To set a person on fire, you (as previously stated) raise the temperature to max temp. As soon as the temperature reaches 500☏ (or in the EU version 300☌), the player can then begin to set their opponent on fire. To win the player must increase the temperature of the ring by performing more devastating moves. It is similar the real life match which takes place with the ring surrounded by fire coming from gas fed pipes. Raw 2009 is the first WWE video game to include the Inferno match, a match where the player has to set their opponent on fire. The legal player's tag team partner has more of a part to play in this match and will aid the player by holding an opponent on the ropes while on the apron (pictured), and pulling down the ropes for an opponent who is dashing towards them, sending them out of the ring.Teams will now share their own momentum meter, attributes and double team finishers. Additions in the match include new ways of tagging the player's tag team partner such as the hot tag, which can help save the player in the match if they are in trouble, and the forced blind tag, where the illegal partner can tag his or herself into the ring.
One of the game's most prominent features is the enhanced tag team match.
