Wait so you actually get to play the created stories of other people from online? If so that's CRAZY! I picked this up earlier before work and I'm about to throw it in now. I wasn't thinking about this game til IGN released alot of new info a week or two ago.

yes you can. Its pretty sweet. The load times are a bit annoying, but they are still fun to watch play out.

how is the online play? is it laggy like it was last year??

played a friend of mine online tonight and it was a bit laggy. Not sure if it was his connection(he's been having issues) or the game, but for the one match it was a bit laggy.

I'm not digging the out of the ring camera. Too far away from the action.

Nice. This could be my favorite WWE game since Wrestlemania 2000. I always missed being able to edit the attires and this CAS gives it alot of replay value that the past few ones didn't have.

i agree. it's a weird camera shift and kind of jarring. as a whole i think the camera is a little too close.

This is my Forza.

Downloading other storylines, and making my own...crack. Simply crack.

Game other than that, is the same as it's been. I love the cleaner look and better, more realistic presentation. But it's still the same game. If you didn't like how it played before, you won't now either. They have the WWE Legends kick out of pin meter, and I prefer the way they do the Royal Rumble now.

If you want a game with a long shelf life, this is it. Once talented people get ahold of the CAS, you could have endless storylines. On the 360, last night's Raw was already up. I also love how you can download CAW, got a great Sting, Savage, and Sabu.

I'm addicted to create a finisher and CAW.

I haven't even touched Create a Storyline yet...but I'm fairly positive it's going to be like crack as well.

Oh, and if I ever figure this create an entrance out...yeah...

Just got home from work and all i could think about was storylines to create. This game is going to be bad for everything in my life.

Re: **Official WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010 Impressions Thread**

Damn, this game flew under the radar for me. The IGN video review was really impressive but still left me with some questions.

I'm extremely intrigued about this Create-A-Storyline mode but I'm a little confused. Is it completely separate to the Career/GM Mode that they used to have? Are you controlling the whole show or just the storyline?

Are the storylines being downloaded from THQ's server? or are they coming from a SD vs Raw community?

Hopefully somebody can clear this up for me...

I haven't bought a wrestling game in a while but this might push me over the edge since I've always loved EWR/TEW.

Re: **Official WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010 Impressions Thread**

As far as I've seen, it is completely different than Career and GM Mode and you can make storylines for any show, but I don't think it's EWR style. EDIT: After quick browsing it, it does appear to have some sort of linear thing to it.

And you can create them, you can get user created ones and, I think, there may be some coming directly from WWE themselves...but don't quote me on this.

Having not owned a SvR game since 07, this game is freaking amazing, from the in ring stuff, to all the stuff you can create, to the storylines...it's probably the deepest wrestling game I've ever seen on any console. Not quite TEW customization, but lets be honest, that's almost impossible.

Its pretty cool that...

You can play with locked(maybe DLC also) charaters in a downloaded story despite not having the wrestler unlocked....Also, If a creator changed a costume color on a wrestler for his story, the wrestler will keep that scheme once you DL it....Thats awesome especially if a stable/tag team was formed and rocks the same color ala MVP and Henry..

Thanks for the info OSU.

I've been watching some people play the game on Justin.tv and I think I'm going to pull the trigger soon. It's hard finding time for all the great games this year, I guess I wont be getting an NBA game.
