pretty cool blog...i've said it before i love these things...

i dunno why the ref stopped it when Brock smashed Nog in the game...Nog was just getting warmed up...

i'm not sure how i feel about the game...it doesn't look realistic at all

The graphics look great, but unfortunately for us MMA/video game fans.... out of all the sports that have video games (almost all) a UFC would be the hardest imo to make a realistic game of.

So many variables, so unpredictable, the last few for ps2 felt more like WWE games.

I hope to hell its good since ill be buying it for 360 when it comes out but i dunno....i just think it'll be hard as hell to make it feel realistic.

i agree, thers so many differant aspects to MMA and there are only so many buttons on a controler and only so much they can do in the game, i think the stand up will be pretty good but im not sure about teh ground game, how they would do submissions and how they would make certain guys e.g nog better then others on the ground when your figthing,
i hope the punch combo to takedown transation works smoothly on that game and the takedown defence

yeh...games like baseball and tennis are easier to simulate....hockey isn't realistic at all...they have really really good graphics, but it doesn't look like a real NHL hockey game at all....

this looks like it will be a lot of fun, but its realism will be lacking alot....

lol at brock throwing body kicks

Luckily THQ is involved. Of the wrestling games, theirs were always the best, imo. I think a UFC game could be done extremely well. The previous titles of the genre, both UFC and Pride, were very mediocre. The biggest problem, as soon as you go to the ground it was over. A one or two button submission with hardly any defence, it was over. With the last Forest/Rampage videos, it showed a lot of different escapes and just overall ground positions. It looks like they're really trying on this one, and everyone involved, including Dana realized all the previous ones sucked balls.

Me and my brother played the Dreamcast UFC game for a insane amount of time. But then we tried some PS2 ones and didn't like any, also tried the Pride PS2 game and it was also Meh.

I'm a hardcore gamer.. and I must say.. the animations are NOT solid right now. Sure, they have most of them perfect, but some that bother me: After Nog throws the kick and gets KO'd (lol Nog getting KO'd) His leg snaps back to his knockout animation, this is next gen graphics.. and I hope they fix this little error.

Although.. it's still in production, so what can I say?

I wouldnt mind that if it was only for the escaping and finishing Submissions part, since it will sort feel like your trying to escape.
How else could you implement escaping submissions in a game?

I just hope that if you press the combination for a triangle choke or whatever, you dont suddenly have them in that choke. I hope theres like a right time or wait an opening before you can attempt the move sort of thing.

I think the game looks better than anything i imagined a MMA game would look, taking into account that its probably the hardest sport to simulate in game by far.
I am truly looking forward to this game.

I just wish people would stop thinking about past mma games when they give their thoughts on this one. The new gen systems are capable of so much more than the past systems. From what we've seen so far it looks great and I will hold of most opinions until I play the game or read some reviews

Pride FC was a decent mma game, the biggest problem was the lack of positions. There was no side mount, no half guard and other guard variations, and the clinch was bad. I hope this game will improve those things, even if the graphics aren't the best.

Of course, it is the best mma game ever. I was just mentioning the things they should improve. But you gotta admit the clinch was a bit weak, you had extremely limted options, all praise for having the clinch tho.
Example: Hendo is great in the clinch yet you had no greco throws he implements in fights.
You are right about the roster. But otsuka's moves were great:)

Well, after about 4-5 go's I'm sure the series will get better. Problem is the ground game would be practically impossible to properly create. Also, are you going to give fighters individual stats and they are only able to do certain things with those stats. And if you do what if they improve in that department.

Just too many variables to take into consideration to make a real MMA game.

Guys just take it for what it is, an mma themed fighting game. Fighting is one thing that is hard to simulate in a game even fight night round 3 which was compared to a lot of other boxing games a simulation was still really unrealistic but it was fun, so lets hope that the UFC game is at least fun

is it just me or did dana look fatter after he ate that meal

on the game the graphics look really good from what I can see. However the fighting looks so bland. When brock was exchanging punches with nog it looked retarded. they didnt clinch up when they were basically making out. I donno some stuff needs to be gone over hopefully dana points that out to them.

how many eggs did he eat, thats the weak version of 'warrior food' lol


game looks good, obviously it will have its glitches, its the first real attempt from them but maybe it will get better as they continue to release them, and sort nog's chin out please.
