A recent preview by CBS covers UFC 2009 Undisputed in great detail providing a really solid overview of the game. While most of the info may not be new to those who have followed the developments it pulls everything together well. The career mode in particular sounds intriguing, however there has still not been a single mention made of what is planned for the game’s online play.

From beginning to end, the video game delivers an authentic UFC experience. After you select the fighters you want to use, a tale of the tape comes up, just like at a UFC event. Bruce Buffer delivers his inimitable introductions and each fighter receives a mixture of boos and cheers from the partisans in the crowd.

It’s going to be really interesting to monitor how UFC and Fight Night Round 4 come out of the next few months. As huge as the FN franchise is there seems to be that shift of anticipation towards UFC right now. The disappointing heavyweight roster and controversial decision to remove button puching in FN along with UFC being much popular as a sport has become more apparent as of late. The best thing is that it appears we’ll have two high quality games out late this spring and early summer whether you tend to lean towards one or the other.

      I think he saw that mark, and we've all known that there will be an online portion to the game. He was stating that we don't currently know the format or the structure of how online will work. Will we be able to put together our own PPV cards and have spectators? Will we be able to hold old school UFC tournament style matches? Will there be a lobby? Will there only be a simple matchmaking system? How is fighter selection handled? Those types of questions. We all want to know the online infrastructure and format. These days, an online mode is almost a given in all games. Only a few exceptions that come out now without an online mode. We just want some details on the multiplayer functionality.

    Fight Night…or…UFC 2009…….ummmmmm…this one's super easy for me fellas—->UFC hands down! Especially w/the whole create a fighter and take them online against others!!! Better roster & better sport, period. Boxing has no legs right now in our country (Ali & Tyson on the cover says it all) and MMA is bigger than ever.

    I'll definitely be getting this game, but Fight Night should be the better game.

    I'm not a boxing fan but I'm getting FNR4 and this one anyway. I do also think FNR4 will be a better game but I love MMA and I'll support it when I can :) hopefully it will play good online too
