I feel like this game deserves too much hate for simply not being a real upgrade from UFC 3, but what people forget is that there are a lot of improvements in the gameplay and has fun new features to play. One improvement being the striking. The striking in this game feels much more natural and fluid than the previous UFC games. Also, the submissions are pretty challenging and exhilarating to go through. Furthermore, there are a lot of new arenas and stadiums to play in. The most fun to play in, by far, is the Kumite Arena. It pays its homage to ''Bloodsport" starring Van Damme, and who is not a fan of Van Damme if you love classical martial arts? I certainly am a true MMA fan as well as a classic martial arts fan and this game satisfied me to the core.
