As much as I hate and despise EA, I think the demo is awesome and I look forward to seeing the full game. Sad that its so far off atm.

I just love slow paced beat em ups like boxing/wrestling stuff. Games like
SF2/Mortal kombat etc where you pull out 50 moves in a second are too boring for me nowadays. FN is pretty classy stuff and I'm having a ball.
 
Yer, I've replayed the same fight well over 10+ times so far since I got home lol. Getting used to the controls very quick.
 
My best is 3 ko's (knock downs even!) in round 1 :p Been playing it non-stop since 6pm lol. Wish there was a difficulty setting though.

Just played as Roy Jones but it's too hard, the guy is a total wimp :p The speed of the punches is pretty decent to me, you need to hang back and wait for an opening and then send in a flurry of left/right hooks if possible. My best is a full KO by round 2.

Does the other boxer learn your fighting style ? It seems a bit like that to me. I could beat Jones easily with Hopkins until recently and now it takes a real effort to beat him. Pretty cool if its got some sort of adaptive AI.
Yer, when you quit/start the game, theres a splash screen stating some of the features. It has adaptive AI, think the demo has too i'm sure since I've been playing it non stop since it came out.
 
I can't even understand how the right stick combo's are executed. Right now i'm just using the buttons for left/right/uppercut combos.

Apparently one of the best looking xbox 360 games about to play and we have 1 screenshot of the damn default controls... :mad: ;)
lol, gimme 30mins. I'm not too good at getting good shots though...
 
They're proper ingame shots. The game switches to slow-mo mode as you enter a phase where you've just punished your opponent and can finish him off for a knock down. Thats where I grabbed the cam and took the shots from close up.

Looks so lifelike on VGA, and stupidly lifelike on a 42" plasma at me mates.
 
I am dying for this game to arrive, yet Feb seems so far away :( Can't stop playing it and 2 player is just ridiculous fun right now, it even ended up in a mass argument yesterday when I had some mates round. Apparently one of the controllers de-synch'd with the 360 and stopped working, so the other chap took advantage of the idle boxer in the ring and rained punches on him :p
 
FYI peeps, using Config 3, pressing X & A or Y & B produces a left/right uppercut. Not sure if it's been mentioned here yet. Wish this would come out soon :(
