Well i just had my first online experience and got knocked out 3 times - all by guys just hurling power punch after power punch.

I landed more but not the power ones. I thought the non stop punching was a no no in this game.

Yes its a new game and I hope its a grower but so far I hate it ! (and thats not just cos I lost)

Every fight seems like Hagler v Hearns which ok thats fair enough but the tactical side seems missing so far.

and the blocking seems shit - still can't get used to letting go of right stick on new game and just using R1. Keep throwing punches when I don't mean to


Ah well - will try again tomorrow....
