"EA SPORTS MMA brings the authenticity of the world’s most intense combat sport home like never before. Go on the offensive with a dynamic control system for strikes, elbows, knees and kicks and strategically manage advances and counters with an intuitive submission system. Battle it out in the Strikeforce cage or deliver vicious soccer kicks and head stomps in a ring in Japan. Are you ready? Let’s get it on!"

Here are some of my impressions. I bumped it onto Legend and played as Overeem against Lashley.

Controls are simple, sprawling is easily done as is regaining guard or getting up from the bottom. The striking game when you combine the sliding with some of the awkward looking punches doesn't do it for me. I felt like I was getting stuck in animations. Rounds are lengthier, it seemed like an actual five minutes almost compared to UFC 2010's 2 and a half minute rounds. Lashley went 11/21 in the takedown department and landed 51/90 strikes but I won by KO in the 2nd round. The ground stuff looks pretty good and feels pretty good reponse wise.
