I have been playing the UFC demo a lot on expert mode, and i think i probably won 1 out of 100 times because I suck at the reversal from the mounted position. I wish the reversal system was a bit easier or a little more responsive...maybe its the fustration talking, but damn. Poor Chuck is always getting hammer fisted by shogun on my tv. I wanna make it stop.
[QUOTE="The_Unknown_B"][QUOTE="Rozik_Ritclave"]On-line gaming is a big gift for me. My two sons live with their mother 400 miles away, and if it wasn't for our XBOX LIVE subscriptions I wouldn't get to spend as much time with them as I do. They both lived with me up until a couple years ago, so we used to spend a lot of time together, but after high school they decided to live with mom. Now we spend a couple times a week playing over LIVE. Yeah, ya have to deal with some trash talking morons, but we tend to just play with a small circle of friends or ignore the a-holes. With the party system on LIVE, we don't even have to listen to the a-holes anyway.webbut
I never looked at it that way, thanx man. In a way that kinda touch my heart. Hope you and your kids keep enjoying urselfs and spending some kinda of communication and time together. Yeah this is how i look at it. Im going off to college soon and like my friends and go to someones house every weekend and mess around mostly playing games xbl and other online services will let us continue from miles away. and glitches are sometimes very good things adding fun and skill to games. What would fighting games be without combos? A combo isn't a glitch, a glitch is like something common found in a sports game for example Fight Night round 3 you can be pounding a guy with hooks and uppercuts for nearly 6 rounds, some guy could jus sit there and hit u with jabs and no variety of punches. Somehow in the course of a fight (this happen to me) i lost by knockout but on the fight total it showed I landed 120 out of 220 hooks 65 uppercuts out of 80 and 10 haymakers with 110 jabs out of 220. My opponent only landed 300 out of 560 jabs. 2 hooks out of 5, and no uppercuts or haymakers. In a real life boxing match, even if you looked on paper u can tell who won, I had the guy looking like a mess but it didn't knock him out once but his constant mashing the button for a jab put me down for the count? unrealistic and a glitch. I hope it made the glitch thing clear for u, and u believe that displays skills huh?
I always dreamt of a day were PS3 players and Xbox360 players could take on each other in a cross platform online battle. A game like SFIV or Madden, so that all can put there skills on a true gobal competition. The best of both systems can be displayed and so many players who dominate one system can see who there skills measure up to others. I know this concept seems a bit far fetched and I'm a dual system owner and accept both my PS3 and X360 for there incredible capabilities. But it would be nice to take on opponents from all angles to display our gaming skills to the world.

I honestly think it will be an 8.4-8.8, because it has good techincal skills for players to learn, simulates the sport well. The lack of styles which I am reading about well probably come back to bite it, and how difficult it can be to escape some of the submission positions. Other then that well balanced game play and look forward to the game when If I have the cash come May 19th.
I believe this game has great potential when it comes out, hopefully they'll be more downloadable styles or something to increase depth and gameplay but I'm gonna buy this game the first day. The only thing I have a gripe with is the reversal system on the ground, its near impossible to escape when your on the recieving end of the mounted postion. Maybe with practice I'll get better but its sad to see Chuck take a beating to Shogun on the ground...even though Chuck gets beaten on the regular now. If anyone can give me an easier way to escape then the tutorial showed me I'd appreaciate it, but this game is gonna recieve a high 8 or a 9 because its so skilled based and doesn't seem to have any unbalance gameplay from what I have experienced.
Online gaming has become a central part of a gamers experience nowadays. Most publishers are demoted and criticize if they don't put in some form of online components, be it a multiplayer campaign or some kind of battle mode feature in a single player game. Many enjoy online because it brings them back to an age where people looked for grand challeneges at a local arcade. A gift from online media and gaming is the feature of downloadable content, and being able to play with people from all over the globe. Unfortunately there is curses too to such a good thing for the gaming world. One of these problems is the exposure of a games flaws is more suspitible because of the gamers who religious play there favorite game, looking for any exploit or glitch they can use as an advantage to win. An example of this is in most sports game (madden - the zig zag running back passing play, Fight Night Round 3 - the rapid jab, NHL - the squtter near the goalie). This also happens in fighting games a lot too, where terrible unbalanced fighting rosters are dished to the public. 1st person shooters aren't too effected by this, but some are unbalance themselves. Another one these curses is the headset, what is being said on the games are uncalled for and shows a reflection of where the times, and how someone reacts when they can't be touched by someone. So many racial slurs, so much unneccessary cuss words, it makes me wonder what was the purpose of the headset. Sure to give orders to your team, but i guess when it comes down to it the worlds is a hardplace and full of a-holes, and nothing i say can change that. Last, some publishers don't even try on single player anymore. It almost feels as if the multiplayer is the meat, and the single player is jus put in as the side course. I feel like some of these reason have become a blight on gaming, I guess I have been losing too much to make me write this but I feel like gaming was never like this before for good and bad times. In the arcades I guess some guys held back on too many cheap tatics in fear of getting beat up, or maybe my skills in gaming deminish, but I'm in fear that too many aspect of the gaming have follow the trend of music, I fear its going too commercial and too unregulated and untested. I hope for the day we see more respect online and more consciousness on developers for balance.
