I bought this game expecting to play as my hero from one of the year's greatest movies. I was disappointed. Why did they leave out Randy The Ram? I mean, who else in the game has this kind of back story? During his match you could have had Marissa Tomei in a cut scene where she begs him not to wrestle. He's fighting a life-battle against death, people!

"When you live hard and you play hard and burn the candle at both ends... in this life, you can lose everything you love, everything that loves you. A lot of people told me that I'd never wrestle again, they said "he's washed up", "he's finished" , "he's a loser", "he's all through". You know what? The only ones gonna tell me when I'm through doing my thing, is you people here. You people here... you people here. You're my family."

He's just an old broken down piece of meat and you programmers left him out. John Cena's movie was not as touching. It seems like he's living on easy street with his pretty wife and a roof over his head. I wish you guys had the same heart this warrior had.

Still THQ hasn't fixed the major glitches(made a patch)for online like the "Freeze Glitch" and the "Crowd Glitch".The freeze glitch will have a player stuck to the mat for the whole match unless the player quits(which the cheater would win regardless).You would see this happening in ladder,steel cage,tag team,handicap,etc. and any other match where the cheater would have full advantage.The crowd glitch would have the cheater interact with the crowd every 2-3 seconds and the player would not be able to stop them unless he/she could get close enough to stop the glitch.I know THQ wont fix these things because they are currently working on 2010,but I think it still needs to be addressed.Offline,Road To WrestleMania is alot of fun(short,but fun)and the career mode(to me)is VERY boring(use it if you only want to raise your CAS stats)!

WWE SmackDown! Here Comes the Pain

Here comes the pain in my opinion is THE best wrestling video game i have ever played. i dont really care too much for the current wrestling games becuase this one had almost everything i wanted.

***The ONLY NEGATIVE THING ABOUT THIS***
first let me start off that I bought the game when it first came out, but then i guess i played it so much that it just stopped working, so i bought it a second time. my second one stopped working too, so NOW i'm searching for a third one thats not so expensive. I would NOT buy a used one becuase i think for some reason after a while, the game just kind of gives out. its like it will refuse to work if its already been used up or something. Me and even my sister bought used ones and both of them didnt work. so i highly suggest you buy a NEW one. but like i said before, it guess its just one of those games that acts up. its weird. i dont know if its just the games i happen to pick out or something, but yea...



the graphics are pretty nice, they are not as great as the current video games but they are pretty impressive. To be honest i only play wrestling games to make up my own created suspertars and then play them in season mode. my sister and I would bend over laughing to death when we wrestle as our own suspertars. i LOVE the created suspertar mode becuase you create your own characters the way YOU want them to be and give them your own moves. there are tones of outfits, accessories and even designs to choose from.

The way the characters move, i would give a B+ becuas their bodies move and bend in the way that they should after a move or getting hit with a weapon. when you use a finisher move, jump off the tunbuckle or hit your wrestlers with weapons, the scene will sort of do a blurry slow-motion scene for you. its really awesome.

The season is pretty long, and pretty entertaining, i dont think the wrestlers speak in this one, but its STILL really good. you do get to add female wrestlers (even female created susperstars) into season mode, but they can't wrestle, they can only be like a manger, but there is one Match that you can let them have when they are in a rival with another group.

The backstage area are fantastic, you get to outside in the streets and climb the building thats across from the arena, there's a parking lot, there are MANY places you can go (its been years since i played the game i can't remember.) Smackdown here comes the pain is THE LAST werstling video game that allows divas and female created susperstars to go backstage. in THIS game the female wrestlers can do just about everything that the male wrestlers can, whether its slobber knocker, hell in the cell, elimination chamber match. i think the only thing they can't do is First Blood.

I LOVE the game soo much i wish i had many copies in my posession. i LOVE it!!!

The In-ring & Menu themes rock! i like listening to every single of them.

Our grandson asked us to buy this for his 9th birthday. He loves to watch wrestling, and he received it on his birthday.
