UFC Undisputed 2009 Thread

Calling all gamers!!!

I for one really don't consider my self a gamer. In fact, the last couple games I have played, up until yesterday, were Halo on the original XBOX last year and an old arcade version of the 80's game "Time Pilot" a few weeks ago. But this week, thanks to a return of some of the interest free loan I gave to Uncle Sam last year, I was able to purchase a PS3 as well as "UFC Undisputed 2009" (3.5 million other people can't be wrong).

It what little time I have during the day to play the game, I have completed the tutorial on how to control a fighter. Now I have to actually jump in and start playing. This brings me to the couple questions I have for those that are actually familiar with the game:

1. Is it better to use a player already set up in a game or to customize your player?

2. How do you set up online game play?

3. Is it possible to create (particularly in the PS3 online community) to set up an SB Nation league where members of the MMA (or any other) blogs here can play against each other? Or does something like this exist already?

Sorry if I sound completely ignorant with these questions, but being almost 35, I have been out of the video game console loop for a while.

Feel free to leave any comments below.

good post.

Ive not played for a good few months, but when i did i good ranked 49th in world ( well for a few days anyways)

Point 1 = I will always use a Real life Fighter when i fight, Except some times online as some custom Fighters are just stupidly good. ( i always used Bisping… there something very satisfying about knocking out Noobs who use Andy etc)

2. Goto goto Online Match ( i prefere to create my own game turn off custom fighters and intro’s so its just straight to the fighting)

3. Not to sure about how to set up league but i know there is ones out there, i think its just done via the website, some one will just sort out the fights, and then results are posted etc.

Every night i would pray to God for a new bike, then i realized God does not work that way, so i stole one and asked him to forgive me

I hated playing online.

too many douchebags would would just lay and pray till your guy gasses out and then they finish you in the 3rd round. Not to mention there was all them goddamn quitters who would jump out of a match if they started losing or were getting KO’d. But that was before the patch or whatever. I just dont play online again, or ever.

As for a CAF vs Real fighters, when you straight up create a dude and go to exhibition, he wont be as good as if you brought him up from Career. The highest straight CAF i got was like an 88 when I made a shitty looking version of Mousasi.

When you get better though, ratings dont mean a whole lot, as you can start winning with anyone, or if you play on super hard, Chris Lytle will start KO’ing GSP.

Like boxing the online is choppy

I have the Box and there is a online feature in the main Menu I think PS3 would be the same and for your first question, it depends on the user. If you played boxing and like making a character I think you will in this. I find doing the career mode is the best for learning the game and making a character. I believe 2010 is going to be out in the next couple months so I would just do a career mode and play the game with and without your character. Quick tip when defending a sub to power out of it wich works best with stronger fighters tap your bottons and if you have a more techniqally skilled fighter use your right analaog and spin it round and round as long as your guy isn’t tired or horrible JJ defence against someone good at JJ you should have little problems.
