EA Sports MMA Pre-Order Exclusives - "Classic" Frank Shamrock, "Big" John McCarthy and Herschel Walker

Pre-Order EA SPORTS MMA at Walmart, Best Buy or GameStop to receive "Classic" Frank Shamrock, "Big" John McCarthy or Herschel Walker as a exclusive downloadable fighter.
From EA - "The difference between Frank Shamrock and Classic Frank Shamrock is centered around his look and fighting style. Classic Frank fights more like Frank fought in his early career (more focus on submissions and ground game) while the base Frank Shamrock is more representative of his entire career."
Herschel Walker is set return in October or November, against a yet to be named opponent.

It’ll be solid, but nothing spectacular. Kind of the definition of every current gen sports game, at this point.

I hope it's good

If it’s an mma version of Fight Night I think I might be getting it.

Not to mention, that despite the continual yearly releases, most of the sports games EA develop are solid.

Why not give EA the benefit of the doubt? People are acting as if it’s some random, third-party studio developing this game.

by dv8shun on Aug 16, 2010 2:33 PM EDT up reply actions  

EA is developing this game. And if it’s a sports game not called Fifa or Madden then it will have bugs for days. My roommate works for EA as a game tester for EA MMA. NCAA Football, NFS, thecountless horrible kid football games, and even non-sports titles (dragon age) all have way too many bugs. EA goes all out for their major titles, but if it’s not one of those then they tend to act like a third-party studio.

I know it’s made by Tiburon. And they suck.

EA have made plenty of mediocre games

They aren’t exactly the paragon of gaming excellence, being one the most overly commercial and least meticulous developers going.

Just One?

Ok so they buy it at this places to get Frank, Big John OR Herschel so does that mean you onle get one depending where you pre order it? That is stupid if they are only offer one of the fighters.

I’d rather play as Bruce Buffer on my Dreamcast.
