New screenshots and Info

[DX Kidd]

Official Boxart (not the best...)

"We selected them for the cover as a means to celebrate the unprecedented level of tag team functionality we will deliver in WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009," Ledesma said. "Our tag team matches will allow players to experience the true task of working together, and our new Road to WrestleMania Mode will feature the franchise's first co-op tag team storyline."

Why not pick a a team who actually still wrestles together to be on the cover...

Here's the 360 cover, although it's exactly the same.

I'm dissapointed they didn't go with the Hardyz, although they too no longer wrestle together and there isn't really any other big tag teams they could put on the cover.

[ALL STAR]

It looks alright its better than last years wonder what the pal version will look like as it is usually a bit different.

[bigpoppn]

Good cover for a probably shitty game.

And "new screenshots"?

Erase that out of the title, now.

[takersfan]

They should have a brothers of destruction edition, but i think it makes sense that there is one guy from smackdown and one from raw and both to be in a tag team-ish.

[bigpoppn]

I'm just hoping that this will NOT mean another DX reunion, even though they're on different shows.

And speaking of having a BOD edition, that would be great.

But then again, they could do the same with EVERY tag team ever created.

[Smacktalks]

Kaienti should be on the cover!

[Aero]

i think its funny how they went with an SD guy and a RAW guy, which makes sense... but then they picked a guy who will most likely be off for a few months soon, and another who, legend that he is, never gets to carry the gold etc. seems like they didnt plan it through.

[Sunny]

Well, I think it's safe to say that this might be the best cover they in comparison to the SvR series. I liked the PAL cover for HCTP too but this one in my opinion tops it.

[ALL STAR]

Yeah i think that is the best one

Well thinking of other smackdown games i miss the old adverts they had for those who havnt seen them

SMACKDOWN

SMACKDOWN 2

[Dynasty]

Decent cover I must say. It beats last year's version of SvR with the blue bg and it just turned out terrible to be honest.

Instead of having DX, they should've put Miz and Morrison since they pretty much dominated the tag team division. This might put out that both HHH and HBK will have the world titles when the game comes out. :2

[Smacktalks]

The covers the best they've had for ages, even if the two people on the cover arent on the same show/tagging. At least they've done away with the blue colorised look.

[Niles Jansen The Third]

Isn't the fact they aren't on the same show the point though?? Smackdown vs Raw - but as well they are a team.

[Subrick]

Kaienti should be on the cover!

Indeed!

And the new cover sucks. Plus for HCTP you Brits got off lucky. Look at what us Yanks got:

[bigpoppn]

I got that one too Subrick (the one you posted) and it's not that bad.

[Niles Jansen The Third]

Yeah suprick, wtf? That box cover is sick.

[Ken?]

This cover confirms something in the near future will stop HHH & HBK from being on TV for a while. Like every other wrestler on past game covers. I'm pretty confident Orton is on the UK Cover.

However this IS the best looking cover they've done so far.
