Prizefighter roster and trailer

and it doesnt look like Rocky LOL (for the fanboys)

[quote comment="17436"]where is felix trinidad? !hello[/quote]

He’s sleeping.

earlier when i said “don king owns every boxer why do he have these
c-class boxers.come on no maywehether,klistico,tarver,roy jones,toney,patton,winky,benard,and i cant even name the rest. good looking game though”
I was drunk and for got that Tarver is doe, Roy Jones is over 40 and done, James toney is fat and also done, I spelled hatton wrong and forgot that his future is questionable, winky’s knee’s are done and he is also boring to watch mostly and done, bernard is uber-boring and dirty and should be done forever especially after next weekend,

prize fighter not only has more boxers, but more current CHAMPIONS- In FN round 3 i had to creat Wlad, and Calzaghe as well as many others. The list of fighters is better than any other boxing game, so I cannot be dissapointed and I’m sorry for being an utter moron

In all fairness to FNR3, it has a solid engine. If the only thing FNR4 does is to get rid of the parrying, FNR4 would be 10x better.

Also, to me the biggest problem I anticipate Prizefighter will have is some awkwardness in the controls. It might not be as accessible as the FN games and could have to force players to do some awkward button combinations involving the shoulder buttons, but that’s it.

it looks good and dope lineup, im ready for june (sorry PS3 players). Im beating Pasta to that punch because that will be a post that he starts when june comes… Prizefighter not on PS3, what a disappointment (that will be the heading).

PS3=Dreamcast

peace to the button mashers LOL

PS3′s got a heck of a lot more going for it than the Dreamcast. I think the main reason it was excluded for Prizefighter are the extra costs that 2K Sports can’t really afford. Too potential problems. It’s hard enough to make a brand new game with a brand new engine to work for the 360,let alone for the PS3, known for how difficult it is to make games for. Also, I’ve said this a dozen times, but the ONLY solution to button mashing is a realistic stamina model. Players should be able to throw as many punches as physically possible. The problem with FNR3 was it’s possible to throw 150 punches per round without getting tired. Players should be able to button-mash, and pay the price.

Dude, you took the words right outa my mouth. LOL. This is a joke of a game. Only the truest of 2k fangirls will buy this P.O.S. game.

THIS, is what 2k is going up against FightNight with…….ROFLMAO.

Pull the plug now 2k. You are embarassing yourselves. Just sell out to EA and get it over with already………… Jeez!!!!!

Yeah I expected it to be stronger. Either they paid all that money to Don King (1+ million) and couldn’t spend it on the fighters or the next Fight Night tied up most of the big names. It definitely would take a hardcore boxing fan to recognize most of these names (the current fighters).[/quote]

Cmon Pasta, you know the answer to that question. Of Course EA tied up all the “legitimate” talent in boxing for there next Fight night. 2k is second rate and will always be that.

I can’t wait for EA to put them out of there misery. But Hey…..2k will always have tennis….ROFLMAO.

No, YOU are the EA fanboy who’s upset because you won’t be able to use 5-second parries online anymore and cheese your way to victory. Cat’s out of the bag now, it doesn’t matter if Prizefighter had nothing but fictitious fighters, it will never be as horrible as FNR3. You can mast*****te to FNR3′s roster all day long if you’d like.

If EA could “put 2K out of their misery” they wouldn’t be trying to buy them out. EA can’t beat the competition so they try to buy it. LOL. They could spend $2 billion on research and making their games better, but instead they’d rather spend it on buying out the competition. This is proof that EA does not have what it takes. EA should thank its lucky stars for morons like you who buy their garbage.

FNR3 is “true boxing sim” featuring:
-parrying that leaves one fighter frozen for 5 seconds
-throwing 150 punches per round without getting tired
-every fighter wearing basketball shorts and bobbing their heads to hip hop as they enter the ring
-g a y m a k e r s

ROFL

Believe it or not I understand the decision to only go with the 360 for this game. Its a business decision and I can respect that. Its better than putting out a PS3 version that isn’t up to the standard of the 360.

Just curious what do you mean “peace to the button mashers”? You realize Prizefighter uses buttons for punching not the analog stick right?

Pasta, button-mashing has nothing to do with the control scheme, when referring to these boxing games. Even if you use TPC in FNR3, you can still “button mash.” Button mashing is being able to punch at unrealistically high rates without any consequence. If a player wants to throw 200 punches in one round, he should be able to but then suffer the consequence of punching himself out. In FN 2004, at least there was a realistic punch output and when you threw flurry after flurry, you will reach the point where you can only throw one punch at a time.

LOL, I said that because I know that strikes a nerve. You hate 2k’s kicking stick, you hate 2k’s pitching stick, but you love Fight Nights stick and tiger woods stick use LOL. I am a button masher (I changed my Fight Night to mash), peace to all the button mashers… Whats the diffence from mashing to games like Call of Duty, Kane and lynch, mashing to score w/ Live 08, mashing to throw passes in your beloved madden and etc… The mashing will never stop bro. Dont get mad cause I like your site for updates, but your opinions never matter to me because a dope game is a dope game.

Peace to the Button Mashers worldwide (once again)!!!

Just a news flash for you. You can’t buy out a company that isn’t having financial problems. 2k can’t compete with EA and there sales figures prove it. If they were making money hand over fist they wouldn’t be in danger of having the company taken over via a hostile takeover.

As far as me being an EA fanboy. I am a sports gamer and with the exception of nba 2k series 2k is largely garbage. Since I could care less about basketball and it really doesn’t matter if 2k goes away, I will be glad when 2k ceases to exist.

They have crappy customer service, crappy forum support, and they basically release broken or substandard products (mlb 2k8) year after year.

Sorry guy but 2k is finished and you had better just get used to the sound of that b/c you know and I know that you will be all over EA’s nutz next year, so don’t deny it.

You and all the other 2k cronies are not just going to give up gaming and I hardly think your going to play the same broken 2k8 garbage games for eternity but who knows, NFL 2k5 losers are still playing that vice breaking down and playing Madden.

EA Sports is a master at marketing, which is why it makes billions making garbage. Now if EA only spent a small fraction of what they spend on advertising, on actual gameplay research and development, there’d be no incentive for them to buy out 2K. Madden is a broken game, especially the last one. EA’s only true competition is 2K Sports when it comes to the sports gaming division, where 2K embarrasses EA year after year after year. How does EA respond? By monopolizing the sport. If EA ever gets the monopoly, EA employees like you should celebrate, but it will mark the end of sports videogames as the consumers will have nothing but garbage.

Actually I liked the kicking stick in APF and would like to see a form of that instituted for Madden/NCAA where the kicking game has always been too easy. Did you even read my impressions after playing APF?

I also didn’t like the pitching stick in MVP NCAA Baseball. I think it felt pretty natural in Fight Night although I’ll say again I was not a huge fan of the game overall.

I tend to like the stick for secondary things (like freestyle moves in Live) as opposed to relying on it for the main actions.

I won’t have a chance to recap this until late tonight or morning, but heres IGN’s early preview

http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/866/866437p2.html

anyone who thinks the fighters list is weak doesn’t know boxing or doesn’t watch it.

I haven’t seen a stronger list of fighters outside a text sim.

All we have to do is compare this list with existing lists and you see that it’s bigger and better.

The roster is good, but Hatton , Mayweather , Tyson and Klitshco are definiatley needed, jus hope their is edit mode!

i have seen another roster on wikipedia and other sites. and it has mayweather and tyson and so on. but i heard some of the names will be fake. and ali is in it along with foreman. but they dont have mosley and cotto even oscar and hopkins. they took all the people from fight night out. and put al the people in. they need both combined. they should have downloads available for updates and suff. this will be a good career. but it seems a little cheasy like fight night. the trailers fihting looked gay. graphics are alright. this was supposed to be a sim.. i hope it is

When does this game come out in the UK?

I also think that the roster is pretty good but there are a few big time fighters that are needed such as:
-Klitchsko
-Mayweather
-Hatton(even tho hes not that good)
-Jermain Taylor
-De la Hoya
-Cotto
-Trinidad

the list above by the way is of jus present fighters
i think that these shud be some legend names on the roster:
-Foreman
-Tyson
-Gatti
-Barrera
-Lennox Lewis
-Ali
-Sugar Ray Leonard
-Jake Lamotta

i will defenatly buy this game becuz i am a big boxing fan i just hope it does not dissapoint me.

well, i gotta add a little critisism to this new 2k game.. graphics, story, gameplay looks great, but, like everyone else, the roster is so terrible.. no de la hoya, sugar ray lenard, roburto duran, bernard hopkins, james tony, jake lamatta, sugar ray ROBINSON, jermain taylor, or anyone else that is great that i might have missed.. how can you forget them?! i mean, de la hoya just fought may 3, he still around today and by far a fan favorite.. this game would be the ultimate boxing game if those fighters were included in the “classic fighters” list.. they take out some and add george forman, mike tyson, lennex lewis.. and a few other great names, which im excited to try out, but it is almost depressing that they didnt include some of the fighters that MADE the sport.. sugar ray leonard was the muhammad ali of the welterweight devision.. no rivalry fight between hearns and leonard i guess.. just sucks. i will be adding another forum as soon as i try the game of course.. but i agree with the other 90% of you out there that are PISSED about the roster too.. lol kinda a joke
