Fight Night Round 3.

[masterdirector]

The new video looks amazing!!!! Jermain Taylor's jab actually looks like JT's Jab. No one else pops it out like that, and they put that in. That's ****ing cool.


I think that means that individual styles are being represented somewhat.

I'll say this. Their legs actually move, that's a good sign. But they're moving very slowly in that clip. And then when they do move, the movement is still all choppy. The Fight Night series has yet to show any fluidity, which is probably more due to crappy, quickly done animation, but they need to fix it.

Hell, just go grab a copy of Victorious Boxers 1 for the PS2 and you'll see what I mean. That game has better movement than any EA game. I really wish EA would just hire that staff and give them similiar software. I'll try finding some VB video.

Okay found some at gamespot:

okay make sure to check out Video 7. Watch how the guy in the white & blue trunks is in the Peek-a-boo style. The leopard trunks guy is in a more open style. his legs are spread further apart and his guard is down. And the difference in the way the two move is very apparent. They even throw body hooks differently!

And then check out video 10. Again, the other guy has a boxer-fighter stance throwing combinations of hooks and straights (even though he gets his ass beat). Then the black dude who is in the same basic stance throws almost exclusively hooks like Foreman or something.

Then video two shows a guy in the gym who is a counter puncher. Well, Ippo takes care of him, but yeah. You'll start kind of getting what I'm talking about.

Check out the latest video. Looks so slow, wtf? Still too short to notice any real differences in styles there.

That's not in real-time, it even says "ESPN Mode" or something.

Finally some video of Victorious Boxers All-stars for you, not VB1 or VB2, the game after VB2.

Notice the footwork, the stances, everything. Both fighters have unique styles. Watch this video a few times. No way EA matches this game's gameplay, not for FN R3.

looks ominous to me. the graphics look good yep, animation better ok. these guys put frazier as a ****ing southpaw remember. they have combined too many rocky elements in the game, they need to make it more realistic. and i dont care if it will get a 'mature' rating, wipe the ****ing blood from ur fighters face would you? frazier and ali move in the same basic style, haymakers were weak this 'ive just been rocked' mini game sounds ****e. and i hope they dont go ott with facial expressions, making duran and ali looking scared and **** like that, that wud kill it, and there needs to be around a 100 more boxers.
i just hope they get someone who knows about boxing in on this game, cuz that kudo guy seems to have picked boxing out of a hat, 'this looks cool,' they need competition like a 'pro evo' to keep them on their toes, cuz its guna take em a long long time til they make a truly great boxng game at this rate. sorry, lil rant there. but i was thoroughly pissed off by the last 2 games. yo kudo? see my picture. Frazier- Orthodox YEAH? ****wit

Fight Night Round 3, looks really good. I think it will be the best of the three. I just wish they could have included Mike Tyson and Zab Judah.
