Worse ufc game I've played to date. It's actually worse than the last iteration by a long shot. Fighter reactions and strikes are terribly slower than your button presses and makes the game play frustrating at best. The damage ratio doesn't make sense anymore either. You can absolutely punish your opponents body parts with no real result except your fighter takes damage and stamina loss worse than the other fighter. The grappling is slightly easier and a tad more basic than previous years putting a higher emphasis on grapplers. Graphics aren't much of an improvement that would warrant buying this over ufc 2. Im glad I got it from the pre-owned bin instead of the paying normal price. Even at $16.00 I'm still unhappy with the purchase though. Save your money.
