Thread: New Boxing Game coming in NOV!!!!!!!!

http://www.gamespot.com/news/6145558.html

Sweet.
No matter how good or bad this game will be, there's no doubt this'll force EA to up the ante on their future games as they're no longer holding the boxing market exclusively.
Great news!

Thats suicide.

We all know Fight Night is suprior to anygame out there, and if they use the stick controls they would be called copiers, and if they dont, the game would be a crappy button bash.

i cant get to that site rite now. . tell me the name of the game . cut and paste the info please

Fight night is the king yes. . because there are no other contenders at all. .

if this new game can add more elements tha Ea is not producing than it can win

And lets face it. . the game controller has sticks and bottons. no many more ways to be able to use defense or offense now is there?? i remember that there was a title being made by climax in the UK called TITLE DEFENSE but is was canned and the screens for the fighters were off the freaking chain!! finally someone challenges EA. in my opinion. . EA dropped the ball with fnr3(xbox) like i said before. . the punching realism is great but everything else has lacked badly.

when i get the 360 and play that version i will see how great it is besdies the graphics. . . the grapkics are not even half the game. Victorious boxers for ps2 the game play was better than EA KOK until FN 2004!! EA NEEDS TO ADD MORE STYLES LIKE THE PEEK A BOO THAT IS NOT IN THE GAME

FROM GAMESPOT NEWS!!
2K Sports reveals upcoming lineup
In addition to NBA, MLB, NHL, snowboarding, and tennis (both standard and table varieties), the Take-Two subsidiary is stepping into the boxing ring.
Take-Two Interactive today held a conference call with analysts and investors to disclose the company's Q1 fiscal results, which ended January 31, 2006. Although the numbers were bad news for the company (a $29.1-million-dollar loss, compared to $55.2 million in profit from the same period before), news of the company's future plans looks great for sports fans.

Even though Take-Two baffled many by announcing a next-gen table tennis game this week, it should come to no one's surprise that the company already has plans to continue its long-running 2K Sports franchises. NBA 2K7, NHL 2K7, and College Hoops 2K7 are already in the works and are all expected to be released in 2006.

2K Sports has already shown that it's not content to use its exclusive third-party rights to Major League Baseball to release just one baseball game per year. Last year, the publisher released a standard version of its annual MLB 2K game, as well as a World Series Edition, which added various features and bonuses centered on the Fall Classic, later in the year.

It appears that 2K Sports may do something similar in 2006, though it isn't clear how. While the company named the specific titles of its forthcoming NBA, NHL, and college basketball games in its earnings report, it chose a different path for its baseball games, merely stating "additional products based on the Major League Baseball license."

So what could these additional products be? Though history states that another World Series spin-off is likely, it could very well be something entirely different. The MLB-rights agreement clearly states that 2K can, in addition to simulation-style games, make arcade, strategy, and management MLB-branded games.

2K Sports is also promising more tennis and snowboarding games in its fiscal 2007, which will likely be further editions of the Top Spin and Amped franchsies, respectively. One sport that 2K is venturing into for the first time is boxing. Though no details were given, the game is scheduled for the company's 2007 fiscal year, which begins in November 2006, meaning that Electronic Arts' Fight Night series may have a title contender by this Christmas.

For more information on the company's recent-past and future, read GameSpot's coverage of Take-Two Interactive's earnings call.


YES!!! I KNOW THAT THE XBOX ONLY HAS SO MUCH POWER AND IT WONT LOOK AS GOOD AS 360 BUT THE CAN LOOK GOOD AND STILL HAVE BOXING REALISM!!! I KNOW IT CAN.
THEY SHOULD DO AWAY WITH THE HAYMAKER - THIS IS NOT TOUGHMAN-
MAKE IT HARDER TO JUST KNOCK OUT SOMEONE. MAKE US LEARN TO PACE OURSELVES. MAKE US BOX AND NOT JUST TOUGHMAN FIGHT.
MAYBE EARLY IN CAREER MODE WE CAN FINISH FIGHTS EARLY LIKE WITHIN 4 ROUNDS. BUT AS WE GAIN RANKING. . IT SHOULD TAKE US LONGER TO KNOCK OUT SOMEONE BUT SHOULD OR COULD GO THE DISTANCE!! I WANT TO BE A TESTER OF THE GAME!! I WILL BE VERY CRITICAL AND I WANT TO REALLY HELP THEM IN TESTING THE GAME!! I WOULD SWEAR TO SECRECY!! REF IN THE RING YES!!(360) XBOX I DONT THINK CAN HANDLE THE REF IN THE RING.
TRULY IN DEPTH CAREER .. LET US SELECT 3 MINI GAMES TO TRAIN THE FIGHTER FOR THE NEXT MATCH, HAVE DIET INCORPERATED IN TRAINING AND HE SHOULD ONLY GET FAT IF WE TRAIN POOR OR FEED HIM TO MUCH. I KNEW MICROSOFT COULD DO THIS WITH NO PROBLEM

FUCK YES! YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCHEAAAAA!! 2K!!!!!

That's about as funny as a one legged man in a ass kicking contest.

that would actually be quite funny though

i doubt they can use the total punch controll, which is the reason i like FN more then any other game ever, but i hope it effects fight nights sales so EA goes out and purchases a better roster

No shat

Yeah the roster of fighters is weak, EA seems to lose fighters each year instead of adding more. Hopefully 2K SPORTS will use real fighters.
