WWE Smackdown v RAW 2011, 192p
Our guide has information that has never appeared in a WWE strategy guide before. Check out the Tactics section starting on page 86. Info such as the Reversal Windows (the amount of time a player has to reverse, or “counter,” an attack made against them) are major scores. Reversal Windows are key. In the WWE game a player can reverse just about attack made against them. If they can time it right, they can go through a bout unscathed. These details (along with our other behind-the-scenes technical information) will appeal to hardcore fighter players, it’s the kind of information they crave so they can refine their play. Without this info WWE franchise may have been a pass for many hardcore fighter fans. But Prima’s guide has these vital details that can really improve a player’s enjoyment of the game.
Along with attack details Prima also has damage tables (page 87) to show just how much damage can be done by special attacks and objects. Plus tables revealing how a Superstar’s different attribute ratings affect the damage they can do. Using this information will give players a leg up on picking their characters, choosing their attacks, and deciding how to gauge their opponents’ strength.
The Prima Guide’s walkthrough for the Road to Wrestlmania single player game is as complete as it can get. There are detailed runthroughs of all four Superstar paths as well as the Vs. Undertaker path. Plus, as you know, there’s a Time Machine in WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011 that allows players to take alternate timelines in each walkthrough. (See page 59 for an example of a triple timeline week). Our guide covers every alternative plus every side story. And players need to follow all the side stories in all the timelines to make sure they unlock everything available in Road to Wrestlemania. With so much to unlock (detailed in our unlockables section starting on page 189) players can’t afford to miss a single thing in the single player games.
