Jaw dropping graphics and the incredible engine from last year's game, Fight Night is still the top boxing game!
User Rating: 8.5 | Fight Night Round 3 X360
Fight Night Round 3 is great, but not everything about it is great. Let's start with the positive. First of all, as you might notice, this game brought the first true next generation graphics on the Xbox 360 last year. Yes, it still looks incredible... stunning! It looks amazing graphically. The gameplay that you should know by now if you're familiar with the series is still here and it's still rocking. With some new punches added, the gameplay still feels fresh, but a little too familiar if you've played Fight Night Round 2. The career mode is still the same, you create a boxer or play with an existing one and you go from one fight to the other fight. Win titles and move on. Here's where the problems start, it's too repetitive. The matches sometimes seem to drag on for too long and that makes the whole experience kind of boring. The career mode feels like it lacks effort from the creators. It's too dull. They could've at least added some cutscenes or more different ways for the boxer to enter the ring. It's too repetitive.
There's also a great multiplayer mode if you want to challenge the whole world and prove that YOU're the greatest of all time.
Overall, this is a great game and a must-buy for boxing fans that own an Xbox 360/PlayStation 3.
