Ultimate Fighting Championship (Xbox 360, PS3)

I think they have ran out of DVDs mate

I bet there are other shops that are doing that offer though
 
There shouldn't be any customs charges within the EU.
 
I can live with no CPU vs. CPU.

I can live with the fact that there's no specator mode for online fights.

I can live with the fact that the CAF seems horribly limited.

But why, oh WHY, did they screw up so badly with title matches? If you haven't heard, whenever you choose an exhibition match to be 5 rounds, it's automatically a title fight. No matter what fighters you pick. Automatically! And when the match is over, no new champion is decided. The championship doesn't change hands. GSP will forever be champion, even though you defeat him 400 times in a row with BJ (for example). Not so brilliant.

Because THQ and Yukes are idiots. They did the same thing with the WWE games for years refusing the let us defend titles in exhibition. Every year the fans would ask for it and every year they'd use some bullshit excuse that it would screw up the career modes. But funnily enough they eventually added it, no doubt because they had ran out of things to add to justify a new game.

Arr me mateys! It be out for those with what we call in the business 'special' 360's. :PIRATE:
 
I'm not surprised to hear it's laggy. THQ's WWE games have always suffered from lag so i expected it here as well
 
I'm feeling a bit hungover so ill post my views tomorrow ;)

I did just have a awesome fight though

It was Wanderlei Silva vs Tito Ortiz and he was constantly taking me down and i was way way behind on points coming into to the end of the 3rd round because i couldn't do much against him. But with about a minute to go he went for another takedown and i timed a perfect knee right to his chin which nearly took his head off and won me the fight by KO :)

Quality
 
I'd like to know if the game has been made so you can win by submission or is it still 90% focused towards striking and 10% ground work. I was hoping to make my guy a submission expert and kill guys as they come running at me but I'm not expecting to be able to do that after the demo and previews.
 
subs are still dangerous i have submitted a few, but the trick is to lock em up when the opponent has low stamina this will help you achieve subs

question! when you have mounted an opponent, but want to sit up so you can smash some punches in, but the opponent is grabbing your head, what movement on the right stick do you use to force out of that and to sit upright

i keep putting myself to side control from the mount, which is a less effective position, because i am trying to force my way out of being held

also how can you lock your legs when you have them in a rear naked choke position, so they can't roll out of it?

btw, the lag is shit online - it can be anything from crap to unbearable
