Anyone try the Fight Night Champion demo yet?

devilg, spot on

This game is absolute polished shyt.

Foot work is the worst shyt I've ever felt in a Fight Night game, the camera is ******ed at best, EVERYTHING FEELS SLUGGISH!! If I wanted to play a boxing game with sluggish control...I'd pick up a copy of Don King's Prizefighter

Couple that with no improvements that the fans wanted and a story mode they pulled out of their ass

Absolute BS,

[Evil Abed]

i thought it was an improvement gameplay wise over round 4. but the venue's, ring walks, are just a copy of round 4. i know it's not a big deal, and DEFINITLEY doesn't affect the game for me, but it would just be cool to see ****m walk with mosley/hopkins, and roach and maybe even buboy walk with pac.

The 1-2 works like a charm!

I was making the comment earlier while playing.

Would it kill them to throw in Roach and ****m?

The commentary is also copy and paste from the last game for the most part.

They should have gotten HBO crew.

The gameplay seems off-balance at first, especially against the comp, but go online and play somebody who is overall good at FN and its ****ing awesome.

Hint Hint; tap the L button slightly instead of pushing it to the right to move the fighter. Especially as Tyson. Early KO. Me and my boy had 3 all out slug-fests. Crazy back and forth gameplay.

I've read alot of bad reviews here. In every installment there is something new to get used to. I'll download it tomorrow. Great series. I hope it's not

2K sports should attempt a boxing game.

they nearly took out Madden with (NFL 2K3), then EA felt threatened and monopolized the whole thing

2K sports took out EA with the NBA 2k series, forcing NBA Live.Elite into temporary retirement lol

bottom like, im no 2K fan boy nor do i play games as much anymore, but 2K sports seems to have the formula for success

plus, its always better to have TWO games on the market

I guess that's when you know a game is a fail; the fact that you and others didn't even realize that 2K sports did make a boxing game like 2 years ago, called Don King Presents: Prize Fighter. The demo featured Luis Collazo vs. Joe Calzaghe. That right there speaks for itself. lol.

I hope they have some way of turning the commentary off. I remember having to turn my volume down, because I couldn't stand the fight commentary and the things atlas said anymore.

Some rounds they'd make it sound like you were doing well and winning the rounds, so of course you'd think to keep doing what you were doing. Then when the cards came out, it would show that you didn't even win the rounds they were praising you in.

And yeah how hard is it to get roach or any other famous trainer in there. It's not like they're saving some money to get us a better list of fighters to fight with.

I like what I've played so far.
a lot of improvements the controls for punching need a little tweaking and the footwork could use a bit work
but overall I think its better!

I think they're still gonna change a few things like pac. His shoes. They're not matching lol

Im been playing the demo for 2 days now, and I must say at first it was hard getting used to the blocking change and also the high low modifier. But Now that Ive got the gameplay down a little bettter, game is definitely improved over FN4, which I loveand still play. If you Really learn it and play with a strategy instead of just throwing punches, then you ll find a great boxing game. Working the jab and keeping your punches up, def sick. And with the new full spectrum control you can throw punches alot faster, which makes for some sick combinations to b able to pull off. Another awesome feature is th ereal animations that they gave pac cotto ali and tyson. All move and throw just like the real boxers. The way Pacman throws his jab and straight is just like Pacman. Same with Cotto. his left hook to body, when you throw it with full authority and pressing forward, sick! Still getting used to it, but Im def satisyfied after playing for a couple hours and getting the hang of it.
