IGN has the first trailer for Fight Night Round 4 that includes actual gameplay footage. The trailer attempts to display some different new aspects of the game such as the importance of height and reach and being one punch away from victory. Once again the cover athletes Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali are featured. Continue on to view the trailer and leave your thoughts in the comments.

im liking what im seeing….. if this is actual in game footage and not a lie this is promising to be graphically great….
March 12, 2009 at 7:06 pm
Looks extremely impressive IMO. Cant wait to get my hands on a demo. Plus im curious to hear your impressions Pasta.
March 12, 2009 at 8:00 pm
Yeah, I'll be seeing it tonight. I've been told there will be some embargoes but that they will probably be more of the 24 hour type (probably different establishments have different exclusives)
March 12, 2009 at 8:00 pm
I get the feeling that once you get past the fun of using Tyson and Ali this game will suck. Just a total hunch on my part.

Based off what's been said, they are supposedly putting a lot of work into the career/legacy mode. I usually just create my own fighter. I liked how Ali had a robe and Tyson had a shirt, something small but adds to the atmosphere. I got goosebumps watching Ali shuffle. Or How about the Tyson punch hitting the side of Ali's glove instead of clipping or going through. I guess EA is really putting a lot of work on it.

Those camera flashes will get annoying quick

The graphics look incredible. I remember when FN3 had all the hype because of the face crunching blows. Amazing how far the visuals have progressed on the current consoles.
I can't wait to play the demo. Any news on when a demo could be expected? I know FN3 demo was out a couple of months early.
Also, any news on the finalized roster. Brin on McNealy and Douglas….
March 12, 2009 at 9:04 pm
agreed.
March 12, 2009 at 9:52 pm
why am i not impressed by this.. alis jabs looked terrible.
March 12, 2009 at 9:59 pm
ya i noticed that too, hes not flicking his jab.
March 12, 2009 at 10:09 pm
WHERE IS ALI'S SIG STYLE? THIS WAS IN PAST GAMES
March 12, 2009 at 10:03 pm
Any word on when the roster will release Pasta?
March 12, 2009 at 10:09 pm
I dont want a gameplay trailer like that. What I want is them to show a fighter get hooked 5 times unprotected to the head, and see what happens. If its anything like any other boxing game they have ever produced, it will mean that there are 60 or so hooks to go before the fighter drops.
March 13, 2009 at 11:29 am
Agreed.
March 12, 2009 at 10:46 pm
When are they gonna put me in? I get passed over every year and I know the people feel they are cheated by not having James "Buster" Douglas up in this game. The best boxing game ever was James "Buster" Douglas Knockout Boxing for Sega Genesis. Most realistic boxing game ever! You know it be true.
March 12, 2009 at 10:46 pm
WTF! It is a well known fact that Evander Holyfield's Real Deal Boxing is the gold standard that all boxing games aim to achieve. It was so realistic you had to play it with a mouthpiece.
March 12, 2009 at 10:47 pm
BS! My game Mike Tyson's Punch-Out set the bar that no other sports game can compete with. What other PAST sports game can you get others to play with they see it? huh? I'm the Clive Davis in the video game world all I do is make hits! EA came up to me because they wanted a winner because they know I can push those units!

Only in America Baby!

If I can do it you can dew it
March 12, 2009 at 11:39 pm
LMAO!! Man this game blows! You can clearly see that this game is NOTHING like EA has been advertising! What happened to the fluid gameplay, fast pace, and the R.E.A.L styles? Those fighters move like they have 200lb weights on their hands! Did you see Ali's jab? My grandmother jabs faster than that! You guys are trying to convince yourselves that it looks good because you were so hyped up, but face REALITY fellas! The styles of BOTH fighters are so off, and the graphics look like crap! Can't wait to see what the EA nuthugger Pasta is gonna say about this garbage! He won't admit it's crap, that's for sure!
March 12, 2009 at 11:48 pm
I agree dude this game does not look that good. I mean, what the hell were the fighters doing right at the beginning of the fight? It looked like they were dancing with each other at 00:23! The shots had virtually no snap or crispness to them, this looks like Prizefighter all over again.
To be honest, the leaked youtube video looked better and more fluid than this video.
March 13, 2009 at 1:35 am
what the hell r they gonna do put Ali in a mocap suit and they try get his jab exactly how u want it?My god the first trailer just came out and we already got complainers
March 13, 2009 at 8:40 am
IT WAS ALREADY DONE PROPERLY IN PAST GAMES WHAT PART DONT YOU UNDERSTAND SON?
March 13, 2009 at 12:29 am
You guys obviously have no knowledge of video games. This is one of the better looking games i've seen on a next-gen system. But it's understandable, not everyone is going to like it, there will always be haters case in point " Earl/UGK
March 13, 2009 at 2:16 am
Agreed! You guys saying that this game sucks 1st of all have nothing to base that on being that we only saw about 5 seconds of gameplay & 2nd of all you will never be satisfied because like Ali said this game has some of the best graphics I've ever seen (if that trailer is indeed real gameplay) & I'm sure the gameplay will match. What more do you guys want in a video game?
March 13, 2009 at 8:42 am
Us boxing fans dont need to have "knowledge of video games" to judge if something is an accurate simulation of boxing. Its all of you in the video game bubble, who know nothing about half the sport games you play that are ruining everything
March 13, 2009 at 4:39 am
this game is dope

You know its fitting Ali and Tyson are the cover guys for fight night, because its been obvious for many years that the only boxing EA developers have ever watched are: Ali-Frazier and Tyson's early knockouts.
March 14, 2009 at 4:31 pm
I hope the presentation is up to par with the last-gen system versions of the same game. The lack-luster legacy mode sucks like a baby on a tit(real hard)
March 17, 2009 at 6:46 pm
game looks sicccckkkkk
