WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 brings THQ and Yuke's annual wrestling showcase to PlayStation 2 with a deep roster of superstars drawn from the Raw, SmackDown and ECW brands. This entry rebuilt tag team play around cooperative double-team moves and dramatic hot-tag comebacks, and debuted the Road to WrestleMania mode, where you follow scripted storylines for stars such as John Cena, Triple H, The Undertaker and Chris Jericho. Create-a-Finisher lets you design your own signature move step by step, while Royal Rumbles, ladder bouts, Hell in a Cell and many more match types keep exhibition play varied. A career mode and a full suite of creation tools add plenty of replay value for wrestling fans. Loose disc only; original cover art and manual not included.
