| infamous8 said: One more thing I just noticed .... There is no SOUTHPAW STANCE in this game? WTF? How can you be a professional developer making a huge name game, and not include Southpaw stance? All the lefties are fighting as righties in this game. So much for realism. Just goes to show what I pointed out before... the devs of this game don't know much about MMA. Cro Cop is fighting as a righty. LOL. I find it completely unprofessional of the dev studio. That stuff might fly in WWE games, but in MMA it's crucial.. again... casual MMA fans wont notice the difference, and wont care. But I do. |
I would be willing to bet you are the casual mma fan an just took complaints off a MMAforum and posted them as your thoughts here.
THQ released a statement as to why their are not southpaw fighters, also a reason why Clay Guida is not in the game, even though he was suppose to be.
I am a hardcore MMA fan, that hardcore fan in me goes further then just UFC, because UFC is not MMA. I use to do interviews with fighters for www.mmanews.com now i am just a admin for the forum. So i have a little more credit when i say I am a hardcore fan.
It does bother me that guys like Rich Franklin do not fight southpaw but at least THQ gave the reason as to why.
An to your statement saying this is just a WWE game but with mma moves an a cage, lol thats to funny. Could say that about any fighting game. Could say it was basically FNR 3 without the ground game.
To say all you need to do is head kick head kick an repeat just makes me think you have no idea how to play the game. Sure if you play the game on easy you can get away with just the head kick, but if you play it on more advanced levels or anyone that has any idea of how to play that head kick shit don't fly.
Anyway enough with you.
I give the game 7/10
I found the career mode pretty weak. I don't like that the fighters don't age, i started at 18 and when Dana forced me to retire i was still 18. Not to hard to make the age go up with the years. Basically by your 10th fight, all you do is train rest train rest an so on. Once your cardio an speed is maxed, there is no point in working on those as they do not go down over time.
Most of the background announcing from past events an interviews get annoying fast.
After a while in career mode you know exactly what the certian fighter will do, for example Thales will just go for take downs. They should have mixed it up a bit.
But i will agree that not being able to use a UFC fighter in career mode is retarded.
I feel they released this game to see what people would say an what there reactions an complaints were and fix it with ufc 2010 which from what i have heard is already being worked on.
