No prob..i was gonna post it there but i was too lazy to go look over there. On the demo it says releases winter 06 but i've been hearing that it releases in feb.
I still can't believe what my eyes are telling me. Each time i see this game am like wow what a nice looking cgi movie. Then i pickup my controller and rearrange B. Hopkins FACE! This is amazing... EA You just got $60 from me!

I never liked the whole analog/punch thing back then but in RND 3 they have refined it. Took me 1 min to get use to it! This game is as smooth as butta, mixed with Sugar Ray Leonard, and packs a punch that Mike Tyson would be proud of.

I'm so pissed. I'm 800 or so miles away from my 360, so I can't download this. This is the highlight of 360 for me, so I hope EA does it right. Looks like they have the graphics right. They've made steps forward in the previous boxing games, so I hope it is as least as good as those. I'm hoping for an awesome career mode and a knock your socks off online mode with persistent records, belts, and the whole nine yards. Wouldn't it be cool if they set it up like real life? A few champs for each weight class. Work your way up the ladder type deal. Online. Oh man... I can't wait! I've heard Feb. 16. Anybody hearing anything different?

I am currently downloading fight night rd 3 as I type.
I am hoping it is better than part 2 because they really butchered it... turning it into an arcade haymaker slugfest which took no thought... no wonder why the mainstream liked it.
This demo will gimme a pretty good understanding if I am going to invest in this game or not.

there is no multiplayer in the demo but I would bet it to be in the final copy.
Also check out the people around the ring. You can get a good look at them when you knock someone down. Im not sure but it looks to me like what they did with NFS:MS by taking real actors and then making them more video gamish. I forget what its called but does anyone else agree with me?
on the replay those guys faces looks like a 64x64 texture.....one big blur i dunno what your talking about? mabey i got a bad LOD fuck up in replay

If they can stick with this through the rest of development without and details being left out, then im all for it. Im not a boxing fan, but imma definately play around with this for a while.

people should note that this is NOT an example of how all characters will look in the future. In this game there are 2 characters on screen and NOT a lot else... ever.... so they can and will dedicate much of the GPU/CPU to those 2 characters....
just thought I'd mentioned this and maybe bring a few light headed people back down to earth.
not downplaying anything you said but isnt that just commen sense? of course with smaller areas and very few people they can manage the resources of the GPU/CPU into a very beautiful scene but that doesnt mean that the game still isnt a gorgeous game in general. thats the same reason to why many fighting games are the best examples of what a system can do graphically (visually speaking) that is also why you cant compare a fighting game to a vast open area game because the resources of a game like morrowind is spread throughout the huge area as apposed to just a small arena. also regardless of any factors like resource management, i think its safe to assume that no matter how good this game looks, the 360 is capable of better then this and we will see games far more graphically impressive then this (technically speaking not just visually). just saying because those people who need to be dragged back down to earth not knowing what you stated should stop playing games now.
still the game looks impressive (especially for an EA title).

2. How can you tell the game runs at 30 fps?

Just my opinion but if anyone thinks the punches are to weak maybe your only punching into blocks. If you don't have a clear shot on the guy then it will be a weak looking punch. If you hit skin then you will hit hard. Also the more combos you hit the harder your punches will get. On top of that if your just punching all the time and not landing or always trying to block or bob & weave when you don't have to then your going to become tired and your punches will be a lot weaker (the announcer even tells you this). There are gameplay elements in this demo that are not explained because its simple a demo but there is defenitly a fatigue mechanism to this and it WILL make your punches weak. If you want to hit hard you got to be pretty decent. I would say the hardest hits are off of counter moves. Just block your opponents punch and it throws him off balance and slows him down leaving you time to wind up and really lay into him. I usually hit him with a hook off the counter and then a power punch. I'm just offering this to anyone who thinks the punches are weak because I personally think when I actually use skill to fight the punches are real strong and it looks like I'm almost going to knock someone out of the ring. Also Jones is alot better at counters and has a much faster power punch but Hopkins hits a lot harder. Just my 2 cents.
I noticed this as well... Jones is lightning fast during the first round... but the more you whip out punches in combos and keep mashin the buttons, the slower he responds. Great addition to the game with a fatigue mechanism... in earlier games, it wasn't nearly this good.

The graphics look good, but need higher res textures. It doesn't have the pop, like other 360 game's graphics do.
The grain effect in the game makes it look like the fighters are cut and paste looking like the original Mortal Kombat characters.
Character animation is great, but does not look to be 60 fps.

Does anyone know how much of the 360s power this game is using?
Just wondering when we'll get the first game to use all 3 cores
someone correct me if im wrong but there is never a really accurate way to judge how much a game is pushing the system. just like some launch titles, devs can claim that their game in development will harness the true/full power of the system but with every new generation of development tools and more time with the hardware developers always find new and improved ways to pushing the system, sometimes making the system do things it wasnt built to do. as for my guess, the game isnt pushing the hardware THAT hard really, a lot of effects arent really being used in the game, with only two main characters on the screen its easy to direct a lot of resources to just the characters, the backgrounds (while looking good) are pretty static with little to no movement and the only interaction there is is with the ropes, and the bulk of the impressive visuals comes mainly from the textures (IMO) which is not hard to keep at a high detail level considering how small the play area is.
we already are playing games that use all 3 cores. hell with a simple game like geometry wars using all 3 cores i highly doubt that there is any game that doesnt use 3 cores. the big question is when are we going to see more games that are specifically designed and developed to take advantage of multi-core/thread technology, games like condemned and PGR3 already are built for multi-core use but there is A LOT of room for improvement from an optimization and performance stand-point.

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.

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

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$...?

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?

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

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!
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!
