Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 In Your House?

The fine folks at THQ have delved deep into the WWE's past to bring their newest match to Smackdown vs. Raw 2011. The concept of "In Your House!" is exactly as it sounds: players will wrestle inside and outside a large, suburban home.

All the rooms you would expect to be in a home are present, including the kitchen, living room, bedrooms, bathroom, garage, gym, and laundry room. Each room has different "hot spots" that trigger unique moves. For example, the player will be able to give their opponent a classic "swirly" in the bathroom, while a unique move in the laundry room will see the player bashing their opponent's head in with the dryer door. Our favorite, however, are the multiple garden tools in the garage. It's something you'll have to see to believe.

Two outdoor environments can also be unlocked during career mode: front yard and pool-side. The front yard has access to the street and passing cars, while the pool-side allows the player to perform turnbuckle moves from a diving board.

Throughout the mid-90's, WWE held many Pay-Per-Views using the tag-line "In Your House!" Several commercials produced during this time inspired THQ to bring this mode to life. "In Your House!" will be a separate match option in exhibition mode, while also playing a part in one of the Road to Wrestlemania story lines (think Triple H invading Randy Orton's home a few years back). We'll keep you updated as more info is released!
