Click the Xbox 360 button and then go to the Marketplace tab. There should be a 'Redeem Code' option there.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Demo Impressions

Can we still pre-order and get this code?

The Gamestop in my area (NC) said they had several, so it's worth a shot.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Demo Impressions

played 5 fights and just as I thought I hate the sticks initially...hopefully I'll feel better after a weekend of playing.

What I can tell you is this though. While we were out there I spoke with an EA rep from Florida (Jason Thompson) who had tested the game 1 month before the Community Event.
And he said the difference between the two builds was night and day. He couldn't believe how much the game had improved over the course of 5 weeks.

The build we played was months away from finished. Who knows where this demo falls into? And we don't know how much more fine tuning the final product will have.
While I still have hope that's the case (I'm crossing my fingers it is) EA would have to be bat**** stupid to release a very early build of this game as a demo. The demo is supposed to show off the game so people buy it. I would be shocked if this wasn't at least the build you played. The game is coming out next month, whatever the game is at this point after 18 months is pretty much what's gonna be released.

I guess I'm just not seeing in this game what you are. Maybe Ali is easier to use in dancing around (again I pray this is the case) but the camera angle is not helping. You can't find your bearings half the time when you try to stick and move and the angle is dizzying at times almost like that nausea you feel when you play some FPS. It seems like a chore and you're fighting the controls when you want to dance. The inside game is much more natural.

Please tell me there that you played with different camara angles than the one they provided in the demo and that you can adjust the speed of the game.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 Demo Impressions

I've fought twice so far after acquiring the demo. In each fight I (Pac Man) through just shy of 400 punches in a total of 3 rounds. I am not used to the sensitivity of the new stick system. I really enjoyed Fight Night Round 3 using its analog scheme. It just seems to easy to land/throw punches using a new system. But that is something I will have to adjust my game too so we'll see how that goes.

I do really enjoy the game so far beside the punch count. The fighting system makes for a lot of fun and some really good combos. I think the presentation looks great compared to Round 3. The announcing seemed fresh...except for a few lines here or there. Getting up after being knocked down is going to be a challenge but at the same time it provides another element of gameplay to the game. I'm definitely going to buy this so I can continue to box my friends from back home...I just hope they can do something to decrease the amount of punches...Pac Man should not be able to throw 130 in a single round.

(Edit) Also the glaring issue of collision detection needs to be fixed. I know I know, it's a demo. I'll stop complaining now.
