replies: text: I don't think being released from WWE determines whether or not you get in a game. People get released every year and taking them out would just cause more problems within the game. The only exceptions would be a situation like Benoit's.. 76.21.249.103 22:15, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm aware that the one Wikipedia has is the one. All the games sites, as well as smackdownvsraw.com has it, but we should still call it an early version as the ERSB rating, nor the Online notification (where applicable) is not yet included. Socby19 03:27, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Cover's caption

message: http://gonintendo.com/?p=22310 
An online game for a Nintnedo system usually has a blue "Nintendo WiFi" logo on it. But this isn't the final boxart, so perhaps they didn't implement it in yet. Joey368 23:29, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, it's unlikely as there is no ERSB rating on the cover (to me RP doesn't count since it hasn't been established, and besides, the official website lists it as T for Teen). Another thing to point out is that the PS2 cover listed in the article doesn't have the PS2 online box. There's almost no reason they would ditch online now (as the original, '06, and '07 had it), so my guess is that they're still testing online functionality, and when it has been confirmed as a 'working process', it'll get the online stamp for its respective console. One thing to point out is that some fan-made covers for this version used the PS3 seal towards the left (as it always is) and the PS2 online box towards the bottom (which for non-owners, PS3 games won't have, it will just say 'online compatible', or something along the lines under supported features.

thread_title: No Online mode for Wii version? 

message: I'm just pointing out that even though this will be the first game in the series to feature an ECW roster, the first game ever to feature anything in for ECW was Smackdown!vs Raw 06 because the ECW One Night Stand pay per view was there and the same for the 2007 version. Any options whether this or Smackdown vs Raw 06 is the official game to introduce ECW? 9:51,

message: Should we create a sub-title for each of the fighting styles (eg: power house, showman ect.) and describe what they do, as they do on the srv2008 trailer on www.svr2008.com. I know it is listed in the New features sub-title, but shouldn't we expand this? Dingyv03 07:32, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That would make things a little messy. We don't really need excessive gameplay details anyway - that is something out of the scope for Wikipedia. It's more along with lines of a dedicated gaming page. --Jtalledo (talk) 11:03, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

We try to keep Wikipedia as reliable as possible. There are people watching almost every article here, reverting incorrect information. Gavyn Sykes 20:39, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As long as the items are cited, it's as reliable as reliability can get. The site caws.ws doesn't even list what their real sources are. I would love to see where they say this. You'll notice that most of the roster is obtained from the current Wikipedia artice (the cited ones). The only errors that they have (at least according to Wikipedia) are Chris Benoit and Shane McMahon. Socby19 22:29, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: If it has not already been done, I am requesting that full protection be enabled until September 2nd. According to IGN, the full roster will be revealed on svr2008.com/smackdownvsraw.com (same page) on September 3rd. If anybody has any requests to be made, instead of complaining how admins need to pay attention and check the page every so often, the proper way is to add  to the talk page and explain what changes need to be made. Then, the talk page will be added to :Category:Wikipedia protected edit requests. That is where some admins check frequently to see what pages need changes. Socby19 19:31, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

text: Actually, after you fixed it, there were a few more nonsense edits. Then, I had logged in and found the request to revert to my version. And, yes and no, IGN will probably have the roster. But, svr2008.com will also have it as the site has a "roster tab" that, for now, reads 'coming soon'. Socby19 20:46, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
