I decided to play Fight Night Champion after owning FNR4. The game is like a Rocky movie and that says it all.
Non-realistic punches - I am pretty sure IF David Haye or Lennox Lewis lands a right hand with your guard down, you will be KO'd instantly or brutally hurt.
Lack of 'boxing' - The game doesn't appeal or even cater for the likes of Floyd Mayweather, if you want to jab and move this should be taken into consideration by the judges but it doesn't.
Poor commentary - I am pretty sure Teddy Atlas on the game said he likes to **** on the inside when I wasn't even punching. Generic phrases.
Arm length issue - try throwing a left or right hook, the hook is exactly the same each time. Last time i was in the ring i could throw hooks based on how short or long and at different angles. The game cannot do this.
Ring Generalship - I don't think EA understand what this is. :@...
Lack of weight classes - since when was Hatton a welterweight? His career and peak was at Light Welterweight.
Create your own boxer - If i make someone 260lbs + 6'8 AND put all the sliders to the end and effectively make him 100 rating I should be able to KNOCK out a guy in 2 weight divisions lower with one or 2 right hands. It doesn't happen in the game.
The crowd are programmed to act the same - I find the whole experience of the game ******, the crowd do the same thing over and over again, 'stand up wave and repeat'.
They just want to appeal to the mass market because they know that's what lines there pockets for $. I find casual boxing fans, "Don't know **** about boxing!" (spoken like Roger Mayweather
).. Like on the game they will spam with repeated uppercuts, AS IF THATS POSSIBLE in boxing? counter left hook will almost possibly end the night.
Id rate this game 3/10.
