kofi Kingston Confirmed???

edit

I just watched the video on the THQ mini site for SVR 2010 and right at the begining Michelle Boyd says: "Hi, I'm Michelle Boyd and I'm here with Kofi Kingston, one of the stars of the upcoming Smackdown vs Raw 2010." Should we note in the article that he is confirmed for the game. Because this is a legit source and the woman said he was one of the stars in/of Smackdown vs Raw 2010. Also, she said she was a employee of THQ at the end of the video. I would like to see an answer on what we should do. Thanks a lot people for your answers!!! :) --Fresh Prince Carlton (talk) 20:51, 20 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

As far as I know, roster lists are being phased out in wrestling game articles. --  Oakster   10:50, 21 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I know, I'm just saying why don't we do like the 2009 Roster section and just mention the big people in the game. Or at least mention Kofi in the article somewhere. --Fresh Prince Carlton (talk) 21:20, 22 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

RAW's own section

edit

Shouldn't the RAW video game series have its own column at the bottom of the page? Danny Boy 420 (talk) 01:10, 10 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Not really as there isn't much of a series to begin with. All you have is a 1994 game and an unrelated 2002 game along with its sequel. And SvR has no links to them anyway so it's hardly a matter for this article anyway. --  Θakster   11:41, 10 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yoshi Tatsu

edit

Arent U guys gonna say anything about How Yoshi Tatsu being the first DLC character for this game? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mastercarr (talkcontribs) 17:06, 11 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

As far as I know, roster lists have been phased out (apparently it's classified as gamecruft) and so the sheer mention of him would essentially be going against that guideline. --  Θakster   18:17, 11 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

And sorry for not signingMastercarr (talk) 20:19, 11 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

It's alright, I didn't even notice. :) --  Θakster   21:16, 11 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Stone Cold Steve Austin

edit

I was watching a video on youtube about the wrestlers select screen images and while I was looking I came across his. to find the video go on youtube and look up Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 models-96.244.132.93 (talk) 14:27, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, until we are informed of further information about the roster (i.e differences from last year), nothing will be noted about Stone Cold (although yes THQ has released the models and he is one of them. --Truco 503 15:21, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speaking of the roster do you know when the countdown starts96.244.132.93 (talk) 16:30, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

No clue, you're just gonna have to wait and see if IGN or WWE starts it up.--Truco 503 17:27, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

The main article only refers to Austin as being unlockable through certain retailers when in reality, people who pre-order WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2010 from GameStop will recieve a code to unlock Stone Cold Steve Austin, and for people who pre-order from Play.com, they will recieve a download code to unlock The Rock, although, other than the retailer for Austin and the website for The Rock's characters to be unlocked repsectively, I am uncertain if any other retailers or websites are offering to include download codes for either character when a customer pre-orders from them, although I would certainly imagine not.98.209.48.133 (talk) 03:08, 21 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Fixed. Is that okay for you? --  Θakster   13:20, 23 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Shouldn't it be said that the superstar threads highlight reel will only be for xbox 360 and ps3? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.230.80.192 (talk) 18:50, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Create a Finishers

edit

In the article it sais that there is front finishers and diving finishers but on the website http://caws.ws/forum/index.php?showtopic=331630 THQ insider sais there will be front, behind, turnbuckle, and diving. He also said not sure about submissions.Crossfire96 (talk) 20:26, 17 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

The Brian Kendrick

edit

Is The Brian Kendrick in the game? wwe.com says no, but other sources say yes. Whats the go? MC Steel (talk) 06:19, 25 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

He is in the game, it's just that in many cases WWE refuses to acknowledge released superstars-Mastercarr (talk) 14:40, 26 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

OK MC Steel (talk) 03:26, 1 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

I looked on the offical website, and his there. I thought if WWE refuses to acknowledge released superstars, then why do they acknowledge JBL and Jeff Hardy? MC Steel (talk) 05:18, 21 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Because they left the WWE on good terms with management-Mastercarr (talk) 16:04, 23 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Divas in all match types?

edit

Trying this again, since apparently saying "this sounds great!" at the start disqualified it as a legitimate question. Is there confirmation that Ladder, TLC, HiaC, Elimination Chamber, and Extreme Ruels matches can now have Diva participants? There does not appear to be a source for this statement, it just sort of pops up in the discussion of match types. Source?214.3.138.234 (talk) 14:19, 1 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply

Yeah, it was covered in the THQ chat at WWE Universe. There is a source for it, it just that the next sentence used the same source so there's no need for "oversourcing". --  Θakster   07:20, 3 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
10-4; I tried to check that one for confirmation, but I guess they don't archive the chats.214.3.138.234 (talk) 17:24, 5 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply
The article already has a direct link to the archived chat as a reference. If you still can't find it, the exact quote was:
8:02 SvR10Jon: Yes, you can give divas created finishers. Also Divas can now participate in every match type (except first blood).
Hope this helps. --  Θakster   22:28, 5 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Covered all the bases; my thanks. This article is much more succinct than past video game ones.214.3.138.234 (talk) 15:23, 13 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply

Got the game the other day, and realized that Divas also cannot compete in the Inferno match. Not sure if there are any other matches they are excluded from, but is personal experience with the game considered "original research"? Do I have to find a separate source to site something that is an existing fact? 214.3.138.234 (talk) 14:19, 22 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply

Further- Divas cannot compete in Hell in a Cell, Elimination Chamber, or Royal Rumble matches. The statement currently in the article (that "other than First Blood, Divas can now compete in all match types...") is highly innacurate, but it IS what is said in the source. This, however, is a lie. 214.3.138.234 (talk) 15:51, 23 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply
Since it is true but without a source, I've added Citation needed to it until another source is found. I'll see if I can give it a try. --  Θakster   09:00, 24 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, I've found a new source. Hope this helps. --  Θakster   11:17, 24 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Great job, Oakster. I should have thought ot add the citation needed! There are actually some other odd limitations as well, but I haven't nearly got to the bottom of them. The game is a bit odd... The downloaded characters can't be edited, the intergender match you get DQed if you do double team moves, and all sorts of other things not mentioned anywhere. 214.3.138.234 (talk) 19:25, 27 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply

Create A Storyline

edit

Wouldn't it be useful in the section about creating a storyline that maybe someone who knew more about it than me can write up an example on the page just to give someone an idea what you can do - I feel it would be quite useful :) Nicolizzio (talk) 22:20, 6 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

This is an encylopedia, not a gamer site. Example storylines would not be appropriate. There are plenty of articles on IGN, Gamespot, and other sites which have videos and articles on the storyline editor.--ECWAGuru (talk) 02:35, 7 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Until the game comes out, no one is going to be more specific than the oddly worded "500 segments... 50 segments and 450 matches. CAWs can make 10 appearances." It is a bit vague, but that'll probably stick until release. Wonder if it's a memory limitation on the CAW thing? 214.3.138.234 (talk) 15:26, 13 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply
As ECWAGuru said, example stories would be inappropriate for a Wikipedia article, so the "vague" descriptions will stay. Actually, I don't think it's vague at all, it's pretty straight-forward. 500 events total, with a 450 match limit and a 50 scene limit. As for the 10 CAW appearances, one of the developers said it was because while sharing online, more than 10 CAW appearances would make the file size too big. Finally, in answering Nicolizzio's question, writing anything except the rules of the mode would make this article appear as an advertisement, which is specifically against the Wiki-rules. Also, when you have people writing example storylines, there could be a potential POV issue and so on, so forth. It's better the way it is right now. Cold Phront (talk) 23:12, 16 October 2009 (UTC)Reply


Hey sorry to ask you guys a dumb question, but do any of you know if THQ left the normal CAS call names in like (Richard, Anthony, Tyler) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.249.203.41 (talk) 00:48, 14 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

No idea, and they're probably going to delete your question. 214.3.138.234 (talk) 18:38, 15 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply
In today's review, IGN confirmed that normal call names are not in this year's game. They only have the generic ones like "The Demon." --ECWAGuru (talk) 18:42, 15 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
That could be worth mentioning in the article, since a lot of changes have been mentioned. It is a drastic cut back from the several pages of names (generic and real names) down to a couple dozen generic nicknames, but the announcers refer to you by it in game and the crowd will chant it. 214.3.138.234 (talk) 14:21, 22 October 2009 (UTC)SteveReply

Ps2

i know this isn't a place for questions but is superstar threads for ps2? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.230.85.250 (talk) 17:48, 17 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

How do you know? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.230.85.250 (talk) 16:55, 18 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Definitely not the place to have this conversation, but I did some research. It looks like it won't be on the PS2, so I apologize for that. Cold Phront (talk) 23:51, 19 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Notability: Diva petition?

edit

"However, apart from the mixed tag team match, intergender match-ups are no longer allowed." - something which has drawn significant criticism from the fanbase, far more than any other feature in the game. There is a petition on the game's official forum to remove the restrictions on Divas, which has well over two hundred signatures, when most topics on the same forum have barely five replies. Does that qualify as significant enough to be worth a mention? Other fan criticisms I've noticed include the points allocation system in Create A Wrestler mode and the fact that the restrictions on entrances are present in offline as well as online play, but they haven't provoked the same reactions as the Divas thing. However I do generally believe that fan reception is as notable for a piece of media as critical reception and commercial success, albeit harder to verify.

Road to WrestleMania

edit

It should create an article called "Road to WrestleMania", giving information about this story mode that has been watching from WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009, bringing who the "Road to WrestleMania", which game has been and what has been the argument of each story. I think so.

Thanks for your time. --Ponce (talk) 18:36, 26 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
