How to Decide
WWE Raw is known as the first WWE title released on the original Xbox, catering to wrestling fans and retro gamers. The alternatives split into a few clear camps: WWE Raw 2 leans on a larger 60‑plus roster and new match types like Hell in a Cell; WWE WrestleMania 21 is chosen for its full WrestleMania 21 lineup and four‑player split‑screen support; WWF SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role stands out with its Tornado Tag Team mode and backstage venue variety; WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007 differentiates itself with an analog control system and online multiplayer with voice chat.
When weighing these options, focus on three concrete factors that actually differ: the breadth and era of the roster (e.g., Raw 2’s 60+ superstars vs. WrestleMania 21’s event‑specific lineup); the variety and uniqueness of match types (Tornado Tag Team in SmackDown! 2, Hell in a Cell in Raw 2, analog‑driven gameplay in SmackDown vs. Raw 2007); and the multiplayer experience offered (local split‑screen for up to four players in WrestleMania 21, online voice‑chat play in SmackDown vs. Raw 2007, versus pure local split‑screen in the others).
