They need to fix the anti climatic finishes.

We usually give an opinion once we’ve AT LEAST tried both games but whatever. And the game is still in development.

Striking looks choppy, but the ground game looks good. Also, where’s the ref? That kinda bothers me if the ref is only present during cutscenes.

i hate the way punches and kicks look

and honestly how can u make a fighting game if the punches and kicks suck?, sure the grappling looks cool but seriously after all the complaints that fight night round 4 had with punches looking very weak they went out and made the strikes look worse?

ufc 2010 is somewhat flawed but the patches should fix most issues ive had and at least in that game i get to play as the best fighters and get the satisfaction from landing powerful clean strikes

i may be nitpicking here but i cannot understand a fighting game that has such a crucial part of the game so horribly flawed

We have a saying back home that if your coming on, COME ON!!!!

UFC 2009? I still hope they do something for those strikes, even if I don’t do stand up in MMA games, it’s cool not to fight a robot.

there was a post on their official forums from a one “EA Rocky” that said he talked to the guy in charge of standing kicks or something like that and said they were working on improving it. He also pointed out that they are still in pre-alpha.

Whether that is BS or not I dunno but I hope the striking improves as well. There is a vid out there of Nick Diaz fighting Frank Trigg and Nick Diaz’s striking looks pretty much dead on to how he really does it.

I was really looking forward to this, but it honestly just looks like garbage.

Looks pretty cool to me.

The stand up is pretty terrible looking. Take the stand up and clinch from Undisputed and the ground from here and we’ve got ourselves a pretty purdy game.

Not that I condone facism or any ism for that matter. Isms are in my opinion, not good. A person shouldn't believe in an ism, he should believe in himself.

I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me". Good point there, after all he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. Wouldn't change the fact I have to bum rides off of people.

The clinchwork and TDs looked more sophisticated than Undisputed 2009 (haven’t played 2010 yet). The striking looked a tad slow, but if it uses the same basic engine / concept as FNR4, it is going to be pretty awesome. Also I hear the damage engine is going to be based on FNR4; I love seeing the results of a good pulverization.
