Fight Night, from EA Sports, is quickly becoming the best boxing franchise on the market and this latest version, the first for the PS3, is proof of this. Fight Night 3 features unbelievable levels of graphical detail and really shines when it goes into slow motion for the heavy punches. The shots of mouthguards and blood spraying out of the boxers' mouths are memorable to say the least. You start by creating your own fighter for career mode and the levels of customisation abilities are second to none. You could easily spend a few hours in this section alone. Once you have done that the fights and training begins. You start out pretty ...  Read the complete review

"Your Gonna Eat Lightening And Crap Thunder" the immortal words of micky from the rocky films rang through my mind as i created my boxer for career mode in EA's epic fight night round 3. I couldn't wait to hit the ring and throw a few punches as this was my first boxing title i'd invested in since the original "knockout kings" that i loved. Besides i had an ulterior motive.. I had to get good so i could whip my freinds ass around the ring (what with him being ex uk amateur champ an all). So i find myself in my first fight after my initial training (during which i was goaded on by my coach who sounded somewhat like the micky charachter ...  Read the complete review

After getting my ps3 a few weeks ago I instantly went on IGN.com to find out what games I should buy (and Amazon to buy them) one of the games I came across, which was also cheap (second hand for about £6); was this game by EA Sport (Electronic Arts). The third game from the franchise was released way back in 2006 but it still looks fantastic in my opinion (I can't comment on the newer round 4 until I buy it though) with the boxers movement and styles spot on (all real and some classic ones, Ali for example). In fact this game is a port of the PS2 game with slightly tweaked game play and graphics. The game play is fast and very responsive with controls ...  Read the complete review

Fight night round 3, nowadays becasue of the new version, it is currently going cheap, you may find it fot £19.99 or so, depending on where you look. Bought the game couple of months back after seeing a friend having it on the ps2, and the graphics for a start were so much better , and so was the sound. Also there is more new features to the game, abd when you fight instad of seeing them to the left and right on the screen, all you see is the apponment and yourself facing it, with only seeing a blur outline and you stance positioned hands. Really got fascinated all by this new stuff, but I think it suits me the other old way, for easier to control, still I am sure you .  Read the complete review

I got this game about a week ago for my PS3 and I have played it quite alot already, so I thought Id submit a review to give you an idea of my opinion. I played the original fight night for the ps3 a few years back and found it to be very addicting. The training followed by a fight makes for quite and addictive gaming system which you wont be able to switch off. I did find the game a bit repetitive in the end though, and also fairly easy on the normal setting. Onto round 3, and all the same points exist. Its an excellent addictive game, but literally nothing has changed since the last one i played (much the way EA normally work I suppose). Dont get ...  Read the complete review
