First and foremost, I hate boxing. I hate boxing games even more. I downloaded this demo simply because I cannot stand to be left out of anything concerning the 360. I fired this demo up and holyshitfishballsoup! As a 3D designer I have to say that the texturing and lighting in this game is the absolute best we've seen yet. The facial distortions during the slomo replays combined with the particle effects of sweat and blood are nuts. The hard lighting from above the ring really accents the amount of work that went into creating realistic animated muscles and textures. The gameplay only seems slow until you get the hang of the game. You have to place your punches fluidly and sparingly.

Since I'm not a boxing fan I don't care about specific characters or fighting my way to the top. All I want is the sweet sweet experience of knockin some next gen ass around the ring, and I already have it. Thanks for the free game EA, now I don't have to give you my $$!

I have never played this game before (I just don't like this type of games), but after this demo, I might buy the game. However, If I take OVERALL GFX of this game and Condemned, I would say Condemned has better GFX (hey, just my oppinion). But If I were only focusing on characters details, I would say this game is BEST looking so far.
In addition, after watching the PS3 Demo of the game at E3, I would say I am very disappointed. Don't get me wrong, PS3 will NOT do any better GFX than what 360 has to offer for this game (take the Demo as an example), but the whole point is what so much hype and "movies" have been seen, and at the end it turns disappointing. All I am trying to say is that this game is NO WAY NEAR "Film-like GFX" or the PS3 demo (movie shit).
To finalize, If I were to look from "in-game" GFX that I have seen on every console and PC, I would say I am very pleased to see how much improvement they have made over these years. Good JOB!!
Once again, don't get me wrong, but I am only disappointed with all of the hype going on.

holyshitfishballsoup!

That has to be one of the funniest things I've heard in a while

P.S. I love the sig by the way

Anyways, I thought the gameplay was a little slow at first to but once you get the hang of it its not so bad. You just have to ge used to pace of the game. When I play with Roy Jones, I hardly notice the speed difference because he naturally punches fast but overall I'm very impressed with the demo. A little tweaking needed and the game would be near perfect.

I took some time off to download the demo last night and all I can say is WOW. Shit the graphics look insane, I have never seen any game with such good graphics.

I havent read all the posts on this one but anyone else notice how easy it is to win with Hopkins and how hard it is to win with Jones. This game would of been a sleeper if it was not for the Demo. I had no idea this game looked or played this good. Now if they load the game with boxers and a great career mode it will be a must have and will ooze with replayability. Cant wait for Valentines day for once in my life, now not only can i fight with my lady but i can kick some virtual ass too(not that i hit her or anything)! CANT WAIT!

Since M$ has control of what we download, do you think they will put 'time limits' on how
long demos will play on your system, or on LIVE if the demo is LIVE compatable?

Has this ever been mentioned by anyone at M$...?

It'll never happen, and does not need discussing.

So, thats all we have to do is say that
something doesn't need to be discussed and it stops?

Jones is good you just need to know how to use him. I brought a few friends over to play and one of them beat the shit out of me with Jones. Hopkins is very slow but powerfull and Jones is fast but weak. You just have to know how to use them.

Yeah my brother thought the same thing because every time we played I was hopkins so we switched. He beat me with Hopkins the first time we played but thats cuz I wasn't used to Jones' speed. He claimed, " See it's easy to win when your Hopkins". I rematched cuz I couldn't believe it. He confidently agrees of course. Well the next three matches went to me as Jones and he said I was cheating somehow and stopped playing with me.

Yup, it comes out on Valentine's Day....

Ahhh there's nothing better than beating the $hit out of your significant other....
In a simulated pugilistic showdown that is

I'll let her pick Jones and I'll take B-Hop.
Two birds with one stone, I love it!
