Smackdown vs Raw 2010 DS


A few years back I picked up the 2008 DS version of this game. And was one of the worst games I had ever played. For some unknown reason the developers made all the controls based around the stylus. Which made for a very annoying game. But when I saw on the back of the 2010 version that this time it used the basic d-pad and buttons control scheme I figured it would be worth buying. And it so far has been. The Create a wrestler feature is fairly detailed,and so far I have created 3 different CAWs. The storyline feature seems to have some depth and replay value. The graphics look really good for the DS. The roster is pretty large when you consider this is a handheld version. Now I haven't finished the storyline mode,I think I am about halfway through it so far. But so far their has been plenty of humor and just plain strange stuff in the story. The only real negatives to the game are first the annoying mini games you have to play to increase your stats. Most of them are button mashers,that get pretty old pretty quick. The music is mostly shit,well besides the various superstars entrance themes. But overall the game is worth what I paid for it. Smackdown vs Raw 2010 gets a B+.
