Just bought a shiny new x-box, and got Fight night round 4 and UFC 2009 with it.
The Fight night disc was somehow scratched and didn't work, so had to play UFC instead.
Well, what a game, played it four hours straight last night and was totally hooked, so realistic to look at it's untrue, I actually thought I was watching UFC at one point (it was about two in the morning though, so I was tired), ok, it's never going to totally represent the sport, as there's too many nuances, but they've done a damned good job.
Off topic UFC 2009

Got to agree, Whilst I think on the whole UFC is a load of crap to watch (Not all the time) to play the game is excellent a real good representation and it is great fun to play!
Fight Night 4 is excellent as well although alot of people won't like the joystick control but as I said before a download for the button's is either out now or coming out!
Personally I think the joystick control is rubbish although I can use it easily enough.
Have fun mate!

Been playing FN 4 now for a couple of weeks and loving it, nearly bought UFC last night but was a bit skeptical so left it.

Yeah, the joystick control is highly annoying, and really isn't intuitive at all.Hardhitters11 wrote:Got to agree, Whilst I think on the whole UFC is a load of crap to watch (Not all the time) to play the game is excellent a real good representation and it is great fun to play!

I can play a bit, but if I try and create a fighter it keeps crashing, plus after a few rounds, the same thing happens.
How can a brand new disc out of the factory be scratched for christ's sakes?

You won't regret it, get it, it's amazing. Much more realsitic looking that FNR4 in my opinion.Hagler2002 wrote:Been playing FN 4 now for a couple of weeks and loving it, nearly bought UFC last night but was a bit skeptical so left it.
