foght night round 3

tecmo04

My roommate just bought a 360 and fight night round 3. All i gots to say is dam. Most amazing graphics, slow motion knockdowns, blood everywhere! great game worth getting. Live play is also amazingly fun...:)

I agree, its a really cool game. The graphics are great. Its a must check out if you have a 360.

I just bought this tonight and I absolutely love it. I downloaded the demo this weekend and was playing it for a solid 3 or 4 hours. Some really amazing graphics -- the announcers, however...are completely annoying already. I am glad you can turn that part off.

I liked the ring girls way too much.

I'm surprised you like the Live aspect of the game. Have you tried to play friends yet? I tried it a couple times, and its a really drawn out process that isn't intuitive.

I've played single player 99% of the time I've owned the game and I'm still not tired of it. Got pretty far through career mode once, then restarted so I could get better ratings and do better in training.

Once you get the parry and haymaker down, it get's REALLY fun. Especially when you're a lot better than the opponent.

Yep. Thats the key to winning.

I'm suprised you found a great game inside this prduct advertisement. Craving a wooper for some reason.

but its, a good game though.

It isn't any more in your face commercial than the actual events you watch on TV. I'm surpised it took so long for them to be so blunt about it. I thought it was pretty funny having the Burger King 'Mascot' come out for one of the fights I did last night.

Shizelbs

I thought that was funny too.

Ads are showing up in games everwhere. Of my 360 games they are present in GRAW, Madden, Fight Night, and then Fight Night.

I think they are pretty harmless for the most part. If they keep the cost of my game down, I'll fine with it.

Having "The King" as a trainer is crap... it just doesn't go into the game at all. I can understand having Under Armour and Dodge and ESPN, but The King? Sheesh.

I've noticed my career is a lot harder earlier this time around. I guess since I jacked up my power and speed, the fighters are taylored to be as good. Makes me mad! GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Hulk mad!

r.camacho1

But that's the thing, it doesn't keep the price down.

r.camacho1

And another thing, whats up with all the hip hop music. I just find it weird that the hispanic fighters coming out to it. It throws off from the experience. I think the game is going in the right direction, but I hope they fix a few of those issues. That and more boxers.

Demiurge

Write the developers and let them know you'd like them to put the Macarena in.

Development costs are going through the roof and the price of games isn't going up a whole lot. Something's got to give if you want the game makers to stay in business.

They should probably give a little more thought into what companies can advertise in games. GRAW did a good job of integrating the ads while FN3 did an overly outlandish way of integrating the ads.

I'm still ok with the ads in Fightnight 3 except for the King as trainer. That just threw me off. I really liked the points he gave but I didn't like him going into the ring. I'm still having a really hard time with parry. I end up moving a lot to dodge and throwing well placed counters to beat my opponents. It's interesting how everyone develops their styles. There are also strange plateaus in the game I've come across. Once one of my stats crossed 80% my opponents slowed down significantly. There was a time when people could get in 3-4 punches in on me, but not anymore. I can easily move out of the way and then move back in with wicked counters.
