use kinect and its day 1 for me

Shazz4915d ago

it would be great for kinect and move but i think it may be too fast paced for both of the motion controls tbh coz fn4 was super fast for crazy combos, hopefully they will support the motion controllers though

Lou-Cipher4915d ago

If we learned anything, its that fighting games wont work with current motion/camera tech. It just isn't there yet.

A fighting/punching game needs absolute accuracy with zero lag, and we all have seen how much lag Kinect has. Even Move isnt fast enough to detect a powerful/fast combo of punches.

"Throw 25 punches in 15 seconds, landing more than 50% of them"

Silver trophy in Fights Light out. Move can handle it.

rockleex4914d ago

10 punches in 1 second.

You can NOT do that in Fight Night.

That's 1 punch per 100 milliseconds.

PS Move's response time is 22 milliseconds. MUCH less than what is required to throw 10 punches per second.

Then you gotta consider that you can't even throw 10 punches per second in Fight Night and it becomes obvious PS Move can definitely handle it.

Rage_S904914d ago

you must be smoking the good sh*t please try trowing 10 punches in 1 second no really please try it

Skullomania4914d ago (Edited 4914d ago )

10 punches in 1 second?? XD

dredgewalker4914d ago

@Rockleex

I'm a little bit dubious on that one though Bruce Lee is said to done 7 punches in 1 second. I can't really say it can't be done cause I'm seeing a lot of things today that was impossible in the past.

BISHOP-BRASIL4914d ago

The biggest problem with Kinect/Move versions would be legwork.

Fight Night is no arcadey punch out, it's almost a boxe simulator, standing still pushing the air wouldn't do it any good... For sure current motion tech can detect you leaning or maybe even sidestepping, but it wouldn't see if your are balanced while punching or not, so it can't know how strog is your shots, as well as it's not a good system for KOs, as the game could understand many moments as open to fall while you are actually well balanced or you can fall if hitted unbalanced but should not necessarily get knocked out if you hadn't been much hitted before.

In a simples way to say, it would take away the connected chain element that rule the boxe and that they so brilliantly implemented in the game.

For sure it's possible to make it for move using buttons to walk/dodge (and probably kinect too with some gesture based movement) but it would take away from the boxe feel I belive FN tends to persue.

PS: To the guy who said 10 punches in 1 second... A pro boxer, really fast, in training, can shot like 6 or 7 punches in a second, but most wouldn't try it in a fight as this is too much time open guarded. I say 4 or 5 punches per second tracking capacity is more than enough to what most of us, non-pro fighters, can do... Just remember it's supposed to track people trying to achieve 4 or 5 real punches in one second, with the correct leg and torso technique, not 10 nerdy hand flaps in the air in one second.

did you see the reviews for Fighters Uncaged?

it would be way better with Move, but even better with a regular fucking controller

jack who4914d ago

i love how you guys are disagreeing and using rushed game from an unknown developer.as your excuse i for one dont like using the controller to play fight night games but now we have other choice to play the game with.

TheHip144915d ago

I heard it's not using Kinect, which would suck

Quagmire4915d ago

That video was EPIC!

"He's a friggin ANIMAL!"

I love how theyre integrating a story into it reminscint of the rocky films. Looks seriously awesome. Im intrigued, and I loved FNR4.

DAY FRIGGIN ONE!

INFECTED5034915d ago

You wouldn't want this to use Kinect! But M rated eh? Can't wait

NYC_Gamer4915d ago

Fight Night Round 5: We Want A New Fight Night Game

It’s been almost a decade since the critically acclaimed Fight Night Champion, the final title in a series of beloved boxing video games from Electronic Arts. Since 2011, the studio has been focused on its mixed martial arts title, UFC, instead. But with the rise of the popularity of boxing again, thanks to fighters like Floyd Mayweather and Tyson Fury, could we possibly have another Fight Night game on the way?

I honestly cannot state enough just how much i want a new fight night!!!

Boxing is one of my fav sports to watch and it has been way to long since iv had a game to enjoy.

Undisputed looks like a ps3 game, cmon EA, stuff UFC, give the people what we really want which is a boxing game!!!

cnote00446d ago

I agree we need another fight night, however undisputed, I’d have to part ways with that ps3 claim.

Petebloodyonion446d ago

IT'SSSSSSSS FIIIIIIGHT NIIIIIIGHT!!!!
I hope they make it like round four instead of champions but ill take any fight night at this point

Dabigsiebowski446d ago

They need to go back to the good roots of FN R2 and FN R3. Everything after watered down the formula too much and enabled gimmicks. FNR2&3 are some of the greatest fighting games ever.

Kurt Russell446d ago

3 was fun and you could smash out so many haymakers. But I found 4 more technical and enjoyed it for that too.

navi87446d ago

At least in 3 you had to wind up your shots, it was more skill based as opposed to 4 where you just held down L1 or R1 whilst flicking the analogue stick.

navi87446d ago

Agreed, i played FNR 3 the most on Xbox 360 back in the day and using the analogue sticks to kinda mimic punches thrown was fun af. FNR 4 ruined it by just flicking the analogue stick to throw hooks, felt really unintuitive after the previous games.

isarai446d ago

They'd ruin it like they do everything these days

10 Best Forgotten Sports Game Franchises That Should Come Back

From Xfire: "Sports games are the average Joe's best chance at getting to play under the big bright lights with thousands of people in the stands watching their every move. It doesn't matter if you're a hoops junkie or a baseball fan, sports video games let you live out your hopes and dreams."

In the words of the great Stone Cold Steve Austin Ooooh Hell Yeeeeah!!! lol. Also it would be sweet if EA gave us a new Def Jam Fighting game with a roster of Rappers that's unheard of. Biggie.Pun.Pac.Jam Master Jay.Eminem.JayZ.Eazy E.MGK.Naz. and over 60 of the best rappers ever past and present. One can only hope.

Deebo_slice1368d ago

Hell, I will take remaster of Champion. PLEASE!
