UFC 2009 Undisputed Full Roster Reveal (Gamespot)

[BSanders]

Gamespot has revealed the full roster for UFC 2009 Undisputed.

Quote:

"Ever since THQ lifted the veil on UFC 2009 Undisputed last year, the game has been a beacon of hope for fans who've been looking for a fighting game that makes the most of the mixed martial arts craze. UFC 2009 isn't the first UFC game--the brand has been in videogames since the Dreamcast days--but, after some missteps on the PS2 and Xbox, it seems like the right time for UFC to make a comeback in videogames, just as the sport's real-life popularity is skyrocketing. Recently THQ came by GameSpot HQ to show us an updated build of the game and, more importantly, give us the complete rundown of every fighter in the game. During the visit, THQ's general manager of product development-fighting Colin Mack sat down with our own Ryan MacDonald to get the full roster rundown and talk about some of the game's finer points."

Nice thank you very much. my favourite fighters are in it so its all good

[Pappy Knuckles]

There are some guys missing that I'd like to see but I really can't complain. This is a pretty good list. Hopefully they'll add more fighters as DLC. Damn this game needs to come out.

Awesome list, I'm surprised that they kept Huerta in there. Sucks GSP can't move weight. No Couture or Cote??? what gives?

[Sheamazin]

What the hell is the "mainiac", Tito, Crocop, and the "Pitbull" doing on this game. Was this game in the making while these guys were under contract?

[DakkoN]

Man.. no Clay Guida

[allBthere]

this number of real fighters is unprecidented. I don't see how anyone could be upset w/ this list --- 82 fighters!!!!!

I'm excited to use kampmann and GSP

****update**** there are about 6 new gameplay vids on gamespot now - chuck vs rua, sera vs hughes, jardine vs a.silva, brock vs nog. I really noticed how nice and crisp the jabs are, chuck does a 1,1,2 that looked great. Not much ground work in these, but it's 100% gameplay w/ no music or effects. There must be some kind of hurry modifier button because you can charge in or back away quickly. Another thing I noticed is that A.Silva did an underhook clich (not a thai plum) meaning I guess you can choose the form of your clinch w/ a thai fighter. When guy get ko'd they look DEAD lol...eyes open, looks really creepy.

one last thing about randy - he recently signed a contract or amendment with the UFC, and it included a videogame rights portion. So he'll either come via dlc, or UFC 2010 or whatever.

The 2 months ahead are going to be tough waiting. In a week or so, I think I'll just try to forget about the game for a few weeks until the demo arrives.

edit*** new vids on ign too including standup tutorial...i'm losing it!
