Gotta get this game!!!!!! Anyone else a fan of this series---looking forward to this game?

Comes out June 30th and has the deepest stable of boxers ever!!!!!

Pavlik, Paz, Lennox Lewis, Iron Mike Tyson, George Foreman, and tons more.

Watching the trailers, this game looks 100x better than the previous installment. Though the last game was fun, and has replay value---at some points it seemed a little redundant, and a lot of the animations seemed canned.

I will post three of the vids on here, and the first one---the "physics" explanation really showcases how this game will be compared to the last one.

Physics:



And here's a trailer:



Paquiao vs. Hatton:

I'll be definitely getting it. Will be cool to see Pavlik in the ring.

I've had the 1st two for the PS2, but didn't get the next-gen Round 3. I'll be getting it for the PS3 when it drops. Looks pretty bad ass.

Didn't you watch the physics video I posted. This game is gonna be A LOT different from round 3. FNR3 was a fun game, but this one is going to be a lot more dynamic and will rely on what kind of contact you make rather than standing toe-to-toe and trading punches while attempting to parry and counter.

I didn't think it came out until the 25th?

So how do you like it so far. I know the Demo has me hooked. Its only 3 rounds, but knocking the hell out of Hatton just isn't getting old.

I am pumped for when it comes out---will prolly light up a jibber and get into the zone for some KO's.

I thought so too, but I saw on Gamespot it said the 23rd, so I called the local place and they were picking it up from the airport and bringing it back for sale, got fresh out of the box.

The game is flat out awesome, they have an online world title belt, which is kind of cool, Ill never win it, but cool none the less.

The career mode (legacy) is amazing, you can move up and down weight classes, each class has three different governing bodies, so you can unify the titles in each weight class.

You can use whichever boxers you want in your career, including created boxers. Which for me is awesome, Im more into real simulation, so I dont like using Ali and Foremen etc in my career. You can also download created guys online from people or share your guys.

If you have a webcam you can import your pic and your created guy will be generated from your pic, it works too, mine looks just like me, but about 12 years younger.

I dont really need to say much about the graphics and gameplay, you have seen how great those are.

So far the game is fantastic, I cant wait to dig into the career mode more and get my gameplay up to par to fight online.

Just tried calling the twenty four hour Wal-Mart near here and they claim that they won't have it til the 25th. Pretty Weak.

I may try stopping by the Gamestop in A-town tomorrow just to see if they have it in stock---if they don't I guess I will just have to wai another 24 hours.

Stopped up at Gamestop this morning and picked up a copy. Got home and the first thing I did was select Iron Mike and absolutely CRUSHED Ronald Wright. First round KO.

This game is gonna be sweet. Gotta take care of some business while its light outside---but I figure I will be getting into the meat of the game later tonight and through the weekend.

I love the fluidity of the combos you can throw in this game. And they did a great job capturing each fighters style. Great game so far.

What makes it even cooler:

With the create your own boxer feature, people online are importing tons of pics of other boxers and celebrities and then making the created characters available for download online.

So far online I have seen available for download: Both Klitchko's, Buster Douglas, Evander Holyfield, B Hop, Floyd Merriweather, Barack Obama, Rocky Balboa, Apollo Creed, Ivan Drago, CHUCK NORRIS, Tupac, 50 Cent, Billy Mays, Ghandi, and even LBJ.

This games stable of boxers will grow exponentially online. How kool will it be to put the smack down with Bron Bron!!!!!!!

Someone needs to upload a pic of Butter Bean for the game.

Yeah, and you can import i think up to 50 created guys into your season? Or use those guys online, its great. Im holding off on starting my real legacy until I get all the created guys I want.

Update:

Played for about 4 hours today. Created my boxer, light-heavyweight, 8-0 with 7KOs. The game is great fun, already one of my favorites I've ever played. I'm good at the sparring training but am having issues with the other training. Figure I'll practice some more. The game is great an if you're a fan of fighting/boxing games, it's a must own.

I been playing this game nearly everyday. I have created a boxer---call him Sons Zoo---and I wail on all my opponents.

Have yet to take anything online yet---but I hear its quite tough against online competition.

I doubt knocking people out will ever get old.
