      Re: FIGHT NIGHT ROUND 3 IGN REVIEW IS UP!!!!!

      My number one concern is how it plays against a live person sitting beside me.
      My friends come over on the weekends and we booze and box. Both R1 and R2
      provided us with incredible amounts of fun. I expect R3 will do the same.

      My second concern is online play for when my friends aren't around.
      R2 stunk IMO because every fight was a haymaker fest, so I hope
      they improved in this area.

      Third is career mode, I don't really expect much here but hope its entertaining
      for a few days.

      IMO head to head and online is where this game should shine, but I don't
      have much faith in online against random opponents. I'm sure 90% of
      the kiddies will use the same tactic; haymaker or whatever proves to be
      the gimmick in R3.

      BTW, I sure hope they fixed the online match selection so that the kiddies can't select a stock
      boxer and then quickly back up, and select thier 6 foot 9, 350 pound, Andrey the giant boxer...
      That crap made me want to puke, something is wrong with people these days...

        Unbelieveable....This is the same site that sports gamers hate and always diss. But now everyone isn't getting it because of this one review? Let's see 5 different review sites say the game is too easy before saying "i'll pass". Haven't we learned anything about IGN? This is the same site that didn't even know it was possible to turn off cone passing in Madden (plus they said it was too hard to use) and thought the 360 NBA2k6 was WORSE then the current gen version . Personally i'll wait for more reviews before even taking this one seriously. I doubt the reviewer even played the game for more then a few days.

                Cause EA doesn't take size/weight into the equation..Pac mans stats should go down considerably when fighting a HW..& the HW's stats should rise also..Makes no sense..But theb again, neither does Kudo..

                  Your guy's loss I guess.
                  Not buying a game with a broken/shallow career mode is our loss? & the reviewer probally has a 1080p display..Everything scales to 1080p..

                    So far every single review, preview and interview with Kudo himself has said the same things. The career mode is flat and boring and the gameplay is basically the same with a few more unrealistic punches added.

                    You go ahead and throw down $60.00 on a game you haven't seen or played then. I'm sure these guys that are saying they are passing on the game will still end up renting it, but they will no longer be blind sheep and throw their hard earned money at a company that is giving us boxing fans the finger.
                    Guarenteed if Take Two made a boxing game, Kudo and the Gang would sharpen up and actually try to make a realistic game. Until then, our requests will go unheard while the Fight Night series slowly transforms into Ready To Rumble.

                    If anything I think we should put some weight to what IGN is saying. They could be the biggest EA whore on the planet so if they're bashing the game you know it has it's issues.

                    P.S. The fact that Muhammed Ali got KO'd should turn people off let alone that it happened at the hands of a man that is small even in jockey standards. Ali was never stopped once in his career and yet anyone can do it in this series with any fighter. That in itself is a joke.
                    I agree with everything you said, but Holmes TKO'ed Ali..

                      Previous versions of this game have taken this into account. It was damn near impossible to beat a heavy or light heavy with someone from the lower weight classes. I just cant understand why that would change this year. Especially since the only real engine change is the addition of more impact punches.

                      I dont know...I'm just skeptical of iGN. If I read a few other reviews that say the same I may reconsider my purchase but im not just going take IGN's word for it.

                        It's like they forget about the features from last gen when creating next gen.

                          "Obviously, you'll reap the rewards of a 1080i setup with a picture so sharp you can see the fear in your opponent's eyes when you land an impact punch"

                          However, I know it said 1080p the first time I read it. I think the reviewer just got confused or wasn't sure what he was talking about.

                            Why did they wait so long to come clean and change it to 1080i? I don't buy it.. This just reaffirms that from the top down, IGN continues to lie and deceive the American people.
