Okay No Riot Tonight.... + Smackdown vs. RAW 09 announced


This looks like a new trend for Wrestlemania weekend announcing this year's entry for their games. Smackdown vs. RAW 2009 is official as expected and the focus this time is tag teams with momentum meters combined for a team, hot tags, and more double team moves. The story mode, aka Road to Wrestlemania, can be done also co-op along with single player, which is cool. Some other new features like Create-A-Finisher and upcoming DLC for updated rosters makes this year's Smackdown worthwhile. If u want to read more about this one, IGN has the exclusive preview with the first trailer and a long / good interview that is a good read if u liked the recent Smackdown games. Honestly, the last WWE game I bought was Here Comes the Pain back in 2003 and I always like maybe this is the time to buy them again, but I don't. I rather buy TNA's video game instead, TNA Impact!, since I'm getting to be more of a TNA fan than WWE now even though TNA has its own problems of being a good wrestling promotion. In addition, Impact is currently looking way better than this one graphically currently. Let's see if THQ and Yuke's can step it up with the graphics, but the amount of content in this year's game is good enough to please fans.

Lastly, looks like no riot tonight with Jabbawockeez winning America's Best Dance Crew = Yay!!! I guess America voted right after all. Since it is spoiled already before the West Coast viewing, I'm still watching the finale tonight anyway. Hopefully Season 2 is bigger and better, but it will be hard to top this first season with Jabba and Kaba Modern blowing away the competition.

Other than Mario Lopez (barf) that show was okay and this game looks pretty sexy.
