If you don't like it, don't buy it because all the complaining is not gonna change anything.

I don't know Seymour. EA has been so much about the big buck in the past I wouldn't be shocked if they add buttons.

Can someone gameshare this with me?

Like the demo despite some of the issues. TPC is difficult, but am getting better the more I use it. Was a stick guy for FN3, so I just need some more time to get the feel back.

Have a good feeling this game will satisfy my boxing gaming needs. Dying to hear more about career mode, but based on community day hints, I am thinking it will be good.

Maybe but people have been moaning about the lack of buttons since it was announced months ago and you would have figured then was the time to do it rather than haphazardly adding it now. I'm sure EA also realizes like most of us do that many people are gonna bitch about lack of buttons even if TPC was perfect. (I find t pretty close to perfect) They just wanna bitch about something and half the guys haven't even tried the demo and are bitching about it.

I'm not sure why some people are complaining? The demo is excellent and I'm no EA fanboy. The graphics are amazing and it feels like your watching a fight on TV . As far as TPC .. I like it. I'm pretty sure with practice I'll get better at it. Another thing when I was fighting as Manny , Ricky would just come at me and I thought man this is just gonna be a slugfest. Then I played as Ricky and Manny was more about boxing and setting up his punches. So I think each fight will be different. My only complaint is that the camera moves so fast it makes it kind a hard to tell where your at in the ring. Now only if EA can make this type of improvement in NCAA and Madden.

I think some people are complaining because the are now out of their comfort zone and a very few who dominated with the parry/button mash are not pleased with the elimination of both.
