Which game for a "newbie" to the series...

Hey everyone...

Just recently started getting into UFC...and I noticed there are 2 video games out there:

MMA and UFC.

Which one is the best game to get (for someone that doesn't know much about the sport).. Graphically? Gameplay? Modes? Are there trny modes? CPU vs CPU (fantasy games?), etc?

Thanks!

You can probably get both UFC 09 and EA MMA for $25-$30 combined now so get both. Try MMA without the patch first. Stay away from UFC 10 though.

EA's MMA is a solid game for sure the control scheme is smoother

Re: Which game for a "newbie" to the series...

I'd go with either EA MMA or UFC 09. UFC 09 was arcadish and bomb heavy, but UFC 10 is even moreso. Rounds in it consist of nothing but one bomb after another until somebody gets knocked out, and I think submissions are even more annoying in UFC 10, because in 09, at least you could pull off a sub by mashing buttons. In the latest iteration, you HAVE to "shine" (rotate the right stick until your controller breaks or something), and it appears to be nigh impossible to pull off subs against the CPU on higher difficulties. I enjoy UFC 10's wacky, cartoonish pace for its fun factor, but it's not for everybody.

Between UFC 09 and EA Sports MMA, I'd say EA MMA is the vastly superior game in terms of gameplay.

Hi,,,
I think that the UFC is better than the MMA on the ground that it has more players,better options and quality graphics...
What do you people think???
