Jrider can you check if Alex Riley has the TKO as his signature?

Want me to call in a bomb threat at your work so you can go home early with pay?

just watched the 37 min fatal 4 way tlc match between rock, old school christian, cody rhodes and edge and I must admit. After all of the collision hype THQ has been announcing and you being able to hit an opponnent mid move and break up the move like in real life. The video disproves all of this. Dont' know if its because its a fatal 4 way and the game cant compute collision for all 4 people in the ring, but look at the video and you will see ppl air punching opponnents, trying to hit ppl with the ladder and missing and not to mention rock and edge getting thrown off the ladder and both guys falling in the ring and not even falling on the ropes or getting tangled in them. Looks like a step backwards. JRIDER99 have you noticed this in your matches? Or have you actually experienced the new collision system THQ is talking about?

He definitely has it, though it may be his second finisher instead of a signature move

I've seen moves get interrupted plenty of times, even finishers. If anything, I think it's a bit overdone. As far as the targeting goes, it's no worse than previous Smackdown games, in my opinion. Guys will fall into the ropes and out of the ring when pushed off the ladder, but only if the ladder is set up in certain spots in the ring, from what I've seen. I haven't seen anyone actually become tangled in the ropes, though.

Not that I want to get my hopes up, because the past few years haven't been that great with SVR, but from the threads so far, it seems this game is a vast improvement. I'm pretty excited for Tuesday.

I watched it and they seemed to fall fine. Sure, it looks weird in that the guys don't jump off the ladder as it is falling, but they fall where they should in almost all cases. There was one I saw where I thought they should have fallen into the ropes, but I'm pretty sure it is either in the ring or out the ring; there is no in between.
