WWE Smackdown vs RAW 2011
WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011: The first WWE licensed video game of the post Jakks Pacific era by THQ. Was confirmed by THQ CEO Brian Farrell to be shown at E3.
What we know: At this point we really dont know much. We do know that Paul Bearer and Chris Jericho have provided voice overs for the game.
What we think we know: I believe that this years games focus will be online. With THQ expanding the online modes of the SVR series. Like what was seen with the UFC 2010 Undisputed Community site, I believe that THQ will try to combine the online SVR community to the game in some way. Some ideas that were discussed, online stat tracking, tournaments, and of course the shared creations. Imagine logging into the SVR Community site and in one place you will have the ability to view and select for download new community created content. Once you start the game, the contents would then be downloaded to your system. With stats tracking, it would be much more in depth then just simple win or loss records. The stats would track everything from how many times you put people through tables or how many times you used international(foreign) objects.
I also expect that the RTWM mode to be expanded upon and to incorporate more complex branching story lines.
Highly Unlikely but we can dream: A concrete plan on how to handle dlc on a ongoing weekly basis. A brand new engine that will completely solve all of the myriad issues with the gameplay but more then likely create entirely new ones for which forum members to complain about.
