I was able to see an eight minute video of UFC 3 while covering the show yesterday. Unfortunately, outside of some quick announcements and gameplay video, there was not a whole lot of meat to the presentation's proverbial bones. While most of what was shown in the video was already known, mainly the addition of Pride, I can speak on a few aspects that have yet to be discussed in much depth.

The part about striking doesn't sound good at all.

The main thing I hope is that it's not a knockout fest like 2010 was. You could take Jon Fitch and consistently knock guys out early in fights if you wanted to.

Thanks for the brutally honest and candid review Chase.
It sure doesn't sound good.

I haven't played EA's MMA game, but from what I've read their submission system is done well. Why wouldn't THQ just copy what they know works?

Hopefully they can fix up a lot of these issues before release.
With FNC being a disappointment, I was hoping for a good combat sports game to enjoy over the winter.
Looks like I might have to pick up NBA2K12 to get my sports fix this fall/winter.

thanks for being honest. Sounds like i'll be passing on this one. The UFC games usually only keep my attention for a few weeks and then thats it except for the once in a blue moon game so its not worth buying a new one just for rosters & pride if the gameplay is still iffy.

Yeah I feel the same way as BlueNGold, 2010 was a "knockout fest" if you look at a real UFC post fight card you'll see most victorys was by decision rather then knockouts.

That's too bad about the submission system when I 1st heard about it thought it sounded stupid Im glad I got confirmation.

UFC 2010 you could predict when somebody was gonna get KO by the blood on the mat and rather or not they was in a dominant position.

I love watching the AI Vs AI matches, and I have yet to see a comp submit another comp, which is insane.

I admit I've never played this series before.
But it seems that UFC 09 got lots of love. What happened?
