    Re: Smackdown vs. Raw demo impressions

    I cant seem to beat Kane with HHH.... he reverses everything I do and chokeslams me after a couple moves. And I lay on the floor and he just does move after move. Too much button mashing to make your character get up... he lies on the ground for 5 minutes after one hit... thats bs. So far this demo is causing me to pass on this game...

      When the match starts, i've learned that while it isn't completely necessary, start off with the quick grapples to wear him down. When he's on the ground, do a few ground moves to get your momentum up. When your momentum is up, you can pull off strong grapples much easier and inflict more damage.

          I feel you. The stamina thing is really my only gripe. The whole "tap button repeatedly" things doesn't make sense. It doesn't seem like it's of any value.

          I really like this game, and when you factor in creating your own wrestler and all other aspects of the game, it'll be fun.

          Wasn't the fatigue a factor in Wrestlemania for the Xbox?
          Being kind, one to another, never disappoints.

            there was no fatigue in wrestlemania for xbox, that was quite possibly the worst wrestling game ive ever played, horrible move sets, horrible gameplay...story presentation wasnt too bad tho

              Yea the fatigue is crazy Triple H did about 20 moves to me why i was on the ground and i couldnt get up even during the breaks in between the moves then he picked me up and did a spinebuster and then contiuned to do about 15 moves on the ground without me getting up then i quit.

                my first game that happened, but then i started trying to wear him down, work up to big moves...i dominated at that point, i think it's really just learning the game

                  Remember guys, it's just like regular pro-wrestling...you have to work towards the big spots/moves.

                    Exactly. Ever since I purchased FPW2 for GBA, I have played all wrestling games in this manner, even previous Smackdown's. It's a lot more fun wearing a guy down and then nailing big moves, even if they games before allowed you to hit big moves early in the match. Now, Smackdown has finally adapted this style, and it's fantastic.

                      Got excited for no reason. Because if that was true, that would be one amazing move to do. One day I assume we'll have it.

                          Yes, as a matter of fact, I am positive I read in an IGN article a couple months ago that tables could in fact be stacked. I also recall a video clip showing HHH superplex Cena through 2 tables, so from what I can tell, it is in the retail version. Just not the demo.

                            Tables can indeed be stacked inside the ring I believe. The demo is lacking a good bit, but still a great demo.

                              Tables can be stacked inside the ring on the demo now..it is a glitch. A long one but the video shows you how to..and here are some intructions:
                              Step#1: Getting into the crowd
                              First, you need to exit the crowd. To do this, have Triple H and Kane jump over the barricade. Set up a table so it's next to the guard rail with the orange wires hanging from it. You want the table set up horizontally, with the long sides of the table stretching between the two guardrails. Have Kane stand between the table and the guard rail with the orange wires. He should be standing next to the short edge of the table.

                              Have Triple H Irish whip him against the guard rail. Chances are the table moved so walk over to the other end and flick the right thumbstick. It'll push the table closer to Kane.

                              Walk back over and grapple Kane before he recovers. You do not need to be standing in front of him.

                              If you did it right when you grapple Kane, you'll throw him over the guard rail and the table will push you through. Depending on how far the table pushed you in, just Triple H or Triple H and Kane will be inside the crowd. Wait for the camera to go back to normal, then move out of the way as Kane tries to climb back in.

                              If you fail, just keep trying. You'll know if you're making any progress if you see parts of Triple H's body passing through the barricade.

                              Okay, so you only need one person on the outside to move on to the next step:

                              Step #2:Pass off the table.
                              Move the wrestler in the crowd so he's behind the scaffolding, and set down the controller.

                              Do not move him too close to the speakers or he'll pass back into the area and you'll have to repeat going into the crowd all over again.

                              Have the other wrestler pick up the table and walk towards the speakers near the scaffolding. Have him swing the weapon until he loses his stamina and drops it.

                              Push the weapon closer to the speakers and then climb up the scaffolding. Do a diving attack. Instead of falling off, you'll turn and jump towards the wrestler behind you, and land safely on the board you were standing on. You now have total control of your wrestler up top. You can fall off the way you came, but there's an invisible barrier preventing you from falling off the back.

                              Move closer to the speakers and gradually inch your way to the edge, pressing the action button to pick up the fallen table.

                              The table will teleport up to you.

                              Once the wrestler on top of the scaffolding has the table, continue swinging it facing the wrestler behind the scaffolding. You'll lose your stamina again and drop the table, on top of the board you're standing on.

                              Now pick up the controller and inch the wrestler standing behind the scaffolding toward the table. Press the action button to pick up the table. It will teleport to you.

                              Step #3: Get back into ring
                              Now you have a table beyond the crowd barrier. Take the table and walk back to the ring, cutting through the people in their seats. When you pass the security wall at ringside, enter the ring with the table. Be sure to do this because before you re-enter the ring, you and the weapon are still considered in the crowd because you never went back over the barricade. If you drop it, and then enter the ring, you'll have to go through the crowd again to pick it up. Once the table is in the ring, you're fine. Just bring the other wrestler back and continue playing.

                              Congratulations. The table will now respawn in the ring area when broken.

                              You can repeat the process to get more tables. Although, I'm not sure how many you'll be able to pull out before the game locks up, so just be careful.

                              You can see why I wanted someone with a video capabilities to make a tutorial.

                              Hopefully these instructions weren't too hard to follow.

                              If you're stuck, post and I'll give additional help

                                So here's a question I have? I am downloading this now, but I have never played a SvR game, and haven't played a wrestling game since Raw 2 on Xbox...I liked that game, but for some reason it never gave me the feel that No Mercy for N64 gave me. Are there any other big No Mercy fans from way back that are having a great time with this game?
