OXCGN was able to attend the launch night for Smackdown V's RAW 2010 in Sydney recently, and it was a riot. The gamers got right into it with face-painting to look like some of the Smackdown/RAW characters, plenty of copies of the game for giveaways, and Sony Slims to have some fun on.

Oh, and lots of lovely ladies, almost forgot them. So slip over and take a look.

Ah, wrestling. At one point in our lives, many of us may well have been glued to our television screen writhing in agony as we watch our favourite wrestler defend the title belt in a thrilling match full of high risk moves and more sweat that you can find on a footy field in summer heat.

However, after awhile the sport gets stale and story-lines get a tad predictable and boring- which is sort of what the Smackdown vs Raw franchise has been the last couple of years.

That isn’t the case with the latest in the franchise, Smackdown vs Raw 2010, and our good friends over at THQ decided to throw a little costume launch event to celebrate not only the release of the game, but also allow us to appreciate it, for the latest in the franchise finally rises above the rest and shows it can still perform.
