Re: IGN: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
I think FN round 4 will be a great game, if......
They build the whole game from the ground up. Because R3 sucked ****en ***...........we held several meetings to discuss the future of the franchise. After going through those meetings, it became very clear that the vision I had for the game was different from where the leadership wanted to take it. I parted ways with EA shortly after...Comment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
If FN round 4 has any type of career mode with ranking system, it will surpass Prize Fighter. I can't believe EA left the door this wide open and prize fighter dropped the ball.
When is FN round 4 scheduled to be released.Chalepa Ta Kala.....Comment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
How can you say Prizefighter has dropped the ball when it hasn't even been released yet......If prizefighter gameplay is solid to match its presentation then it will be a hit.EA has had four years to get the FN series right and they consistently dissappoint a lot of fans......FNR3 is a glorified image of the sport of boxing.All EA does is throw good graphics with Knockouts and call it a day.That's there M.O.....they do it with every sports title.Comment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
Prizefighters career mode is linear and what is worse, you lose once and it says GAME OVER. So in essence there is no career mode. I know FN is terrible, but from the sounds of it, Prize fighters career mode will be worse.How can you say Prizefighter has dropped the ball when it hasn't even been released yet......If prizefighter gameplay is solid to match its presentation then it will be a hit.EA has had four years to get the FN series right and they consistently dissappoint a lot of fans......FNR3 is a glorified image of the sport of boxing.All EA does is throw good graphics with Knockouts and call it a day.That's there M.O.....they do it with every sports title.Chalepa Ta Kala.....Comment

You never played the game! I'm from the 2k boards. You can't judge a game that's not even out.Poe is an advocate for realistic boxing videogames.Comment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
Yes he can. If he's (as well as i and thousands of actual boxing fans) are looking forward to controlling and living a boxers life virtually through a career. Prizefighters career mode is the LAST thing we want. It reminds me of the Sega CD days where there are practically no options.
The career mode they're going to give us leaves us with 2 options and thats it. either train hard and have no crowd backing you or go at the media hard and have lacking stats. Thats ridiculously wack considering losing isn't allowed and rematches along with everything else is scripted. Common sense man sheesh. If this scripted story mode also had a seperate actual ranking career mode that we could control then fine. But Im sure it doesn't.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
You are going by reviews of people who are pro EA Fight Night. I think I am the biggest boxing fan here.( I actually boxed for over 13 years). You guys are virtual fans. Please save your judgement for live gameplay and more details. I'm not pro anybody myself. I just want a true boxing sim and EA hasn't attempted to do it yet.Yes he can.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
Dude im on the same boat as you although i only boxed for a year. I've been dying for a boxing sim since at least 92. In america EA has come the closest. give me fn round 3 take away the haymakers and parry's, add speed, tons of boxer attributes, remove the life bar and have knockouts based on skeletal impacts with real physics. and give us a robust career mode with multiple belts and vuala!! The boxing game everyones been dying for.You are going by reviews of people who are pro EA Fight Night. I think I am the biggest boxing fan here.( I actually boxed for over 13 years).

maybe prizefighters gameplay may be tight but a rental is all its gonna get from me. no career mode no purchase."I'm addicted to Video Games, and i chase it with a little OS." -Winston ChurchillComment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
Fight Night Round 3 needed a deeper career mode,more weight classes etc(the things you mentioned);, but it sure was visually beautiful....wasn't it. I think the speed was ok. Just not every boxer throw punches with the same speed.Poe is an advocate for realistic boxing videogames.Comment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
The one thing that FNR3 lacked more then anything was AI......EA Sports consistently drops the ball in that department in all there sports titles.....FNR3 AI was by far the worst I have ever seen.Every fight ends in a knockout,on the hardest level the AI doesn't throw punches at all,every fighter boxes a defensive match every single fight....If your going to give me a robust boxing game with all the bells and whistles,first thing's first,get the gameplay in the ring smooth and fluid and make the AI fight similar to there real life counterpart.....I shouldn't be knocking guys like Duran and Leonard out by the fourth round.....Comment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
A career mode sounds so simple but no one seems to be willing to take it on properly. It sounds so simple to have rankings and make folks move up and down them.
Its a sad day when a handheld has these features and the top next gen systems cant do it.Follow me on Twitter - http://twitter.com/complex219Comment

Re: Fight Night Round 4 In Production
Its incredibly sad. Its also sad that VB2 had the career mode perfect 6 years ago for the PS2. They had every division with hundreds if not thousands of boxers in each division. I don't know what it is, but alot of the games on the 360 & PS3 are lacking the depth of games on the PS2 and handhelds. Its a shame, but even Madden on the DS plays a better football game than on the 360.
I just don't get it, certainly 2k sports would have been reading all the complaints about fight night's career mode, lack of rankings, etc and then they turn around and come out with a fancy version of Punch Out. Sad indeed.Chalepa Ta Kala.....Comment
