HundredProofSam Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 You'd have to ask on the IGN forums then. I have it on 360 though. I should have waited for the PSN demo to come out. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark_Knight Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Played the demo and I am disappointed with the controls The analog stick controls and holding L1 to punch to the body is just messed up. Atleast before when you had to make a half circle or semi circle movement to the stick you knew which punch was about to be thrown but now since you have to flick the stick at very particular angles its just luck. So if you flick the stick in a particular direction there is a possibility of two punches being thrown. I might get used to this after a lot of practice but right now I am disappointed. So played three matches - i) Lost the first round to Tyson since I didn't know the controls :| But started throwing a lot of jabs after it and comfortably won the second and third round. ii) First threw a low blow at Tyson, the head butted him and then again threw a low blow and got DQ'ed I really don't like Tyson :| iii) Won the first two rounds comfortably again. But got a bit over confident in the third and didn't keep my guard up.. So I was caught by a haymaker and was knocked down. :| Managed to get back up again and finish the round but the match ended up being a draw. You really can't relax even for a second here. You have to sparingly use the haymakers because you will be very vulnerable to a counter-attack if you don't land it and then can very easily get knocked down. The AI has been improved a lot. Barring the controls I really liked the demo. Will be pre-ordering it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyofx Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I doubt it. It doesn't have Move/Kinect support or let him count calories. Wait till UFC: Kinect comes out. I'll be all over that Played the demo and I am disappointed with the controls The analog stick controls and holding L1 to punch to the body is just messed up. Atleast before when you had to make a half circle or semi circle movement to the stick you knew which punch was about to be thrown but now since you have to flick the stick at very particular angles its just luck. So if you flick the stick in a particular direction there is a possibility of two punches being thrown. I might get used to this after a lot of practice but right now I am disappointed. Most impressions point to wonky controls and generally disappointing/samey gameplay. But then this could be like the EA MMA demo and the final game could turn out to be decent :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Knight Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 ^ I don't think there will be much of a difference in the controls. They have been touting it as "full spectrum of punches' or something similar. It will become like spray and pray :| But what the controls does is that it completely takes out the strategy element from the game since you never know which punch will be thrown next. Hopefully I will get used to it soon. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyofx Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 ^^ Does it *feel* the same, though. The punches still look they have little impact for instance.. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaka_messi Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 this game is soooo easy... havent lost a single fight...not even a round... knockdown...i love them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftrunner Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Played the demo on a friends Xbox (mine is still downloading, bleurgh!) and I dunno it doesnt feel as ... smooth (?) as the last game for some reason. Only played one game mind you. And you know how friendly games go on these kinda games (the trash talking alone is very distracting ) so its hard to tell.

Dark_Knight Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 There was definitely something off with the game. I guess I was just distracted with the controls to notice anything else :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vip3r Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 There was definitely something off with the game. I guess I was just distracted with the controls to notice anything else :| I can safely say that round 4 was better than this (after comparing demoes of both) but even then this demo is the only one I am playing apart from kz 3 course in other words this is pure win. btw is it me or does anyone else feels that paqiaou is a freight train compared to the relatively fragile cotto also tyson is a bit off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyofx Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Why do you say Round 4 is better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vip3r Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Why do you say Round 4 is better? Well for once The controls are better, This one is more of a slugfest. add to that the spoiler line of my previous post. But i can safely say that the story mode is worth it after reading the reviews online is still a ton of fun but its the fifa syndrome all over again in the middle weight division paquiaou is way too overpowered. I mean try the demo, target cotto's head for 1 or maX 2 rounds and he will break like a pack of cards with blood from every pore wayyy to fragile to be a boxer and its the opposite in the case of ali he will absorb Irom Mike Tyson's punches like anything and will score a knockout blow with almost each blow in the later stages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
