Fight Night 4

Anyone have this yet? It looks pretty good to me. I have to admit however that I am not that knowledgeable of a boxing fan, I only know of the very popular boxers Ali, Tyson, Fraser, etc. I might turn into a boxing fan though if I pick this one up.  Looks like you can create your own boxers too. Definitely would make Rocky Balboa.

The Create Boxer feature in FN3 was great, so I expect it to be decent in FN4 too.  I'm hesitant to buy it until they allow face-buttons to be mapped for controls.  I'm not a fan of the analog stick control for 4.  I'll be renting it from the local library so I'll get a week to try it out.

For another fighting/sports game, I'd recommend checking out UFC that came out back in May.  My brother has it and it's quite a fun fighting game with a ton of possibilities.

I picked it up and freaking love it. I have never played any of the other Fight Night games so the button controls is not a issue for me. I actually really love the stick for controlling the punches. Don't know how the graphics were in the other Fight Nights but in this one they look extremely realistic. It almost looks like you are watching a real boxing match and not playing a game. The sweat, bruising and bleeding is spot on too. The muscle flexing really tripped me out. I also understand that because of the highest poly count this game has, when you put your face into the game your mind will be blown. Providing you are using a high quality digital photo of yourself. I don't have Xbox Live so I guess I have to get that now. Fun stuff.

I own the game.  Biggest downfall to it in my opinion is the lack of tattoos for create a boxer.  Tats are quite common with boxers

As a boxing fan and a Fight Night fan, I am thrilled at the depth and amount of realism in this game in comparison to the others in the series.  The AI has taken a gigantic step up.  The physics engine makes the punching and body contact more realistic.  The brusing, cutting and sweating is more realistic.  Muscle flexing.  That's just within the gameplay itself.  Legacy Mode, which is the career mode is just bonkers with detail.  There are several champions in all weightclasses.  You can view fight histories of all fighters.  The fight calander and Legacy Central gives you the ability to look at other fighters fighting and rankings.  There's year awards.  There's just sooo much for boxing fans to appreciate it's insane.  EA really stepped up with this title compared to Round 3.  I'm happy with it for one.
