[@gilbertpritchard3069]

My favorite thing about this game was the environmental grapple with the ring and weapons But I always felt there was a lot of missing things in the game rather be thumb tacks barbed wire match or barbwire table but also missing ECW legends

[@you-5-iver804]

The whole vibe felt so different from the other games and more badass, probably due to the emphasis on ECW.

[@ShroomsInLocker]

It's good but man the time period and roster just felt so cold, svr 2007 still is the best. However svr 2008 is still real fun to play.

Yes sir. Granted I had the PlayStation 2 version of this game I don't think it was too different at that time. but the fact that ECW was in this game and I can play at some of those legends just made my day cuz I was always a huge ECW fan. I need sandman the world heavyweight Champion and he dominated.

[@courtjester9678]

Smackdown vs RAW 2006 and 2011 were miles better than 2008. I view 08 as one of the weakest in the SvR lineup. The fighting styles were limiting and unbalanced. And it suffers from having one of the weakest rosters. Other than the ECW stars and style, nothing else was brought to the table with this game. Soundtrack was good though.

[@nirmalcena5249]

Why everyone underestimate this game Like seriously Yes this game wasn't the best in SVR series but sure as hell not the weakest SVR 2009 was the weakest SVR game in the series

@@nirmalcena5249 I can't speak for everyone, but I just gave the reasons I believe 2008 is the weakest game in the SvR series. I prefer 09 over 08.

What's the difference between Submission Match and Ultimate Submission Match????

[@Doceli-dg3cn]

A submission match is a match when the only way to win is to submit ur opponent once. Ultimate submission is a iron man match but the only way to score by making ur opponent submit

[@KimKimbelle]

In my opinion it wasn't very good if im not mistaken that is the one you had to select a fighting style for custom wrestlers and it limited your moves for that wrestler

[@matthewkim605]

This game was a mixed bag for me. A lot of my favorite wrestlers were missing, and I was never into ECW, so there wasn’t much interest for me in terms of the roster. While the fighting styles made gameplay interesting and fresh, they were also limiting, as certain wrestlers didn’t have access to specific moves they were typically known for. 24/7 was crap-all I have to say about that. GM mode was a good inclusion but again, because of the thin roster, it didn’t feel as immersive, although the training aspect was a cool concept. All in all, it was ok, but not great.

[@anonymous_idontreplylmaous72]

It was great

[@retrocysper3709]

This game is missing some ECW Wrestlers which makes me disappointed. Like : • Nunzio (he's around in 2007 to 2008) • Stevie Richards (same as Nunzio) • Balls Mahoney (he's been in WWE in 2006 till April 2008) Let's list down some new guys : • The Miz • Matt Striker • Kevin Thorn (even if on a generic attire)

Excluding Buried Alive, I'm pretty sure WWE 2K still has majority of these features, too... You go on about fighting styles, as if that's exclusive to this game, but WWE 2K still has different types of wrestling styles, too; Powerhouse, Giants, Strikers, Technicians, and Cruiserweight... And that Ultimate Control shit, whichever SvR it was, WWE 2K also has that, but much better with it's Lift and Carry System that allows you to perform finishes from any Carry position - THAT'S AWESOME...
