Fight Night Round 3 (Xbox 360)

I have played fight night round three many a time and i think its a great game and its totally addictive ! Its graphics are just simply amazing as every little detail is put into the game ! Secondly the game is really easy to play as i have a little cousin who is 9 and can sometimes beat me . Thirdly the multiplayer and xbox live is totally awsome ! There are also some bad things about the game aswell . Firstly there arent that many boxers to choose from . Secondly the types of punches and moves you can do on your opponent are very limited . This gets repetitive and boring after a while . Overall i would try and get this game but not brand new . I would get ...  Read the complete review

I was not expecting this game to be as good as it was and being one the first games out on the PS3 thought that it was a great game. The graphics in this game were amazing, you can see all the likeness of the boxers and you will instantly recognise the most famous of the lot. The game has some nice slow motion moments before knock outs etc where you see a spay of spit everywhere which graphically looks good, and changes as well depending on how and where you hit them. The game itself plays really well the fighting system at first seems really complicated with you have to hold down shoulder buttons while you use the control sticks to throw punches ...  Read the complete review

Fight Night Round 4 promised massive improvements from Round 3, but unlike a lot of EA's sequels this wasn't going to be graphical changes, it was going to be the game engine itself that would be changed to make each punch unique in how it lands, the effect it has and the force it lands with. This was, according to EA, the closest thing to actual boxing you could get on a console, this was going to be about thinking yourself to a win and not just throwing wild punches. On first play, compared to Fight night 3 this is a step back, you find yourself standing on the spot throwing 200 punches a round, but happily as you go through the much improved ...  Read the complete review

Fight Night Round 3 Format: Xbox 360 Genre: Sports --- So what's it all about? --- Fight Night Round 3 was one of the early titles for the Xbox 360 having been released back in February 2006.

There is an exhibition mode which let you choose your fighter, opponent, and venue ...  Read the complete review

While the 360 has plenty of sports games on the market, it really depends what kind of sports you're looking for. There are plenty of Football games, whether it is Pro Evolution or FIFA, a decent amount of golfing simulators (mostly Tiger Woods) and other sports like American Football and Tennis. But, along with Rugby and Cricket, Boxing games don't make a whole lot of appearances on Microsoft's console. So, it's good then that the boxing games that do appear on the 360 are great ones, at least if Fight Night Round 3 is any indication. With excellent boxing gameplay, stunning graphics, intuitive controls and great multiplayer, Round 3 is a winner. -(The ...  Read the complete review
