Description
SynopsisYou walk into the cage and the floor pulses with the energy of the arena. Sweat drips down your brow as you step out to the center. The bell rings and the match begins. While sizing up your opponent, you find the weakness you've been searching for. A hook comes from your left and you dodge at the last possible moment. You feel a breeze as his fist barely misses your nose, and you counter with a devastating right uppercut — striking him squarely in the jaw. His head jerks back in a violent motion, spraying sweat into the air before he falls backward to the mat. While you prepare to make your opponent submit, the referee calls it a knockout and the crowd erupts.

I enjoy watching MMA fights from around the world. EA MMA lets you train and fight in gyms and arenas around the world. For example, you fight in Japan, and the ring announcer is the same woman who introduced fighters before they went into the ring in PRIDE. The fighting is great because you fight to your strengths, and try to compensate for your weaknesses in your fighting style. So if you play or create a fighter that is based on Muay Thai and face a Jui Jitsu fighter, you want to keep the fight standing up. The realism is very good in that respect. The other great thing about the game is that you can create your own fighter and upload it onto the EA Servers so other players can download your figher and use them in online fights. You can also download other created fighters as well. The game is great and I highly recommend it.

How can someone review a game that isn't out yet...If your an MMA fan like myself, you would know some of the PRIDE fighters...Even if the game turns out to suck, just the fact of using different fighters then UFC is very cool...Your not an MMA fan....or you have no clue about the sport...I want to see Fador fight..You think that's an A/C.....

But if you have played UFC Undisputed you will be highly dissapointed in the quality of this game. EA, who claimed that MMA was not a real sport decided to create this game in spite of Dana White's UFC being so successful. It's worth trying, but maybe on Greatest Hits.
