Fans of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) have all the more reason to smile. THQ has announced that "WWE SmackDown vs Raw 2009" is in development for the Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, PSP, Wii, Nintendo DS, and mobile platforms, and is expected to begin shipping to retail around September this year.

Based on a wildly popular (and addictive if one might add) TV show, the game shows signs of being equally popular if not more. The franchise continues to enchant and hook youngsters despite all the talk about put-on dramatics and scripted action.

"WWE SmackDown vs Raw 2009" will star several World Wrestling favorites including Chris Jericho, Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy, Randy Orton, Mr Kennedy, Undertaker, and John Cena. It will allow gamers to play as their favorite stars -- down to mimicking every move that each star is associated with or known for.

Besides the upcoming game will feature a brand new Create-A-Finisher option; a Road to WrestleMania Mode that introduces the possibility of co-op story lines; game play enhanced with downloadable content; tag team play for building momentum and other attributes; a wider range of match-type options; superstar control for interactive entrances and victory scenes; and so on.

The Wii version of the game will include a variety of new weapons and motion controls apart from online game play. For the latest trailer, visit: http://media.ps3.ign.com/media/142/14242649/vids_1.html.

Meanwhile, the Nintendo DS version will use the handheld's stylus and D-pad while incorporating a redesigned Season Mode to allow players interact with superstars in different ways.

Well it all sounds fun but on this game i would realy like Vince Shane and Stephanie McMahon on playable mode plus i would like D-Generation X to be in the new game plus alternative entrances for Kane and Undertaker and it would be cool that as well as ecw and wwe ledgends have legend tag teams like Hart Foundation Stiner Brothers Dudley Boys DX 1997-2000 tag team plus other playable charictors like Johnathen Coachmen Vicki Gurerrero Teddy Long. plus what would realy make the game relistic is when someone interups a match have there entrance played in full plus on season mode or 24/7 mode have a chairman mode where ya can be the boss and fire people and hire people from other wrestling companys thats what smackdown vs raw 2009 or 20010 should be like

I think that Jesse and Festus and Duece and Domino should be on the new game. On story mode allow a tagteam to compete for the tag titles. The game need to allow different files on story mode so that other people can't interfere with yours. Please insert a 8-10 man tagteam match. The create-a-character should have plenty of new cholthes and hairstyles. There shouldn't be any rules in story mode. You should be free.

My son is a huge fan and I need tickets for us for the 2009 smackdown. He loves this and i know a little, but how will I get them for him he is 12 yrs old. All he thinks and watches, and talks about is wrestling. We live in a small town in Texas, this is suppose to be here in 2009 in Houston I want to take him this is very important to me. I have not ever had a chance or money to do anything this is worth it to me for him. I need TICKETS FOR SMACKDOWN 2009
