EA Sports UFC: Early Reviews Good to Mixed

[Slothin247]

I enjoy the game for the most part...hope some things are able to be added (submissions from top, leg damage ending fights for examples. I enjoy playing online so far and career mode is challenging, at the beginning for me almost too frustrating but it got better as my fighter progressed obviously. Overall not a terrible game but if you dont want to accept a mediocre game and have really high expectations I would rent if I could go back and see if the value is worth 60$.

This game is proof that next-gen is just a shinier turd!

Absolutely am loving it.There are some things that are a bummer with it but overal its a really strong first effort. easily 7.5/10, it's a whole lot of fun and visually impressive.

IGN gave it a 6.8

Personally I think IGN's review is pretty spot on. I usually don't put much stock in their opinion though, admittedly.

Maybe they had some type of an agreement that if they were giving bad reviews then they would wait because it may ruin sales? I agree it does seem odd as they are usually quick and that's the only reason I could think of/

6.8 is pretty low IMO... I think the general 7.5-7.8 range is about right for this game.

Career mode does get a bit dull. There's no real point in playing it over again more than 2-3 times (if even that many). There's no storylines... it's essentially just one big tournament of exhibition matches if you think about it. There's no real point in having the sponsors except to change your wardrobe I guess, there's no stories/drama/trash talk really, there's no action outside the ring.

To some, that's fine... but I enjoy having some kind of decision making opportunities in sports games.
