I'm really impressed by the graphics, the animation is superb for a game this fast. this article was written by Michael Jackson :lol: Moving the punches onto the thumb stick and away from the buttons has certainly alienated me from this buying this game... oh yeah, and the one punch win, so prevalent online in the last version, guaranteed I gave up playing it online within 3 games.
Boxing's a nice idea, but ultimately as a videogame it's one of the dullest sports. I know you could make this argument for any sport game, but it really did feel like getting a racing game home only to find one track! Or shooter with one map!! I'd put money on this game having more used copies available within two weeks, than other game released this year. I might borrow this from a friend before he gets rid of it... if I've not got any washing up to do that evening! FNR3 had the punching on the thumbstick. ffcoppolla, yes it did, but you weren't forced to play the game this way as you are with the new one. Using thumbsticks for punches or blocks didn't suit me at all. I guess anyone who purchases the new one loves it, not me. I don't want a developer to decide how I play a game. dont walk into the punches to be knocked the fook out then...
new FN is awesome, loving every minute of it... you really have to change your play when against an inside or outside and their varying heights... So EA, Ubisoft, etc., contact you at your home asking how you'd like to play a game?
Of course not; most games you play are dictated by the developer. This game is far better than round 3. The violnence makes me smile. :) |
