Peter Moore Talks About Fight Night Reveal

In his most recent blog posting EA Sports president Peter Moore discussed the Fight Night Round 4 reveal being made at the Spike Video Game Awards on Sunday. Reference is made to a “special guest” which seems likely to be Mike Tyson and a summer release date instead of previously stated spring. In addition they’ll be showing off something “never before seen in a videogame”.

I hope you’ll all be watching the Spike VGAs live this Sunday, where I’ll be joined by a special guest on stage to show the world premiere of Fight Night Round 4. Fight Night Round 3 remains one of the most critically and commercially successful games of this hardware generation, and I’ll never forget when I saw the first concept video of the game back more than two years ago. On Sunday, you’re going to see something never before seen in a videogame. And next summer, I’m confident you’ll see a game that will build on the rich heritage of this great franchise.

The last time Moore made a statement as strong as that it had to do with NBA Live 09′s 365 feature. Before it was announced he referred to it as “ground-breaking”…and that it was. So can EA deliver something never seen before with FNR4? And what do you think that could be? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

Fight Night Round 4 is probably going to be one heck of a game. We'll see whether or not EA can deliver because I think that the fans deserve a great boxing game.

EA cutting jobs means their profits are in the stinker. LOL at blaming on holiday sales. How about animations, lack of AI, and stale presentation.

I don’t see how talking about an upcoming game that’s the best in it’s genre is showing EA bias. I prefer 2k for NBA but Prizefighter and NHL 2k are just 2 games that they are behind the EA equivalent on. No need to go trolling around the site criticising it every time Pasta talks about an EA game. There are 2 companies for sports games so chances are that a fair amount of posts are going to be EA

Yo i hope it's not some lame feature that no one cares about. They gotta get R4 right and they gotta have Floyd in the game, period! Pay Floyd whatever he wants because the game will sell 80% better with Floyd in it.

Yo for real dude having ALL the boxers dancing during ring walks was just retarded. They made it seem like all the fighters were like Naseem Hamed. That clown Kudo probably put that crap in there. Can you see Tyson coming into the ring dancing? Leave that kinda crap out and make this game REALISTIC!!!!

I can't wait to beat up Mayweather with Shane Mosley. Tyson should be fun to play as too. I hope they get some more of the classic heavyweights like Louis and Marciano.
