I say the Counter windows are much worse, You cannot even have a boxing match with all the circus acts going on.

Just would like to hear your opinion.

I say it's a tie. I know I completely stop playing Fight Night Round 3 because of the parries.

Parries by far.

The counter window sucks too, but nothing was worse than the parries.

Definitely the parries since it's so rare in real boxing to see a parry like that but they were such a part of the strategy for doing well in Round 3.

At least counters actually happen in real life. Also, if you're careful and play defensively, you can still block a counter-punch or evade it, whereas the parries left you totally vulnerable and unable to do anything defensively (if your punch was parried).

No Contest parries..i think the character dies for 3 seconds at a time every parry.. the woooooorst

Parries by far. The counter window is not as bothersome for me. I still enjoy playing FNr4.

hey, you forgot to add an option for hay-makers and all are equally terrible.

Parries....however, but no one can talk trash about Kudo because the counter window/haymakers are almost a gamekiller for Round 4. So everyone involved in Round 4 (from the development team to community leaders) can no longer say a negative word about him because the Round 4 gameplay decisions nearly equal the moronic parries and other goofy stuff from Rd 3.

Parries. The lousy footwork in both games is equally as bad though (Even UFC does this better imo) but that is for another thread.....

They both are lousy arcade-style gimmicks detrimental to their respective game's poor attempts at 'simulation'* of boxing in that they don't belong, however the 3 second "freeze" of parries versus the split second "freeze" of counter-windows makes me despise them more.

*This is what EA claims they are, not me.

You are kidding me right? Fight Night Round 3 was a more horrible game than Fight Night Round 4! Kudo was a DoucheBag! He didn't communicate with the community at all, at least these Developers are open to feedback and I talk to them at least once a week.
