Wow, the story mode is great.

One thing please - when doing the heavy bag whats the blue box mean when a command flashes up?

The blue boxes relate to the left stick movements, such as a quick step upwards, or a semi circle weave.

Best game on the 360

I made it to 70th in the UK at middleweight the other night. Although i've probably slipped in the ranking due to a days inactivity

Would love to fight for the UK title at some point.

Hows the online still a boring spam fest like fnr4 ?

So no one here getting random freezes? Its a hot topic on the EA forums and something seriously annoying me. I cant continue Legacy mode until they fix it as it always freezes there. I play on-line but cant rank up my fighter, no gyms let me in I created one and no one has joined. My gym is called Kae Owe if anyones interested, we can spar and get more XP

Is this worth getting if you already have fight night 4?

I installed the game to the HDD first and the performance was pretty shoddy. I removed it and just ran it from the disk, much better.

How is this game guys? Should be arriving on rental tomorrow, however I haven't played any of the other Fight Nights before so I'm going to have to get into this one.

Hopefully the controls aren't to fiddly!

Online is broke, single player has 5 hours in it...2 player is the only reason I kept it

I'm loving this game, story mode was better than I expected and I'm making my way through legacy mode right now I'm the No.10 ranked WW in the world hopefully get a title shot soon =)

Drake5 · 14 Apr 2011 at 19:24

I'm really enjoying this so far. I'm playing on amateur though as I've never played a FN before.

Drake5 · 14 Apr 2011 at 21:47

any tips please for the fight against frost? You have to go through the first 2 rounds and I'm blocking but he just always seems to get through and KO me. Getting frustrated now!

EDIT - Got past that bit now I need to knock him out with body shots. failing so bad!

dont bother punching in the first two round, just run and block.

then you have 3 rounds to land those body punches, but dont trade with him because he will knock you out.

then you get cut, so keep running.

then you can fight him normally in round 8. try and grind him down with stick and move tactics and quick combinations, as always dont trade with him, although he is less powerful now. but you will have to ko him because you wont win on the score cards

if all fails, turn the difficulty down to as easy as possible.

I'm on the easiest difficulty and it's still hard!

A bit pathetic that you can't just get in the ring and box though. :confused:

yeah i know, but the story mode was like misson mode at the end.

and on easy mode, you can win by constantly throw bombs

, but watch out for the stamina of course

Drunzer · 15 Apr 2011 at 09:55

If he knocks you down in either of the first two rounds, I would just go ahead and start the fight over. I always found he seems to knock you down atleast twice in the body shot rounds and maybe once when you're cut, once you're knocked down 3 times it's pretty tough getting up on the 4th and if you're allowed the 5th also.

Anyone play this online? I picked it up yesterday out of boredom. I tried the likes of Ali, Frasier, Foreman before settling on Tyson and with him I can comfortably knock most of my online opponents out. It's great when you come up against someone clueless who just keeps trying to throw bombs and nothing else.

Anybody still play this?
