Re: PRIZEFIGHTER screens from IGN CALZAGHE
Ok after some digging I found an article I saw a long time ago from doghouseboxing.
The producer was interviewed by Gabriel Montoya, and then took some questions from forum members...but here is the only info as to a potential release:
"GM: When can we expect the next version of Fight Night?
MB: That’s a good question. We are currently figuring that out right now. I can’t give you an exact date. It won’t be within the next year, I don’t believe .The reason for that is that we want to revolutionize that game again. Just like the XBOX 360/ PS3 with the punch and amazing visuals we want to take the next leap for the next Fight Night. I can’t give an exact estimate… it will be within a year from now is my current estimate."
Interview is Feb 7/07, so that estimate is probably off. especially w/ studio issues etc.
here is one other interesting thing that fans want and he comments on:
"GM: I think the main complaint from fans of the game is the career. With Madden doing the whole Superstar mode thing boxing fans are looking for that for their game.
MB: Absolutely. We get that. I think a lot of our users don’t think we read the forums but we do read the forums. We read them religiously we know what people like and dislike. We know that with the career mode there is a desire for us to blow up and make it be an amazing experience. Bring in things like promoters, belonging to a gym, expand training, bring back ratings and do all that kind of stuff that we read about in the forums. We are definitely taking note of that.
Our goal also in the next little while is to get more involved in the forums. So there’s an EA Sports forum out there. There is a group of people who have put out a list of things they want to see in the next version. We are going to be responding to it. We’re going to get involved in the forum to let people know that we do care and we are reading what they are saying about the game. We want to work with the people who love the game to make it the best boxing game ever."

This is the only real info we've had in the last year about this game.
