I would have more fun getting a prostate exam from the jolly green giant... ground game is broken, blocking is spotty, punching is wildlyI would have more fun getting a prostate exam from the jolly green giant... ground game is broken, blocking is spotty, punching is wildly unrealistic, better off with fight night champion!

Graphics are insane and combat gameplay pretty good. Lots of characters, decent modes, and online head to head. Career mode is boring thoughGraphics are insane and combat gameplay pretty good. Lots of characters, decent modes, and online head to head. Career mode is boring though no motivation to play. here's an example of why i rated this game low.. This is specifically for ultimate team mode. In Madden there are a ton of challenges and regardless of spending money you can atleast make a good team. With Ufc its totally pay to win and the ranking matchup system is a joke. The more you pay the more moves and skills you get. Grinding for wins without money for packs is a joke. And if my fighter is 69 dont match me against a 80...

EA Sports pre determined/rigged matches strike again (in my opinion)..After spending the past few weeks playing UFC 2, and as a massiveEA Sports pre determined/rigged matches strike again (in my opinion)..After spending the past few weeks playing UFC 2, and as a massive MMA fan, I can't help but feel underwhelmed by what EA Sports has offered this time round. Sure, it's an improvement on the last game, but still ends up in practically all fights being decided by holding your opponent on the floor and hitting them with sloppy ground and pound.I've spoken to friends before who feel EA Sports games (like FIFA), can be very much pre determined by the AI and your opponent will change their style to keep you invested in the game...Sucking on the game? Got a streak of 3 losses on the bounce? You'll somehow be able to knock Conor Mcgregor out within 20 seconds in your next fight, just to give you a glimmer of hope to keep pushing on and playing the game.Beating everyone in your path on career mode? Well you'll soon see your attacking power completely diminish and every opponent you come across will be an unstoppable monster. No matter what you do or try against your opponent, sometimes it feels like they are destined to smash you to bits. And believe me, it's not sour grapes that I can't win every fight, like MMA in real life I'm prepared to take losses on my record, but I can't help but feel the game does slightly 'adapt' depending on your progress throughout the game. I also understand that in regular, real life MMA, ANYTHNG can happen. Fights can be over in less than 20 seconds, but UFC2 never really seems to capture this 'real' feeling, resulting in repetetive fights no matter what weight class you choose. Reversals and counters don't really seem to work, but your AI opponent can pull them off with such simple ease whilst popping off shots to the head and attempting submissions.On career mode with my created fighter, I lost 3 straight fights on the bounce and got so frustrated that I considered not playing the game ever again. Decided to have one more fight (against a fighter rated 100, I was rated 85), and surprise surprise... I won within 30 seconds. Maybe coincidence, but these things occured too often for me to believe that it's to do with the way I fight and my skill level.Also, after a while the game does start to feel extremely repetitive. Punch, block, kick, block, opponent attempts 100 take downs, opponent clinches you 100 times, opponent tries to tap you out, opponent top mounts you in the ground and pound and wins. My perks for flash knockdowns are completely upgraded and in at least 30 fights on my career I must've knocked someone clean out from standing position maybe once or twice, the rest of the time fights are spent holding my opponent on the floor and trying to get punches and elbows from the mount. The vast majority of matches are only won in this position, regardless of how good you are at submitting your opponent or striking from a standing position.All in all, I found the early parts of career mode to be exciting, The Ultimate Fighter bits when you start the game are really cool, and in the early stages of career you really feel a sense of excitement as you move up the ranks towards a title shot. Get yourself in the top spot in your weight division though, and that's where the pre-determined fights really feel like they're starting to come in.Knockout Mode is completely lacklustre, it tries to sell itself as a great party game to play against your friends which isn't true, all you have to do is throw blind punches and kicks and hope some of them connect. Ultimate Team is pointless and feels like a complete cash grab, online mode isn't worth doing either unless you want your frustration levels elevated further...The positives for me was that the graphics really are fantastic, the walk down to the octagon feels realistic with the 'tale of the tape' stuff being pretty accurate. The commentary is good and doesn't sound too repetitive. The roster is also stacked with fighters from all weight divisions, including a solid roster of female fighters to choose from.In conclusion I wouldn't reccomend this game to any avid MMA fan, the older games (Undisputed) were much better back in the day but I can imagine them to feel dated now if I went back to them. I would wait until the price of this game drops dramatically (just like the first EA UFC did after a few months) before checking it out. Don't bother paying full price like I did...

EA Sports makes its second appearance in the UFC’s famed Octagon. The fighter’s sophomore effort is solid: it has good technique, impresses visually and feels like the real thing, although its ground game could be better. UFC 2 is a contender in the making.
