I really like the gameplay, but I hate career mode. It's probably the worst career mode I've ever played, in any game. There's literally ZERO interaction between your fighter and the world around him. I can't see my fight history, I can't really know what's going on (the news section with 1 liners is simply not enough), all the fights look the same, doesn't matter if it's an undercard or a main event title fight. I had a 23-3 score and was a reigning middleweight champion when I was forced to retire because "I wasn't entertaining enough" and I was quickly losing popularity, even though my popularity meter was filling up. Also, 22 of the 23 wins were by knockout so I really don't know how to be entertaining. I only had one KO of the night and zero fights of the night, even though multiple fights went into the 3rd/5th round and still ended with a KO. Also, when you retire the game just says you retired. There's no ceremony, no hall of fame, no real end to you career, just the "choose fight" option turns into "retired".

I honestly can't even describe how disappointed I am with career mode. It sucks even more because the gameplay is incredibly fun and I absolutely love it.
