Have you played VB2 or Boxer's Road 2? If you're a real boxing fan, you'd change your mind pretty quick. Though yeah I wish the games had an online mode.

I'd rather they had left out the oldddd guys like Ali and Robinson and maybe you could have unlocked the legends in career mode.
Sticking the same fighter in more than 1 weight class is ****ing poor.
Not having the p4p #1 fighter in the world on the game is also ****ing poor.
They should have had Tyson, Lewis, Mayweather, Hamed, Calzaghe, Klitschko those kind of fighters.
The create a character is **** aswell. I dont wanna have Gatti's ****ing hair. I want normal hair not a mother****ing mohawk!!!!Comment

The whole lack of characters thing I look at as a marketing strategy. EA does it with all their games; They’ll fix up something real nice and promote it, but they leave you something to crave. So Rd 4 will probably have more characters but make minimal enhancements on game play or career mode or whatever it may be any given year.
As far as VB2 or Boxer’s Road2 go, no I haven’t played them. Whether I like them better than FN3 or not doesn’t make me any less of a boxing fan. As I said, I’m not a big video game fan. I’ve mastered FN3 and that’s all I really play. I’ll definitely check those games. I've played the first VB and I liked it at the time, the thing that gets me with the EA also is the fact that its real fighters and of course the online.Comment

it does matter if you're a real boxing fan or not. br2 and vb2 cater to boxing fans more while Fight Night caters to fools more. VB2 being more of a boxing sim than an actual boxing game with licensed boxers should tell you all you need to know.
Did you ever play Greatest Heavyweights or The Ring Middleweights game, both on Sega and SNES I think. Both had lots of real boxers, but both games basically ******. Actually seems like they were basically the same game. HBO Boxing, KO Kings, etc had real fighters, but KO Kings 2001 was the only worth while KO Kings game. Fight Night, psh, they're all mostly garbage. Why do you care if it's licensed fighters if they don't even fight like themselves? Look at KO Kings 2002, you got every ****ing person on the entire game fighting like Muhammad Ali, including DLH, Klitschko, and even ****ing Butterbean, lmao.
Don't get me wrong, EA boxing titles are still better than Ready 2 Rumble and Rocky and crap, but they're still nothing close to sim boxing. It's still basically arcade boxing. Doesn't mean it can't be hard and can't require good gaming skill. Darts and Pool take a certain amount of skill, but they're not sports. Fight Night can take skill, especially against human players I'm sure, but it's no boxing sim. And a true boxing fan will appreciate the boxing sim more than an arcade game. That's all I'm saying.Comment

I'd have to agree that BR2 doesn't make their characters look all that flashy, but that doesn't even matter when the gameplay is pretty solid. There are are couple things I would add (online mode, switch between block/sway if you don't have that special move set), but it's still a great game.
Well there is actually a way to play online, but I still need to try it out.Comment

Fight Night Round 2 was much better than Round 3. I can't get over just how slow R3 is. I've only played it two times since I've owned it.Comment
