    Excellent MMA game

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This game is a must have for any MMA fan, but also for anyone that wishes to try something new from the standard button mashing in video games. To start off, this game is very deep. It is no game anyone can pick up and learn everything at first try. Not saying you can still have a blast mashing buttons to your amusement. Simply put, there are two parts to the game, the ground and stand-up. The ground game is probably going to be harder to understand. This is where the tutorial in-game comes along. It does a very fine job of teaching basic techniques and concepts in the UFC. I myself did not know anything, but now know a bevy of things. What's great about this game is the fact that everything can be countered. The visuals are amazing, especially on a high powered HDTV. The sweat and cuts fighters show look photo-realistic, aside from the create-a-fighters. Many fighters such as Chuck Liddell, GSP, and BJ Penn are in here, as well as newcomers such as Brock Lesnar. It should be noted that men like Ken Shamrock and Randy Couture are absent from the roster. Career mode is where you create your own fighter and take them up the ranks. This mode seems way too hampered by menus, and long loading. This certainly takes away from the experience, as most would like to get to the fighting that makes the game what it is. I also wished that next year would let you use real life fighters in it. A classic fights mode is present, where you must recreate the results of real UFC classics. Any MMA fan would love to unlock the montages of the fights you receive upon completion. Many personalities such as Bruce Buffer, Mario Namasaki, Herb Dean, Steve Mazigatti, two UFC ring girls, and the commentators Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg. These people really add to the brand known as UFC. The computer is just the start of polishing up your skills, the meat of the replayability is online, where all opponents you face have different strategies, which never make this game dull. It should also be noted that the default setting in offline play is beginner; so you should crank up the difficulty if it is too hard, since on beginner the computer rarely counters. Online is addicting, you are constantly wanting to rank up and face challengers. Matchmaking is done so in this, ranked or unranked. You must have a good connection when online though, since lag can make the difference between having fun and countering and seeing who lands the most blows and falls. Despite some faults, this game is superb in delivering intense moments and the feel of a UFC event on PPV.

    Tapout

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Reserved this game a month before it came out for my PS3 and I tell ya well worth the wait because as an MMA fan myself I really enjoyed it whether it's playing against someone or the cpu. The good thing about this game is that there are 80 fighters to choose from, the different wait class, the career mode, and you can also unlock some great fight videos as well. The bad things are navigating through all the menu is really time consuming control is also a little bit difficult when working the ground game and the last thing that bugs me is that it is really hard to submit a cpu opponent when playing career mode but all and all it's a fun game and a must have for every gamer that likes fighting games or if you are and MMA fan.

    This is a truly awesome game. The characters are true to their real life counterparts. It is not just a game that you pick up and beat. You really have to practice. The strikes and the ground game are fantastic. There is a new fighting game in the arena. Watch out Fight Night !!!

    a deffinate knockout!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This game is absolutely amazing! With over 80 UFC fighters and 5 different weight classes, there is always a new fight combination and tons of variety. You can stand up and strike or you can take it to the ground and squeek out a submission or jus pound your opponent. The carreer mode is pretty solid but does have room for improvement. The online mode allows you to fight ur friends or anyone else, would like to see something like Fight Night 4 has with the championship mode and fight for the belt, that would jus elevate UFC so much more. Classic fights mode is a nice look and u can try to recreate of the greatest fights in UFC history. The controls are extremely complicated and does limit the fact that u cant jus pick up the controller and fight ur friends but personlly i like that becuz that way u cant button mash urself to victory like countless other fighting games

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The game is addictive, and it's just the first of its series. I am pretty sure this game will be out with a #2, #3, etc. It takes a mintue to learn the controlls, but once you have a basic idea, you can start beating the $#@% out of people. Best fighting game that has ever came out. Fight Night had great hype when it came out, but look how repetitive the game has become. I can not see this happening with the UFC undisputed. I recommend this game to everyone.

    K.O.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Overall, amazing. However, there are a few things that are not impressive. First, the loading takes longer than any other game, no matter what mode you are in. Also, the sweat, blood and nearly everything else looks real. There are a few times in the game where I can hit the other fighter 50 times in the face and get hit once with a hamerfist and get K.O. These are just minor problems. The ring girls make up for this.

    ULTIMATE FIGHTING AT ITS BEST

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This game definitely sends the blood rushing through the veins. Its very high and intense. You almost forget that you're playing a game. It draws you in so quickly. When you lose you want to get right back in the ring, but the killer blows when your oppoinent is down is awesome! The focus attacks are not to shabby either...lol Great buy. Can't wait to purchase the actually game.

    greatest fighting game i have ever played

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    if you like fighting games you MUST get this game. this has everything a fighting fan would want. some things i did not like about this game were the controls, it took me a while to become familiar with it and in the career mode, everything is about the same, the fighter you go against uses the same tactics as every other fighter, but other than that, just a great game

    Forget SF4, MMA is back!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Wow, I cannot believe this finally came out! Finally, a decent fighting game that is not terribly difficult or horribly easy! I hear the SF4 commercials calling SF the "Original MMA game". Please, thats about as strategic as a shovelware FPS. This is true MMA, grapples, take-downs, blocks, jocking for position, strikes, submissions, and the freakin kitchen sink is in there too. While I do think the controls are good for the game, it will be a little difficult for people new to the UFC to grasp them in minutes. (i.e, repositioning in guard, half-guard etc.) To those of us who really watch the sport, the controls will make sense, while sometimes inconsistent at times, will feel more natural as time goes on. Other than that, the flash knockouts are a little too easy to pull off, and the lack of a middleground between difficulty settings is either too hard or too easy. Good luck, this is as real as it gets!

    good game

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    one thing i didnt like about this game, starting with a new character, i am able to get KO's withing a few minutes, 99% of the time it is with-in the first round. i figured it would be more difficult. the graphics are good, bruises, sweat, cuts and other signs of damage show as a match goes on. the create a fighter is good, though it lacks any real personality as characters typically only wear shorts, so dont expect costumes like smackdown vs raw. overall this game is probably the best fighting game out as of now. it is more deep than smackdown vs raw, and is a more realistic game when it comes to moves, damage, action. worth purchasing, even if you are not an avid UFC fan, which i am not, and even though the game is good, i still wont watch the fights just becuase it isnt my thing. the bottom line, you dont have to be a fanboy of the UFC to enjoy the game, which is a great thing.

    I've only played the demo a million times. I can't get enough of this game. It's so real and the presentation of the game feels real as well. I just pre ordered this game a few moments ago and can't wait to pick it up and play the final product.

    Loads of Ground Pounding Fun

    I had always wanted a UFC game and when UFC 2010 UNDISPUTED came out I went down to Best Buy and bought it on the release date. So far I have started my career and am already in the U.F.C. (about 10 fights). This game is very realistic and exciting to watch or play. I get just as excited watching someone play as I do when I watch the actual UFC fights. The only difference now is when I want the guy to do something, I dont have to yell at the t.v. I can hit the controls and watch my method go to work. AWESOME GAME

    This game is going to be the best fighting game ever. It's going to as if you are actually watching a UFC match on TV. The different moves and fighting styles you can do will be very good. You will be able to choose between striking fighting styles, and grappling. STRIKING - Boxing, Muy Thai, Kickboxing, Grappling - wrestling, jiu jitsu, judo. There are many more things to do in this game. create a figher, career mode, online, classic fights. THERE WILL BE OVER 700 FIGHTERS

    Realistic UFC experience!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This game is simply amazing. It is so much fun to play alone or with someone else. The graphics are incredible and there are tons of fighters to choose from who all look pretty realistic. The game is easy to learn how to play and involves skill, but a rookie could easily have as much fun playing as a veteran in the gaming world. Everything from the knockouts to the tapouts are incredible. If you're looking for a realistic, fun game, then this is the title for you.

    Great game. I played the demo and loved it. The fighting is just so realistic and so are the graphics. Its fun to play against the computer and even more fun playing against a friend. I think it is better than Fight Night Round 4 but they are two different styles of fighting. The UFC game seemed easier to control the fighting than Fight Night Round 4. Overall the game is great and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an exciting fighting game.

    This game is a definite must have if you are a ufc fan or not, if you are into violence this game is ideal for you! this is by far the best game i have played. i bought it at 12 am on tuesday and played it until i had school at 630, its amazing. Its one of those games that you pick up quick after a couple matches and just can't put it down. The realism of it is unprecedented. Nothing can compare to this game to date!!

    This is a great game. you'll get better as you get the hang of the moves.you really need to time your reversal, counter attacks and power moves for an easy win. I play it every night after work and I haven't gotten sick of it since I got on May 19th. Or Maybe because I'm a fan of the sport but I thinks it's for nayone who like fighting. Period. I've been telling my friends to buy this so we can throwdown online :-) ...

    When this game came out, I wasn't expecting much. After playing the game at a friend's house, I left his house and went to go buy the game. Such an amazing game. Every aspect of the game is incredible. Definitely a must buy or at least a must play. The makers of this game really did a great job and should be considered as one of the best games of the year or even the best game of the year.
