EA MMA Review

Posted on January 29th, 2010 by Gamers Fury in Fighting Video Games


By far one of the most controversial games set to come out in 2010, EA Sport’s MMA may be more of a threat to UFC Undisputed then most people think. Unlike UFC Undisputed however, EA Sports has gone to great lengths to ensure that their game has a more organic feel to its combat. Fighters can throw punches simultaneously without waiting for their opponent’s animation to finish. The video shows player models for Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers grappling on the ground. Fedor threw punches to Brett’s head as Rogers struck the Russian.

Also adding to the natural feel of the fighting is the artificial intelligence of the fighters. When the two combatants are far away from each other in the ring their guard will go down and they’ll have a more relaxed strut to their walk. As they get closer they’ll put their hands up and get into their fighting stance just as you’d see in a real fight. The fighting is practically based off of the Fight Night Round 4 engine but is just a more heavily modified version to make it more like MMA. EA Sports is also putting a lot of effort and time into making sure that each of the bruisers in its game play as close to their real life counterpart as possible. If you’re worried about the same counter system from Fight Night Round 4 making its way to EA Sports MMA, don’t be.

It is still up for grabs whether or not EA’s MMA will be able to compete with the UFC. However it shows many promising things and it has fighters that are not featured in the UFC game as well. It will most likely not even matter to some people as they will probably buy both games.
