    I really liked UFC 1 (except the bs submissions that i'm salty as h--- at because I s----d at them) but online was fun as h--- and the way EA updated the roster with patches for free was pretty f---ing cool. Disappointed at the fact that there's already 4 for purchase fighter packs (plus microtransactions) tbh, but im sure the base game will be fun anyway. I still have about 10 minutes left on my download. Online on 1 was fun as f--- so I'm hoping 2 holds up. I haven't looked that much into the game so far admittedly other than trailer and a few featurettes/previews, but I think i read about a new career mode or something? Hopefully that's cool because UFC1's career mode was s---. Create a fighter also looks a lot better from what I remember too. Hoping it's worth the god d--- 90 dollars video games cost in canda.

    I had 1 and I thought the old THQ games were better as far as game play & mechanics go. Will give this a shot since there's not a lot of fighting games out.

    I thought the 1st 2 were really good, didn't get a chance to play the 3rd one. Maybe I gave up too quickly on UFC 1 but it just felt so sloppy.

    Been playing it all afternoon. I like it better than UFC 1, but Undisputed 3 made by THQ is probably still my favorite (so far...)

    You guys will never know the struggle of early UFC games. Be thankful.

    I played a few matches and really enjoyed UFC 1. This one is better gameplay wise for sure. You can now feint hits (couldn't do this in UFC 1 but could in undisputed 3). The stamina is very important to keep an eye on. I found in UFC 1 it would kind of be take turns on offense until someone gets ko'd. Here it seems you got to pick your shots and not gas out too much or your opponent could send you home easily.

    The one thing I do notice compared to the Beta is when on the ground with your opponent on top of you if you hold R2 the defense prompt doesn't pop up. However, in the skills challenge it does. So idk if the prompt would only show up on easier settings or not. It would show up during the beta but in the final game it's not there no more.

    yea ea is really jewey with DLC which is why i was so surprised that they'd patch and update new balancing and s--- to UFC 1, as well as entire roster packs and updates for free. I was hoping that'd continue into ufc2 but i guess not

    I called customer service. They told me to call back tomorrow/2 days so I'll eventually get a code I hope. Though there's rumours Tyson, Sakuraba and Rutten can be unlocked in the game.

    I never bought Bruce Lee or Royce in UFC 1 and didn't do the career mode so never got to play as them. It's cool Bruce unlocked for me in this and they put Royce in their automatically.

    And s--- I destroyed DC in 53 seconds with Jon Jones it was incredible lol.Hit him with a spinning back elbow, he backed away leaned in to punch me I swayed back and did a karate styl crane kick to rock him. Elbow he falls to the ground a couple of hammer fists and he's out. I was 11/11 for strikes haha.

    My friend and I would be in tears laughing whenever the UFC 1 physics of us both flying back would happen. In here it's so awesome. Pepper a couple shots then BOOM spinning roundhouse kick to legit FLATTEN the guy out on the mat lol.It's so awesome.

    I remember in the beta I landed a jumping knee as the guy was flying in a take down he went FLYING right back got huge air.

    I almost recreated Silva and Bisping I was beating him up and rocked him at the end of the round went for a flying knee as he was against the cage but just missed as the buzzer sounded. It was sweet lol.
