EA bought UFC franchise from THQ

if you gave JDS 3 months video game programming training...oppps sorry wrong thread ;-)

But it was obvious waht the UFC were doing when they resigned Trigg, Coleman Baroni ect...life long image rights signings, to stop EA getting their image rights

Hopefully these guys get a decent cut

 

They still have no rights for Randy or Fedor though... :verysad

Without them two it'll always be a let down. I hope they continue with Pride mode. I barely played anything else against friends... Huge 155lbers against mighty mouse... Good times!

Lynchburg

 

Good move the whole thing had stalled with THQ. EA had the right idea with their game but it looked poor to me. Agree with keeping the Pride mode and Bas they also need to short the online servers out. Quick match takes about an hour to get anyone. Think I read a while back they had tried this before.

 

I havent played Undisputed 3 yet how is it guys ?

 

I only played it online that was good. The pride mode was a very good addition not much else changed though. Subs are better but that was basically stole from EA's game. Too much waiting time and menus though trying to get a game though.

 

Hope they can merge the best of both games into a good enjoyable game

 

Hope EA goes under.
**** them.

 

THQ is the one that is probably going under, which is probably the main reason they quit making UFC games.

 

Sad to say, but THQ is probably going down.

There last chance is Darksiders 2. If that game does not sell, the company is done. I am guessing that THQ got a cash infusion by selling the UFC franchise to EA to help them stay afloat through the summer.

I guess their wrastling games aren't selling like they used to.

 

I haven't head anything about how well those games did, but I know that their Wii drawing tablet and lackluster Homefront sales hurt the company bad.
