A Look Back at Smackdown vs Raw 2011

- Damn, the final Smackdown vs Raw game. If you are like me, you grew up playing the Smackdown vs Raw series. From doing parking lot brawls in the first one to playing GM modes. Playing the wild stories in season mode and eventually Road to Wrestlemania’s. I had so much fun back in the day just playing all of the SVRs. Every game brought something new to the table. The first SVR was like Here Comes the Pain Lite. SVR 2006 was trying to balance simulation and arcade gameplay. SVR 07 went next gen and at that point was the most realistic wrestling game ever. SVR 08 tried pushing the limits of 07 but didn’t hit the mark. Still enjoyed it though. SVR 09 was not the best but because of that game and what it put in motion. We got the amazing SVR 10.. and now here we were. Smackdown vs Raw 2011. We didn’t know it then, but this would be the final SVR game, so how did it go out? Was it a flop? Was it decent or did it go out like Kobe in his final game and drop 60? Lets find out

Hey man I'm having the same shitty routine too sleeping at 5am waking up 3pm were litterly the same
Can we all just take a moment and realize that Undertaker was a 98 overall?! Holy shit! Facing him on legend was a pain in the ass😂
Yeah bro, I remember when I jumped from beginner (I think) to legendary and played a tag team match against the brothers of destruction (me and my friend were CAWs), the match went for 4 hours... a family member then unplugged the ps2 by accident.
I questioned my life in that moment
@ANDON HOWARD mine was a 100 overall caw dude, that's how bad I am at the game
@@jorden5583 nah use dolph and add the super kick lol
@@jorden5583 lol you questioned your life 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He reversed everything bruh
this is one of my favorites in the SVR series. i really liked all the RTWM modes in this game. the ones with Cena, Christian, and Jericho were my favorite modes and they contained hilarious dialogue, especially the one with Christian. i'll always hate that i could never defeat Paul Bearer in 90 seconds on the Xbox 360 version, though. But the VS Taker mode was really fun overall and was by far the most challenging of them all. the Rey Mysterio mode was really fun to play. i think my favorite scene in that one is when you run into Edge (in locker room North - i think) and he's asking you if you've seen Jericho - and because Rey's memory is fucked up - he tells him to just look for the guy who has a head that's about 3 sizes bigger than what it should be. that was hilarious. i think i'd rate this game a 7.9... an 8 at max.
I like that comment I rate it 10 outta 10 😂💯!!
Does anybody remember how much this game is on the PlayStation 3 store
He “just” took his hat and he’s still mad about it. Jake you had it comin
The free roam in the Road to WrestleMania was bomb
This was my game and last smackdown vs raw game I ever had
This was literally my first WWE game
My fav superstar was taker
I literally did anything for winning taker
World heavyweight
Man the old days
Road To Wrestlemania was the best part for me.
Can you check out my wrestling on my channel and comment on the most recent video I’m doing a contest for a shoutout
LOL THIS GAME WILL ONLY REMIND ME OF JACK SWAGGER LMAO
This game had my favorite version of Orton. The bald look with the slow methodical entrance.
I miss you Lee😢
I 100% agree. Totally bald Randy was the absolute prime of his career.
lee your a legend
Randy Orton is “shedding the scales”, in accordance to his moniker as The Viper
Legend Killer Randy Orton best entrance theme too
The ability to explore The Backstage Area in Road To WrestleMania mode was so memorable, 2K Games should take note from this game with their MyCareer Mode in the WWE 2K Games.
They did and you guys complained 2k should do their own thing
2k showcase is better and more interesting than road to Wrestlemania imo
@@grandcanyon-fu9zt 😂
@@malakai.black90 it's more accurate to the storylines
@@grandcanyon-fu9zt the storylines of the road to wrestlemania mode are more accurate and beautiful, also in SvR 2011 you can also shoot backstage
I really love how THQ and Yukes utilized the "E" in WWE which stands for "Entertainment" to its fullest. This is how an entertainment sports game should be. Believe it or not, I still play this game until these days.
My favorite thing about 11 was the CAW stats. No longer did you have to grind to raise the stats. You had the ability to make them however you choose. Your cruiserweights were fast and agile, your heavyweights were strong as bulls.
"This match is not over yet.
Did you forget about your... Other opponent? Ring the bell."
You gotta say it right "OWTHSER OPPONENT"
Er Duwang 😂😂😂
omgg Old Dayzz
Lol and we all wished for it to happen at the end of the match in a hope of unlocking new characters
i remember having to look up how many matches i had to do on which show to get all the superstars
I will never understand why they removed the physics engine after this game this game had some of the best effects to weapons ever and I missed that so much
I think they're aiming to get that "realistic" feel to it but instead making it goofy
Same here I’ll never understand it. That’s why I was so hyped for this game, their biggest gameplay feature was built around this physics engine
They still had the physics, they just nerfed them.
Imagine 2k14 with the physics from SvR11
They were still there afterward, you just couldn’t do things that were as insane as what you could do in 2011
Back when Shad’s and Luke Gallows theme songs played non stop along with others every minute. The good ol days
Edit: RIP Shad❤️
Aiden Scar up to WWE13 idk y they couldn’t have had more songs
And cody rhodes
Vance Archer, Cody Rhodes, Drew, Evan, and I think miz
Psp version played them through the matches instead of commentary.
Yes I know
That's one thing I loved about the Smack v Raw series is it felt like a game that the developers had fun making.
It’s 2010. The Saints won the Super Bowl. Kobe won his fifth ring. Everyone was doing the dougie. Apple IPhone was a luxury.
I’m British so I don’t really get these references haha
Man, it’s probably nostalgia but we take our time here for granted. As life goes on, we just want things to be like when we were growing up so we can live and have fun again. I miss the 2000s and early 2010s
And the world cup 2010 was in Africa
@@GanzoHasashi1911 God me too.. Not much seems too different from between now and 2010 but at the same time... everything changed.. The world was definitely a better place then..

The nostalgia 🥺 can’t believe it was 10 years ago
Man the TLC matches in this game were phenomenal. I once set up four tables outside of the ring near the apron (two side by side, and then two on top). Then I had a ladder set up near the ropes in the ring. I hit the the Killswitch finisher of the ladder and broke the opponent through all four tables. And given that it happened in Universe Mode, he was carried out on the stretcher after the match.
Thanks Thq and Yukes for my childhood.I can't even imagine to grow up with 2k's Wwe games.
That's kind of sad
yeah and feeling sad for the kids nowadays
you wonder why they’re all such whiney little bitches but actually take a look at the world they are growing up in, not even sure if I can blame them anymore
2k's games also developed by yukes dude
Sure
It’s been a decade since SvR 11 came out. Damn, I’m old.
Me too and I'm still young, I got it for my 7th bday and now I'm going on 17.
My brother got it when he was 13 and i was 4. Now I'm almost 14 and he is 22, i feel old now
Supermarioplush 2006 I got it at 13 and I’m 21
Supermarioplush 2006 shut the fuck up😂😂 you haven’t even hit puberty
Ikr I was a sophomore when it came out
SVR 2011 was nuts for its time. Easily top 5 in WWE's games along with HCTP and 2k14 imo
1:57 Sorry but that move will always be called the F-U
Of course, bud !
You just dropped the soap!
I can’t believe they added the wrestlemania 36 arena to this game
Well played.
😂
And they added the new raw and smackdown arenas. Super realistic
Lmfaooo
xD LOL
When are we gettin a side series of you on svr 06 gm mode. Dude id love that
Yo I love your videos didn’t know you were a wrestling fan
In my opinion, 06 had the best GM Mode.
Jesus is the only way to heaven
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)
07 was definitely the best GM Mode
@Popular yt999 it’s tru
This was my last WWE game that I bought. I played this to hell and back man. The Smackdown vs Raw games will always hit different for me. Love the content man👏
You should have gotten 12 And 13 which is much better
I was so HEARTBROKEN about the fact that Jeff Hardy wasn't there. And even more shattered when his version of the Swanton Bomb was also gone.
NEBULA bro Jeff left in 2009. It was pretty obvious he wasn’t gonna be in svr 2011
The closest thing to having Jeff in the game was seeing him in the summerslam poster :(
@@StraightEdgeKnight19 Rob Van Dam However Was In The Game
Future Gohan yea they also added Trish Stratus in svr 2010, even though she was in the wwe alumni
@@futuregohan4837 RVD was in the Royal Rumble in 2009, he probably sign a contract that allows him to be in a WWE game
The one time the tables broke normally and in pieces
This game had my favorite quote of Orton. Cena asks whether he'll paint the GM office yellow to match the streak down his spine, and Orton thoughtfully replies, "I will most likely not be doing that." Maybe it was my imagination, but I always felt like there was still some consideration toward the idea in that response.
This game still surprises me to this day, you don't see writing like this nowadays in a wrestling game
My favourite part of the wrestlemanias in this game is the fact that if you lose at wrestlemania you get a specific cut scene of yourself losing
Possibly the most underrated game in the series, absolutely loved it
Underrated? But its the best
Too bad the AI was horrible. If the AI used their kip-up, you knew that you would win the match in one groggy move. If you ened up attacking the AI before a match (via universe) , if you pin them, they typically wont kick out. Also, if your opponent initiated a grapple hold, just keep mashing RT/R2, you will always reverse the grab because the game has no reversal timing with grapple holds. If you enjoy having the AI lose to an arm drag or a foot stomp, this game is for you. Only thing i enjoyed was the weapon physics and the fact that we can FREELY customize a caws attribute settings...
Legendary game bro. I would literally spend hours on this game day after day and I never got tired. Remember playing this game every weekend with my cousins and brothers and we would just have the most fun ever. Literally can remember these moments vividly, this was my childhood
Same bro
Same
Damn i remember my brother and my 2 male cousins everyone playing all the time elimination chamber and hell in a cell and royal rumble all the time and we were all in holidays.
Man this times were legendary
Same bruh this was my first svr I remember playing that shit everyday on the 360
9:05 oh no, that’s not any old Jeff Hardy that’s, *shudders* victory road 2011 Jeff Hardy
Commie Cat i didn’t think anyone would notice 🤣🤣🤣
@@WrestlinGifs this shit got me traumatized man i instantly recognized it
Too soon
Commie Cat oh nah 😂
Commie Cat that reference must of stang
I remember my brother and I laughing some of the hardest that we've ever laughed when we would go into the universe mode and select the scene of someone getting blindsided in a parking lot and getting their head smashed into a limo, but then making the attacker slot vacant. So the guy getting attacked would look like he was just going insane and smashing his own head into the limo. Still one of the highlights of my childhood to see Triple H plunging his own head straight into a limo window.
Amazing, this is why I love gaming! 😬
Reminds me of me and my own brother 😂😂
Nah man, you thought you chose Vacant, but it was actually Cena and Batista beating them down.
I usually just pick John Cena if I’m gonna down that route
So many memories ❤ Definitely the best svr along with 2008.
Nah. Best is this and 2007 and maybe 2006.
See with this opinion I knew I wasn't tripping 08 svr was the shit's peak lmao
2011 was one of my favourites...ill never forgot those themes on repeat 😂
I just remember Luke Gallows theme would drive me absolutely insane lol pure cringe theme

@@MN_2003 gogeta the boi
This last WWE SvR game had some pros and cons! The pros are: Epic Road To WrestleMania mode especially the free roam, weapons break and don't make a slow-paced fade out transition when they are broken which it makes all match types with weapons more extreme and realistic, fantastic ring entrances, create your own custom corner finisher or signature moves, WCW Monday Night Nitro and NXT arenas, a decent TLC or ladder matches like Hold! and Reach! mini game and more WWE Legends. The cons are: The gameplay had some bad issues like you or your opponent doesn't get fully damaged when you use a wrestling move which is so unrealistic and when you irish whip your opponent through the ropes or corners, they make a really stupid animation with their arms swinging around and also the Universe Mode which is not that fun for me!
I respect your decision and everybody else's decisions, so I don't want bad, rude and disrespectful comments!
We all miss you so much, Yuke's!
Great video as always and keep up the good work!
The worst part about this game was that FREAKING money in the bank match in Christian’s RTWM
Holy shit my brain erased that shit show from my memory. I remember the hours I spent in that single match, that was the worst
I never completed that match.
TDSM 99 it would be even worse when you spent a long time in that match and ended up losing so you have to restart the match
Damn you brought a very bad memory 😂
or the match where you had to lose the ecw championship to keep the story going and I just played the match for 40 minutes hitting finishers to william regal refusing to lose the match
Vance archer’s theme still stuck in my head

Haven't played this game in years. Loved it at the time, and now I'm buying it again. Can't wait to experience it again!
How can I buy this game? Can I play it on ps4
@asensio568 Can only be played on PS3 or Xbox 360. Have to find it used somewhere, ebay or Amazon perhaps.
I like Drew McIntyre's old theme Broken Dreams playing non-stop in the game's background when I played SmackDown vs. Raw 2011 recently in PSP emulators
Look at how happy the developers are. It makes me wanna go dig out my old figures and have them fall through tables again just like the good 'ol days.

I love the SmackDown versus raw series but I've got to admit 2011 was my favorite one I mean the amount of stuff you could do in matches is just amazing in this game.
The dynamic physics were also in the day of reckoning games. You could angle slam someone from the top rope onto a table and it would break
I think, what compliments the game even more, are the amazing camera angles which i loved.
Exactly I wish we would had that in today's games.
They arenthe same
Man oh man have WWE games fallen in the past decade.
WWE 13 and 2K14 are great games and 2K19 isn’t bad but the rest are trash

ROUGH writing. Yikes
Might as well write in JapaChinese
The last SVR was worth being the end of series. 😢
Not really. The need to make opponents groggy for regular attacks was a huge mistake
I agree it was an amazing game with the best story ive played in a wwe game

Same. I played the old SvR games with my friends before I got SvR 2011 myself. Best game ever
I'm still playing the PSP version
I think one of the best details so far is the royal rumble entrances, like John Cena, Shawn Michaels, and I even like Kofi Kingston when he does the boom! Great memories
Creating your own story was an awesome part of this game that I’ll always miss
There hasn't been since a more fun time then turning on a tlc single match on svr2011 with the dozen of tables and ladders when you start the match. First minute in you've broken dozen of tables in a sexy way, it looks actually real
Nothing since then. Not one thing has been such fun as this, guys. In 11 years.
We need SvR back! Screw 2K. I want SvR 2021 (with NXT, of course.)
SVR featuring NXT instead of ECW.
And bring RTWM back. WWE could make a lot of money if they at least had RTWM as a dlc for a FAIR price.

Countless. Countless of hours in Universe mode for me, it was so cool to have a ranking system where Superstars would battle each other for Championships. The grind to get all the superstars in the RTWM. Man this game is legendary and I still play it sometimes when I'm at my mom's. Good times man.
From 2004-2010, SmackDown Vs Raw by far and will go down as one of the GOATS of pro wrestling video games. And now this generation WE ALL WANT IT BACK Because it has some the unique and greatest storylines in each RTWM, Story modes, GM Modes, Etc.
This was the first SvR game I ever got on console! I had been playing SvR 2006 on my PSP until it eventually stopped working. I bought this game for cheap in 2013, and after that I eventually bought SvR 2009 and 2010.
Great great great Memories.. my goodness. Got this a Year later in The Fall of 2011 when I was 15 in Sophomore year but enjoyed it it so much. Jack Swagger, Drew Macintyre, CM Punk, Luke Gallows, Shad, Evan Bourne's, and Cody Rhodes, Smackdown's 2009-2010 themes always pop up when I think of this Game...
A great way to end an Era. Haven't played since the end of Junior Year but with all this time now, who knows?🤷♂️
The jump from svr 10 to 11 was immense. Now every sequel looks like an just an attire update.
i started crying. this was my childhood.
I can't wait for your video on WWE '13, the very last THQ WWE game!
It's wasn't the last THQ game. Wwe 2k14 was developed by THQ they just changed the name last minute.
Can we all take a sec to thank WWE for Giving the Undertaker a 98 rating. GOAT
I remember in this game you can put a ladder on your head and use it like a helicopter and attack everyone around you
Something I don't get is why after this game they removed some of the best features from TLC matches and never to be seen again in future wwe games

Man, this video brought back memories. It’s very special to me since it’s my first ever wrestling game. I remember playing universe mode thinking it was exhibition, and always either getting attacked by a rival or seeing the rival with a ticket in the crowd😂. Road to Wrestlemania is probably my favorite mode of all time and the Rey Mysterio one is my absolute favorite; since Rey was my favorite wrestler at the time. And I used my created wrestler to beat the Streak⚡️. Royal rumbles we’re always a blast, and creating finishers were lit. Drew McIntyre, shad, and Evan Bourn’s theme songs are engraved in my memory. Til this day I still love playing this game and it will always hold a special place in my heart💯

Thank you for sharing the great memories of playing the games, WWE Universe and Create a Finisher is definitely the best culmination of feature for the series, i remember getting random scenes that plays just so perfectly in the universe, and creating a wacky finishers, its so much fun, as RTW goes, its awesome, its fluid, definitely the best SVR game, and one of the best Wrestling game
Can we all take the time to appreciate how much time gifs puts into these videos and thanks for all the memories🙏
You forget as well, as you played through universe mode, you would gradually unlock alot of superstars, Yoshi tatsu and Finlay I remember definitely were introduced through a second match after a random match, introduced by Vince McMahon and actually being challenging
Pure nostalgia, those unlockings
Please do a video on WWE All-Stars if you liked it.
I'm sorry, man never played it but I got a copy so I’ll definitely make a video on it :)
That game was on STEROIDS😂😂
2k and ea single handedly ruined so many games its insane remember when we actually had fun games like this
I think this is the best wwe game ever made, not the best pro wreslting game but best wwe game at least
Back when they actually have the Create-A-Finisher mode where you can customize your own finisher and doing wacky kinds of finisher. Those were the best times in SVR. Glad that the only few 2k series that I kind of like is 2k14, 2k17 and 2k19. That's it. The rest of the 2k series is full of shit. Miss SVR so much.
Of the 2k series I've only played 19 and 20, 19 was an enjoyable game, 20 has been one of the worst games I've ever bought, thanks God I didn't pay 60 for it
What about 2k16?
Damn that kick push instrumental added to the nostalgia of the video
“We miss you Yoshi Tatsu” Lmfaoo I don’t. 😂😂

Too bad the AI was horrible. If the AI used their kip-up, you knew that you would win the match in one groggy move. If you ened up attacking the AI before a match (via universe) , if you pin them, they typically wont kick out. Also, if your opponent initiated a grapple hold, just keep mashing RT/R2, you will always reverse the grab because the game has no reversal timing with grapple holds. If you enjoy having the AI lose to an arm drag or a foot stomp, this game is for you. Only thing i enjoyed was the weapon physics and the fact that we can FREELY customize a caws attribute settings...
The only wrestling game series with great AI is Fire Pro.
The fact that you could choose to include universe mode into normal exhibition matches made this one of the best wrestling games
