Aren’t games all about the aspect of the play? I could care less if it’s UFC or not, as long as the game is fun & the control aspects are good/unique.

EA didn’t have many choices for big name promotions….shouldn’t feel too honored.

Anyone who pisses on this game because they’re are no UFC fighters in it (sans Randy)….is a douchebag, loser.

Hopefully the movement of the fighters is more fluid than the ufc game. Undisputed is pretty stiff especially during the standup it feels like rockem sockem robots. The graphics will obviously be better so hopefully the framerate is also

Haha dunno how my name came up as rocke damn phone!

Strikeforce doesn’t have that many fighters must be a short game.

EA wasn’t interested in making an MMA game until THQ was making money off it. That is what bothers me about EA. The game itself looks better so far than the UFC game. If EA had of teamed up with UFC the game would have been better.

Dana white probably told EA sports that he would only do the game if it were UFC only, which is understandable. The ufc is the premier organization, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t talent outside of it. EA was obviously more interested in doing a world wide game as opposed to just one organization. They could learn a lot and do a lot better with this game than THQ did with undisputed. But I think that the lack of the ufc fighters will turn ppl off towards the game as sad as it is.

I like all the pressure SF is putting on the UFC right now, from signing better fighters, to holding better cards to being in probably the better game. This is going to make UFC make some good counter moves. We, as fans are going to come out of this the winners.

Ok well my post didn’t pop up yet I said hopefully the movement in the game is more fluid than the ufc one.

Ahhh ok there it is sorry! Hahaha

Fuck EA they saw that UFC made alot of money on their video game and now they want to make a MMA game too.

Fuck them I hope this game sucks!!!

I’m not buying this game! Not because “it’s not UFC” but because its EA. They refused to make UFC Undisputed because they said MMA isn’t a sport, THQ belived in the idea and were extremely successful, the Hippocrates at EA are just trying to piggyback onto THQ’s and Undisputed’s success.

As a hardcore gamer IM PUMPED for this game but i can tell you EA sports is 50-50 .. EA is A publisher for the most part and thier games are developed by other studios.

Somtimes they make good games somtimes they dont. What they will do for sure is MILK the Franchise Like they do with every thing they own… The MMA GAme will become an Anual Release . They will number it 09 or 10 .

EA does have some good games .. Skate , burnout , FighNight , FIFA , Thats about it. They have more BAD games then Good. Remember Def jam fighting game ,

I hope EA’s main Competitor …. 2K Will make an MMA game. ( but what fighters are gonna be left)

What we need to remember is that EA Sports makes the best sports games in the world and that THQ is famous for making WWE wrestling games. The WWE influence on the UFC game is very apparent.

I have little doubt that the EA Sports game will be vastly superior.

Aaah mann,this would be much better with ufc guys aswell…ufc wasnt as good as i hoped,no head movement and only a select few can do a head kick which is weird…still might get it but should team with ufc to make a better game!

One of the biggest mistakes the Undisputed game made was not allowing the gamer to pick their favorite fighter and become a champion with that fighter. You had to create your own fighter, and go from there. Also, the fighter you created never aged, he just retired once the game felt the fighter had built up his stats high enough. EA won’t be making these mistakes, along with several others Undisputed made. Still, they have to be kicking themselves that they passed up a chance to work with the UFC. They’ve proven with Madden and NFL Street that they don’t mind making two different games off of one sport (also NBA Street and NBA Live). They missed a big opportunity here, and now will be going up against a Juggernaut with UFC’s Undisputed. Their game will probably get rated higher by the magazines, but they won’t sell as many copies.

This is a very nerdy comment, but EA pulled this same shit about 10 years ago with a wrestling game. THQ was making successful WCW games for nintendo 64 so EA gobbled up the playstation rights and put out perhaps the biggest piece of shit game of all time. I guarantee you guys that this game will blow simply because the developers are just trying to squeeze a quick buck out of what is considered a fad. And if you all think EA puts out a good product just read some of the forums for their new madden game. Holy shit if you thought mma fans were crybabies.

Im sure Coker knows hes only the premier leauge cuz they have beef with UFC. Im sure he knows that hed be second best if EA and UFC didnt have their beef going on. Still, i cant wait for this game!!!

tonights the night mr fedor gets KTFO!! i can hear the excuses now, first time in the cage, first time on National tv, if its a tko it will be early stoppage sadly rodgers is the best guy fedor has fought in a long long time

I think using strikeforce is a crazy move by EA. They’d have been aswell just making up their own tournament, and their own fighters. Most people know of the UFC and the UFC fighters but, at least in the UK, strikeforce is virtually unheard of.

If someone asked what MMA is, you’d say, like UFC fighting.

I suspect next year we’ll maybe see undisputed 2010 to compete with EA.

I usually prefer EA games, but don’t really care about names etc, like in fifa I couldn’t care less.

But in undisputed, I find that it really does make a difference. There’s quite a few characters I haven’t heard of, and I’ve just never used them. Not intentionally, but it obviously makes a difference
