The long awaited first ever UFC video game was released May 19, 2009. It did take a while though, I remember hearing rumors about the game being out much sooner than this but nonetheless it is finally out. I believe I purchased my copy no more than a couple days after its release.
I was excited to see how they would make this game because there are so many techniques used by fighters. I wanted to see how they would incorporate all of these techniques into the game. I have to say, they did a great job. I think the game is very realistic and portrays all facets of the sport. From striking abilities to takedowns, I think they could have made this part of the game any better. I think it is a great game to play with friends and online. I did find some difficulties in playing the game as well. When I play on a high level, I find it extremely difficult to takedowns and submissions.
Whenever I get taken down is basically the end of the fight because I either get submitted or knocked out completely. I also do not like how you have to retire after seven years in career mode. Once I build my fighter up to be good, I have to retire him pretty soon after that because I will have reached seven years. I guess I understand why they made it like that though so a person could not build their fighter up real high then dominate everyone online. That is the only reason I can think of why they would do that. Other than that, I think the game is great. I hope they continue to come out with a new edition every year like madden. I know I will buy it again if they do.
