I played Fight Night Champion right before playing Undisputed and this is what I came up with:

Graphics are much better on Undisputed, from character likeness to lighting and frame rate (which is expected considering FN is two console generations ago).

Commentary is better on Fight Night. Presentation is better overall as well, but that’s almost expected with EA Sports having a bigger budget.

I’ve only had two matches, and I was effective with Ali against Frazier, but when I picked Roy Jones against Nigel Benn, I couldn’t block his punches and my punches weren’t very fast or snappy. I ended up getting knocked out.

Controls are very similar to Fight Night, but I gotta get used to using the left bumper to body punch when on Fight Night, it was the left trigger (which also was used to weave).

- Wish there were more camera angles. As of now, there are only 4. My favorite camera angle on Fight Night was the broadcast cam where you actually moved around the ring without the ring rotating.

- For a game that’s billed as a simulation, I wish there weren’t so many camera wipes. I want to be able to get penalized for punching after the bell. When a fighter throws a wild punch where there body turns, I want to be able to punch them with their momentum and send them down (even if it doesn’t hurt them). Seems like most knock downs are due to a really good punch that hurts the fighter or an accumulation of damage.

- I know there are licensing issues, but we need to have venues in Vegas and New York.

I know clinching and no ref in ring are things they may add in a future patch. Seems pointless to have Kenny Bayless when he is only present pre fight, during knock downs and post fight.

They also need to make the HUD more customizable. I started a fight and put it on simulation. Little did I know that meant I wouldn’t be able to see the time. Also, you can’t change it through the pause menu.

Game seems to be going in the right direction, but as of now, I’m not impressed. I’m hopeful it will improve with future updates.
