Still going through some growing pains in terms of gameplay, EA Sports UFC 3 is definitely a contender, but not the prize fighting game we've been waiting for.
PROS
Spot-on presentation; Well detailed fighters; Licensed roster of fighters
CONS
Certain fighting mechanics still need work
VERDICT
The EA Sports UFC franchise has come a long way in a very short period of time. There are, however, a few niggling elements to UFC 3, and in terms of in the ring gameplay, a bit more fine tuning is needed. That said, for MMA fans, there is still a fair amount of gaming to enjoy, and given its licensing agreement with Ultimate Fighting Championship, it means that this title is the still the go-to MMA game for now.
