WWE to offer Co-Op Tag Team Storyline

News | November 9, 2008 7:14 pm
To those of you old enough to remember the greatness that was the Hart Foundation or British Bulldogs, then WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 will have special appeal for you. For the first time, the game will include a co-op Tag Team Storyline in addition to sharing of user created content and the first time the game will have DLC. I hear that Hektic has a special place in his heart for the Killer Bees.
