Fletch Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 I think this is pretty much confirmed given the current situation between WWE and THQ and pretty much everyone Ive spoke to has heard this is the new release date. Im going to be looking further into it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest eyes_adrift Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 My local game store still say the 14th so i'm getting pissed of that i'm gonna go in and not get it. Still i do get it a day early since it's pre ordered and i get free stuff with the games as well which they do with every smackdown game last year it was a free sampler dvd with parts fom the Brock Lesnar,Shawn Michaels and Rey Mysterio dvd's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest voice of reason Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 Game's offer to those that preordered is a 20 minute sampler of the new Eddy Guerrero DVD, just so's you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dickie Hyde Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 (edited) CREDIT:Backstagewrestling.com "I spoke with THQ today, and they have confirmed to me that 100% the release date for Smackdown vs RAW in the UK has been moved forward to the 9th of November. The US Release date remains at the 2nd November" Don't know but BSW are usually 100% when they say so... Damn THQ, i have a decision to make, someone help!: My birthday is on the 29th November, and i thought the game would be coming out on the 19th, therefore i'd wait 10 days for it. But now, it's 20 days to wait, so i'm thinking of buying it and getting something else for my birthday? Maybe a differet game? Anyone?!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest Dickie Hyde Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 BSW - that the site with Matt "I blatently steal from Dave Meltzer and Dave Scherer" Boone? Probably, but I do not care :) Now then, my decision awaits... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroIC Gaming Posted October 24, 2004 Author Share Posted October 24, 2004 I say you should wait for smackdown v raw then when you get it you will enjoy it more knowing you waited for it if not just get some socks for your birthday lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BWS Soldier Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 i'll be getting mine for Christmas i think the wait will be well worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Trash Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 I agree James Felton. I'm not getting it until Christmas. The main reason is financial, but the other is that I'll be too busy playing GTA: SA ! Plus it will be more exciting getting the game then, because I can play it on Christman day which I do every year. Christmas would'nt be Christmas if I didnt play the newest Smackdown all morning. The only problem is all my mates will have it in a few weeks and will be raving on how good it is and how much I'm missing out on it :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BWS Soldier Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 ye i know how that feels but there is nothing better on Christmas morning than playing on the newest vesion of Smackdown any way i have checked four sites and they all say that it is going to be released still on the 19th of november i checked Game,Amazon,HMV and Tesco all say it will be released on 19th november Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Trash Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Plus it should have gone down in price by Christmas because it would have been out for a month already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest voice of reason Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 That makes sense, remember that the 12th is a Friday but the 9th would be a Tuesday, which'd be odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
