Legacy Rules.... Online Blows!

User Rating: 8.5 | Fight Night Round 4 X360
I'll make this quick. FN4 looks really nice and plays pretty well in the "Legacy" mode.... but Online the game is a total waste of time if your looking for Strategic BOXING! It's a total mash fest online even though you are forced to use the R Stick controls. Idiots online just throw 50 of the same punch in a Mashing fashion and their Stamina barely drains making the game as far from realistic Boxing as you can imagine. The online portion of the game is like the boxer Butterbean... no skills... just hammer away. Total waste of time online if your a true fan of the 'Sweet Science'.

Legacy mode is where it's at and where it score on my judges card. The created Boxers you can DL online like Rocky, Holyfield, Borat etc.... is cool too... and you can put them in your Legacy mode! Overall this is a good game... but the online will tick off purist of the sport with the exploits and non boxing tactics that get abused. But if you fine just playing the Legacy (1Player mode) and just fighting your friends and family in multiplayer.... the game is totally worth picking up. Just don't bother wasting your time with the disaster that the online portion is. FN4 Devs should be ashamed of how this game plays online. It's pathetic how the AI works online.
