    You mean Haymakers? there are no Haymakers they do have some Sig shots Uppercuts left or right, good liver shot etc... however yuo have to charge up your adreniline to get those shots off and if you miss too bad if its blocked too bad.
    you cant just throw bomb after bomb and win you actually have to fight. Sure you can manipulate the game the way that Hopkinsfan did but that is a boring way to play I mean why take the game away from itself like that?
    anyhow they are not closed down either, 2 K Sports is working on a patch for the game cus there are some online glitches.

    I bought this on release.

    It definitely has its shortcomings, but it is actually a better game than FN 3 and more sim if you actually learn how to play. The game plays much better against a human and online than any other boxing game before. I actually have 12 round decisions.

    I won this game from the Through the Ropes radio show and the only reason I didn't sell it on ebay is because it has Joan Guzman in it. Fight Night should be much better and hopefully a huge improvement since the last one.

    it's tough to tell from the you tube video but how are the graphics as far as punch contact is concerned I thought I saw some iffy moments

    the control looks sloppy maybe that's just because you aren't good at the game lol I'm playing

    I'll probably try it out and see it's always tough to take someone else's word for it

    Do the fighters all have their own unique styles.. or does every fighter in the game fight the same?

    Does it have an option where your fighter has to take King to court so he can get the money that is due to him?

    That wasnt my video I didnt make that, The grapics are fine, they do need some minor tweaking but over all the game is really a 7.5 or 8 to be honest with you.
    The online play is tight but has made glitches you cant pause well you can but the other guy gets to still whip the **** out of you while you paused it.
    alot of times you get out right robbed, if you clearly dominate sometimse the game gives it to the other guy. just happend to me about 3 mins ago.
    and sometimes you cant do damage and the acheivements sometimes do not un lock, 2 ksports says they are working on a patch for the game but I doubt it.
    in terms of play 2 player mode is tight, Career mode is far better than FN

    Good question, and to answer it no they dont all have their own styles which I am sure in the future 2k will want to do something about that, but its their first attempt and to be honest they did pretty good.
    over all like I said you just have to take the time to learn how to play the game.

    I'm actually willing to give this thing a 4th chance. I've been on the brink of snapping the disc in half about 5 times! I respect your point of view on this game and I can see some hidden potential but I've got this **** on Amateur and I can't make it out of the 2nd round! Got any tips for me???
