IGN reviews Fight Night Round 3 !!!

[IwatchBoxing]

7.5 Presentation
No stat tracking or rankings, poor implementation of rivals, menus not as pretty as Round 2. Removing the HUD a fantastic choice that improves gameplay. ESPN Classic is a nice touch.
9.5 Graphics
The most gorgeous models ever seen on a console. Visual emotion actually improves gameplay. Face-rippling replays will give you chills and/or black eyes.
7.5 Sound
Good commentary, but not much added from last year and it eventually becomes repetitive. Mediocre soundtrack, but blistering, mind-numbing punch effects.
8.5 Gameplay
Slow impact punches improves unbalanced haymaker system from last year to create a more realistic boxing experience. The CPU opponents are pacifists -- single player is just too easy.
8.5 Lasting Appeal
Xbox Live and multiplayer saves Round 3 from the sub-par career mode. Against a human, Round 3 is one of the most enjoyable sports titles to date.
8.5
Great OVERALL

If theres no stat tracking, that means this game is made for the internet play.

ps2 version

7.0 Presentation
The essence of boxing has been captured really well by the developers, but essential elements like champion lists, top 10 rankings, and the like are sorely missed.
8.0 Graphics
Excellent polygonal models, solid rag doll physics, and top-notch particles carry over from last year quite nicely. Just don't expect much more than that.
6.5 Sound
The game's soundtrack is good enough and the audio effects actually really good, but the inaccurate and repeating commentary by Joe Tessatore is made worse by its lack of new lines.
8.5 Gameplay
Fight Night has the best boxing mechanics around and continues to blur the division between arcade and sim fighting elements. The new styles, techniques, and punches are all good stuff.
8.0 Lasting Appeal
If it only had career mode, it wouldn't have much. But with multiple gameplay types and fantastic online and offline multiplayer options, you can expect to spend plenty of time with it.
8.0
Impressive OVERALL

I guess they already predicted what will happen next month...



And Chavez gets a shot at Pacquiao instead of Barrera...

I really really hope that in fight night 3 ur not able to be a featherweight and still be able to knockout heavyweights haha, it was kool for a while being able to do that but then I realized I wanted more realism. its cool how they have facial expresions now instead of looking like robots everytime they moved and stuff.

Games basicly the same of Round 2, but I'm hoping the gameplay is a little better. $40 bucks for the PS2 version, I'ma get it on monday. Round 2 my online record was 30 something with 7 defeats.

[LostGuy]

gameplay is a joke on this game as it was before unfortunately dudes.

Damn everyone looks super tense when they throw their punches. I'm hoping that's just how the haymakers look, and not just the regular punches.

[LostGuy]

look like their on crack or something hahahaha. but pernell aint on the game. too bad he was one of my favs.

the game play for x-box looks diff than ps2, the ps2 version seems fast enough to me
