WWE Smack!Down vs. RAW Cancelled for PS3 Launch
What personally looked like the only decent game for the PS3’s launch (and actually, it’s entire first year) will not be coming.
“Consistent with our goal of delivering the highest quality content across all next-gen platforms, we have decided to postpone the debut of the Smackdown series on PlayStation 3 until the holiday 2007 timeframe,” the company said in a brief statement.
Looks like THQ is just the newest developer in a long list of devs that are having severe problems with the PS3 dev kits.
WWE Smack!Down vs. RAW 2007 will be released for the Xbox 360 later on this year, most likely November. It’s a yearly franchise, so it looks like the PS3 will either never see SDvsRAW 2007, or they’ll just skip it completely and move on to the 2008 edition for next year.

How people are still considering getting a PS3 nowadays is beyond me. Especially with things like this and the fact that PS3 demos at E3 were run on 360s/PCs and no one has even seen a PS3 game for real yet, even though it is getting rediculously close to launch.

I know, I can’t wait until November.

I think that right before (say a week?) the launch of PS3, we need to compile a list of all the news posted about them, good and bad, and make a summary prediction as to its fate. Does that sound interesting? It wouldn’t be too difficult really, and it would make an intriguing article for the site.

Oh, you can bet UNSCleric.com will be having stuff like that leading up to launch and afterwards. Time to give Sony a taste of their own medicine. Too bad Sony still has ties to most every newspaper and media outlet in the USA so it can get all its positive spin out there. I can report the truth on this site all day long, but the only thing that will take Sony out is Microsoft beating them in the games department, and we have that already, so it should be fun to watch how things roll out…I’ll do my part though, you can bet on that.

Can’t wait to re-read Sony’s crap. I can’t wait for Sony’s sheep to flip totally out and have to eat their words…every…last…one.

Also if you can, please make a collection of PS3 game videos at E3/pre-release and then gameplay vids of those same games post-release to see if they match. Most of them, especially for the games shown at E3 05, won’t even be close…

It’s clearly cancelled, the 2007 version has been cancelled and because they’re waiting until next holiday, 2007 will no longer be relevant then thus, 2007 HAS been cancelled. fukn tard.
