they sold 3.5 million copies of 2009!?
at 55 bucks a piece thats some serious dough. i wonder how much the fighters got paid to be in it
they get the luxury of being employed by the UFC.
remember when Fitch wanted compensation?…see ya.
Tito interviewing Babalu: "I want to tell me what you see, let's go ahead and see by the fight, what you saw, in the ring."
Tito interviewing Fedor: "Let me tell you how you feeling right now?"
looks amazing
looks so much better than ea sports mma can`t wait
"With what he's (Brock) accomplished the in the short amount of time, he could go down as the greatest Heavyweight ever" - DW
Really?? That’s some real bullshit right there. So, he’s sayin Brock could go down as the greatest HW ever for what he’s accomplished?? A 3-1 UFC record fighting 3 guys. That’s a slap in the face of Randy. In Dana’s heart of hearts he knows Fedor is the greatest HW ever, but he’ll never admit it.

He says he COULD go down as the greatest HW
I agree with him, Brock started his career in the UFC younger in his life than Randy did, maybe Brock will be around until he is 40+ then it wouldn’t seem so impossible or a slap in the face.

Ya no shit
Two Words needs to pull the cock out of his ear and listen to what dana actually said.
i lol'd.
"Champions are not made in the gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them - a desire, a dream, a vision." -Muhammad Ali
LOL
For Dana and the UFC to do all the work they have growing this sport in north america, from the legalizing, TV deals, promoting, legal aspects and everything else no sh^t he is pissed at EA. MMA is not a sport, but is now because of the success of Undisputed? As a fan of MMA Dana has every right and should be pissed at EA. As a longtime fan of MMA myself I will find it hard buying a MMA game from a company that has stated MMA wasn’t a sport and wouldn’t make a MMA game. A game though is a game and if EA makes a better more fun game I’ll get it but Undisputed with all the fighters and improvements will be hard to beat.
`Common sense is not so common - Voltaire
Agreed.
I know it’s all business but when you disrespect a sport so bad and then try to cash in with it, it’s kind of hard to support EA.
But a true champion, face to face with his darkest hour, will do whatever it takes to rise above. A man fights, and fights, and then fights some more. Because surrender is death, and death is for pussies. - Kenny Powers
To be fair to EA they signed up Randy well before Undisputed came out so they obviously had some plans to release an MMA game
It’s not the current developers fault that the executives were being dicks anyway and EA have produced a lot of great games, certainly a lot more than THQ. I’m willing to give both games a fair chance and see which one I enjoy playing the most.
"Not a lot of professional sports down here (in Australia)"
"We just had our best season (of TUF) last season and it was season 10"
"Nogueira is probabaly the best HW of all time"
Dana White, proving that he's clueless about Australian sports, has never heard of Fedor and is still trying to hype up TUF 10.
same here David.
its not like they will release anytime soon anyway. EA MMA is due 1/1/11. They will be competing with UFC 2011 more than 2010.
My breakout fighter for this coming year: Terry Etim
Upset of the Year: John Hathaway over Diego Sanchez
really?
Where do you think he will stand on that greatest of all time HW list when Carwin or Velasquez decide they won’t let him blanket and dry hump them for the whole fight? Frank Mir rocked him with a knee, how do you think he’ll handle very sold strikers that can wrestle too? It’s way too soon to say he “could be” anything other than another boring wrestler with a WWE mouth. Dana is swinging on his nuts because of the money he makes, nothing more………oh and mma guru……you’re so insightful I see where you get the name.
So what
Fedor almost got knocked out by freaking Fujita, that probably means Fedor is bad or wait in both cases Fedor and Brock triumphed and a big knee has a lot of force behind it. You are basing everything off of what ifs and almost happend arguments… which are garbage arguments.

LOL how ignorant tj
opinions are opions but sorry to say getting rocked by a knee, and winning the fight shows he must have a solid chin, how many HW fighters do you see throwing knees? The answer is easy not many and probally won’t face too many from the other top guys down the road. Fact is he made Mir look like a second tier fighter who is probally the second best experienced fighter in MMA today behind Fedor.
`Common sense is not so common - Voltaire
Mir is the second best experienced fighter in mma and I’m ignorant? What about Big Nog? I think you are leaving out a few fighters that might have more experience than Mir but you probably haven’t heard anything about them since you followed Brock over from the WWE. You also left out Rick Flair, he probably has the first best experience even over fedor. I’ll give you that he did make Mir look bad, so did Brandon Vera. I’m talking about the one trick pony fighting someone who can deal with his wrestling. That’s all he has.
The same could be said about Barnett, GSP, Hughes......
Point being he is one of the best if not the best at grappling and controlling his opponent in MMA. Your WWE comment is proof your MMA intelligence is low as you have to come up with the grade five WWE = Brock card because you have no idea on Brocks real background. There was a poster intovert that used that one all the time as he had little MMA knowlege and I’m wondering about you to tj.

Dana said: “With what he’s accomplished in the short amount of time, he could go down as the greatest HW ever” . That means, he could go down NOW as the greatest with what he’s already accomplished. That’s the quote. AND what has he accomplished?? He beat Randy and Mir. He’s not the first to beat them. Plus, he outweighed both by about 50 lbs. And dont say he earned a HW title!
Tito interviewing Babalu: "I want to tell me what you see, let's go ahead and see by the fight, what you saw, in the ring."
Tito interviewing Fedor: "Let me tell you how you feeling right now?"
Excuses man
Yes he outweighed them but the way you stated that you would think Brock cheated or something. It was those guys choice to be fighting at heavyweight and at their weight and Brock smashed them and as far as him not being the first to beat either is also garbage because then if someone beats anyone besides Machida you could say well he wasn’t the first guy to beat so and so. Yes he earned his title, how didn’t he? Hard work and beating guys got him the title, how is that not earning it. AND AGAIN yes he has accomplished a lot in a short amount of time, he got the title very quickly and he beat the guys he had to, to do it. You are a clear case of a hater and yes what Dana said with what he has accomplished already is an indicator of how good he is and he could go down as the greatest of all time in the future is how I took it. You took it differently which is fine it is open to interpretation but no where in there did he directly state HE COULD GO DOWN TODAY A S THE GREATEST, so it is all speculation..

Benefit of the doubt
I’ll concede with Dana’s statement. Maybe i misinterpreted it. If Brock can stay on top for a while and continue beating the competition, i’ll agree. I’m not a hater, I just think Dana’s jamming Brock down everyone’s throats so ppl will forget about Fedor. Brock is Dana’s key to either getting Fedor or ppl forgetting fedor.
The actual belt doesnt mean anything to me. And I don’t think he earned that belt. Hard work and beating guys? Like who? Heath Herring was his only win!! I’m not sayin Brock sucks, not at all. Im just sayin’ for what he’s done, he’s over-hyped. When he came into the UFC and got subbed by Mir, nobody would ever think to rank him anywhere near the top 10. now, he’s competing for the #1 spot with Fedor after beating a 45 yr old Couture who had a 15 month layoff and Frank Mir (does herring really count?).
Tito interviewing Babalu: "I want to tell me what you see, let's go ahead and see by the fight, what you saw, in the ring."
Tito interviewing Fedor: "Let me tell you how you feeling right now?"
But who did Fedor really beat for the belt in Pride?
Only top heavy weights would be NOG and CC both who went three round decision with him. The HW division has never been as strong and deep until now and if Brock keeps winning he could go down as argueably the best ever, key word is IF though no matter even without Brock the UFC HW division is looking sweet were the champion deserves the Merit that comes with the belt. What fighter has fought close to the same calibure of fighters in their first five fights? The answer is none and Dana is biased any MMA fan should know this but at the same time he’s doing his job and hypeing the champions in every division as he should and Brocks early success is amazing for a man that only has five fights under his belt. With Cain, Carwin, Mir and JDS all in the hunt the next two fights should more than prove he’s for real and if he loses he will lose his ranking and merit until he can get it back like anyone else.
`Common sense is not so common - Voltaire
On the UFC magazine it says, Anderson Silva is the “greatest fighter of all time.” Now Dana is saying that Brock is the best HW of all time.
UFC is disgusting and all of the UFC dickridahz should consider suicide. Pride was better, Affliction’s cards were better, and now Strikeforce cards are better.
I never noticed, but Fedor fought for all three. Coincidence? Or does Fedor just sign to the orgs that have better cards?
Fedor doesn’t need the UFC to prove himself. The UFC needs Fedor to prove their weak HW division that Tim Sylvia dominated for so long. Pathetic.
SF cards are better than the UFC cards?
Ok whatever you say. Those organizations aren’t around any more, don’t forget to mention that.
I agree with TW. Saying Brock COULD be the best ever someday sounds stupid.
JasonFahQ is a troll.
thats what i was goign to say Jay
Fedor fought for all three, and all three went under.
My breakout fighter for this coming year: Terry Etim
Upset of the Year: John Hathaway over Diego Sanchez
LOL
The UFC has 5 of the top six heavy weights and 7 of the top ten heavy weights the most competative HW division ever. What SF shows are you talking about ITZmurda? LOL it’s clear either you are just being a hater or you have no idea what your talking about.
`Common sense is not so common - Voltaire
He says could go down....
If the man stays on top for the next 7-8 years against the calibure of fighters now days he could by many perspectives. But like every sport the opinions will very as many believe Jim Brown is the best RB ever but so many also think Walter Payton could. Dana is getting ahead of himself for sure but he’s doing his job and promoting the UFC we all know that his opions or biased so get over it you big cry baby’s. Brock is on the cover as the game is bigger, badder and stronger like the game, as stated by THQ.
`Common sense is not so common - Voltaire
I hate Brock Lesnar
but if he beats Mir again, Carwin, Cain, JDS, Nog, Alistair (if he comes to UFC), Pat Barry (when he evolves), and whoever else in his career without losing (which is not that outlandish of a statement), i would say he would be the Best UFC HW ever, and possibly the best HW ever in MMA.

Andy is the greatest fighter of all time in my opinion
He’s certainly the best fighter in UFC history and I wouldn’t be surprised if he never loses a fight in his career again. He’s right up there with Fedor as the greatest of all time and the longer Fedor remains outside of the top MMA promotion the closer guys like Andy, GSP and BJ come to taking away his status as the greatest of all time.
No idea how you think that SF and Affliction are better promotions, SF is slowly building up a formidable roster but still can’t put on quality shows every month and their rosters are thin compared to the UFC whilst Affliction only lasted 2 shows. Pride was a great organisation and it did some things a lot better than the UFC but it had its own problems, the company was run by Yakuza gangsters and put on some stupid freakshows to please the Japanese fans. I’m baffled that an MMA fan can hate the UFC and it’s fanbase as much as you, comments like that are why the Internet communities get so much stick because it makes it sound like we only go online to bitch and aren’t actually fans.

David no doubting andys gr8ness but no way in hell he can be infront of fedor for best ever!
Not saying he is not the man rite now but he has loses which fedor duznt! I know those loses were a long time ago but fedor still hasn’t been proven wrong ad the best fighter of all time!

Well he was lucky to get the Arona decision and did lose by fluke cut but I get your point
However going undefeated doesn’t necessarily make you the greatest of all time, look at boxing more people credit Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali as the greatest of all time than the undefeated Rocky Marciano and even recently nobody could seriously argue that Joe Calzaghe was a greater boxer than Roy Jones Jr.
I agree that Fedor should be viewed as the greatest of all time at this point because he dominated the HW division in Pride despite being outsized in the majority of his fights but at this point he isn’t facing as top competition as Andy, GSP or BJ and if any of them go on to move up in weight and truly dominate another weight class whilst Fedor continues to win fights against lesser HWs then I’d have to give those 3 more credit as being all time greats because they are the ones testing themselves and beating the best. Being undefeated can’t be your only criteria for judging the greatest of all time, especially when they have been beaten once (the Arona “win” and cut defeat evens itself out in my opinion).

To be the greatest you have to beat those considered the best as long as you compete
There is little doubt Fedor is the greatest ever HW in MMA though right now and still considered by many as the best today. There is no way of proving who the best is unless they fight eachother, so it’ disputed and all opinion. The UFC champion will have to prove himself against 6 other top ten heavy weights and the best competition in the world hands down. Is Fedor adding to his legacy by fighting good fighters instead of the best? I don’t think so and thats my opinion but to me the best in the world fights the best in the world and Fedor is not anymore. Greatest HW ever is Fedor, right now though is debated and mostly opinion based. Take Fedor out of the picture there would be little arguement the top five HW fighters in the world would be UFC fighters right now.

itzmurda = 13 comments. he's a noob idiot.

itzmurda is an idiot
u think ur a cool cuz u put down the UFC machine?? u think ur a hero cuz u can throw the hammer at big brother? u think ur a non-conformist cuz u can name other organizations? The UFC makes the most money because they produce the best show. Everythin’ is done right. DW and Co. know how to run it. And they do put on the best fights most of the time. I’ve seen some awesome fights on SF, but overall the UFC puts on more fights with better fighters, which lead to more better fights. Pride had some good fights, but IMO, the UFC still put on better fights. Im just not a big Pride fan. How can you even compare Affliction to The UFC?? U just proved ur a moron. I laughed my head off watchin’ Affliction. It’s a joke.

video games are as gay as canada
they’re nothing but cartoons attached to a controller…and if you’re an adult and you’re still watching cartoons then you are gay…
unless its south park…cause everyone knows south park kicks ass…
just sayin
my dream fight would have to be Brock Lesnar vs Jake Shields...and before the fight theres a video of jake slapping brock's wife...then id like to see shields try to gay porn a win over brock using his butt sex merry-go-round tactics...the massacre that would take place would be the greatest thing ever televised...every limb jake has would look like corey hill's leg...god i hate jake shields
whatever doucher, Plenty of straight adults watch cartoons!
Sounds like someone is not comfortable with their own sexuality!
I guess Matt Ryan and over half the other Falcons players you like are gay too?
Yeah It’s time to come out of the closet Hellatic and admit your G&P.

Speaking of Canada they might break the record for most gold medals won
In todays hockey game!! Not to bad for a low populated country I must say.
`Common sense is not so common - Voltaire
its an embarrassment that the US leads in total medals
in the winter olympics in canada….canadians grow up and are conditioned in winter weather….its in their blood…they should get gold medals in EVERY event….there is no way a county like the united states with places like death valley and arizona that get like 120 degrees should ever go into a winter country and rape them in total medals…that is humiliating….
and every canadian starts skating and playing hockey when they’re like 2 years old….and have been for generations…its the only sport that the country is worth a shit in…and the US walked into canada and beat them…and made the country look like total assholes…
thats the equivelant of a canadian football team going to new orleans and beating the new orlean saints…it would NEVER happen….its like a canadian basketball team going to cleveland and beating lebron james and the cavaliers it would NEVER happen….yet america walked into canada and beat the canadian hockey team…..that shit would never happen with canadian athletes coming to america and beating americans in their best sport…
its because we are superior……and if canada beats the US today..then so what….thats what should have happened the first time….it would be like the saints beating the canadian football team….it would be nothing to celebrate…it would just be expected
my dream fight would have to be Brock Lesnar vs Jake Shields...and before the fight theres a video of jake slapping brock's wife...then id like to see shields try to gay porn a win over brock using his butt sex merry-go-round tactics...the massacre that would take place would be the greatest thing ever televised...every limb jake has would look like corey hill's leg...god i hate jake shields
A world resord no matter what your point of view is LOL
US has a bigger population in three or four of it’s winter cities than Canada has in total for Canada to get the record in gold medals is amazing. Justy as many americans play hockey as canadians now per capita Canadians destroy but number wise their are jsut as many americans playing hockey as canadians. Football for every 5000 americans that play one canadian plays it lot different and truelly a american sport only as nobody from any other country besides Canada even has a league. Hockey and soccer or the only two sports played globally by more than two countries with high calibure leagues around the world, in Canada and US we both suck at soccer though.
`Common sense is not so common - Voltaire
14 gold medals for Canada(World record), not bad for the 36th biggest country eh!!

I will be supporting the UFC and Undisputed series!
And even if the other game is good, i will avoid it. The cast sucks anyway…
ufc forever
i liked last years game but their were flaws 4 1 the presentation was horrible 4 2 careermode got borring real quick the fights had no meening their was no prefight hype 4 3 it would have been nice 2 have prefight & postfight pressconfrences it was pretty boring hopefully 2010 will better
by titonash23 on Feb 28, 2010 4:09 PM EST via mobile reply actions
The striking looked much better by the clips I have seen
Last years game showed enough in the gameplay and controls though with improvements this game can be great. Little tweaks here and there and a tournament mode will be very interesting to see how well it comes out.

Guys take it easy on Hella. He's just playing. He's funny as fuck.
