They need to make the skin look more realistic. Otherwise, it's coming along nicely. They also need to fix the tattoo issue where the tats get messed up on a created character (blurred, pixelated, etc.). Also, please don't cut down on CAW material. 2007 had so much cut out of it when it came to hair, shirts, accessories and editing options (styles for instance). They also need to make it to where you can break up moves. If my buddy is about to get Tombstoned, I should be able to do a Spinning Heel Kick or Sweet Chin Music to break it up and save him. I'd also like better 'ring awareness'. Say if I counter an opponent grappling my legs and kick him off, if I'm near the turnbuckle, I want to be able to kick him into it. Same for suplexes. If I suplex near the ropes where they would land on the outside, make it so. The countering system could use some work. I want to be able to counter a finisher further into it than just at the beginning. Say I'm about to get Speared by Edge. If I have a stored finisher, I should be able to time it right before he hits me to sidestep it to where he goes into the turnbuckle. And in this case, build on it. He misses me but if he has another one stored up, he can stop himself at the turnbuckle before hitting it. Aerial moves need some work too. You see in real life where they 'attempt' to catch the flier when they connect? Bring that into the game. If I vault over the rope to the outside where 3 other opponents are fighting, instead of 'hitting' them and having everyone falling over, have them all catch me and all of us hit the ground together. They can also build on weapon specials, preferably the table in this case. It was added in '07 but can be improved by expanding the number of specials that can be used to break the table. Create-A-Move would be a nice addition along with the ability to play your own music for an entrance off the HDD. Create-A-Sign would also be nice. And please bring back multiplayer seasons and the backstage areas back. (where you could go from the ring, to the lobby, to the locker room, etc. Makes no sense you can't do so in a Hardcore match anymore) My 2 cents...for now. I really don't like how the series has gone multiplatform. I think it would have benefited more being PlayStation only as now they are so spread out across everything. Wii might even get the game What the hell happened to Day of Reckoning? Sucks...

well physics seem to be one of the PS3's specialties so who know, maybe we could see some of that kind of stuff, i just really want a more robust CAW.

You'll get herpies if you touch the controler. Lita's GONE, and good riddance to her. She plain out sucked, and she couldn't even use the mic or act. But she thought she could LOL

hopefully the story mode isn't linear and finished an hour then u never wanna do it again!

the career modes from games like raw (xbox), smackdown 1/2 (PSone) and wrestling encore (pc) just seem sooo much more interesting...they should do a nxt gen version of all those combined lol...forget the voice acting.

i mean they could even have the linear boring story mode and the non-linear one as a seperate things

I especially miss the pre-season as a way of getting initial stats for created wrestlers!!!

I completely agree. I sent an email to THQ right after the first Smackdown vs RAW was done and asked them to go back to text cause the linear 1 time story line SUCKS. I'd gladly trade in reading text and get infin potential and direction in a story line instead of voice acting any day. And you gotta amit, they don't exactly act like they do on TV. And the storys are not built around the character like on TV either. Seriously, if I were to play as 'Taker, I want the'Taker we all know and get choices doing things what 'Taker's character would do on TV. Not get jumped by RVD and be a wuss as if I were a create-a-wrestler. Or 'Taker walking in the office saying "Yeah I respect the champ.." THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN. With text, you can also have the Legends in the story mode aswell if you want, and not have to worry about not getting them to voice act (especially if they're dead)

Then again, if it were to be more than 1 story line, they would have to do more voice acting work (a lot more) and Vince already works them like dogs already. Too bad we don't have the technology to synthisize a voice perfectly and not make it sound like a robot. That way, we'd have the possibilities.

if the game didn't go mulit-platform then they'd prehaps be more people allowed in the ring at the time. For an example:- you remember WWE Smackdown just bring it had 8 people in the ring at once that was cool, but terrible when it come to hardcore matches since you could have 4 people after just you.

More wrestlers including more classic wrestlers

More people in the ring at once if so then maybe 10 this time or 8 at once again

better storyline

Classic arenas Wrestlemania I, IX,X etc

barbwire match?

more people in royal rumble mentioned as early

TheX360 DVD spaceis holding up everything why don't they just makean exclusive WWE Verison for PS3 anda different onefor theX360
