Knocked me out in the first round, the best Fight Night game to date.

User Rating: 8.9 | Fight Night Round 3 X360
I load up a quick match and the first thing that got me was the graphics, in a word - WOW.
When the fight started, I hadn't even realized it did - I thought it was a cutscene or something, but sure enough it was in game graphics.
They're draw droppingly beautiful. The fighters, the enviroments. The only exceptions would be the ring girls and the audience, but thats easily forgivable.

It feels slower then previous fightnights and that takes some getting used too, but after a few rounds this feeling passes.

The sound is also great. Good punches always land with satisfying "thuds". The announcer sounds good, and typically what he says actually has some bearing on whats happening on screen - and it'd have too - by default the HUD is off, so you can't see how much health or energy you have left, nor how much times left on the clock - so you have to rely a bit on what the announcers saying to get the jist of where you line up in a bout.

I haven't played it overly much just yet, but the career mode is decent enough - certainly an improvement over FN1, though I can't vouch for the 2nd Fight Night.

Of course, it's always better to play with friends and in Fight Night it's no exception, multiplayer is a blast.

If you're a fan of boxing and you own a 360, you owe it to yourself to get this game.
