Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson cover Fight Night Round 4

If i'm not mistaken... iron Mike will eat your chiiiiillldren!

Check out Mike Tyson's craziest moments on YouTube... IT SHOULD NOT BE MISSED. Hilarious stuff.

The whole "ear-biting" thing, probably.

I thought it was because he beat the shit out of Robin Givens

Who can get excited for this game with the new Punch Out! coming soon?

I think his (and Don King's) salary demands were insane back at Tyson's peak. Then after his rape conviction, he was pretty much radioactive as a celebrity endorser. His career since being released from prison has not lived up to his early dominance and promise. I think only now that he seems to have given up on boxing for good can nostalgia start to grow for his younger days.

There was a Mike Tyson Boxing for the PS2 several years ago, but good luck finding three people that bought it.

Cody: Plenty of people, since the Fight Night series has been outstanding since the original installment, and Punch-Out looks like another Nintendo nostalgia cash-in that'll likely have terrible Wiimote control, by the.

...don't know where those last two words came from. Oh well.

I highly doubt it was for his conduct.

Madden had Ray Lewis on the cover, and he was charged with murder.

Granted, he didn't commit the crime, but he was willing to go to jail for 4 months to make sure his friend wasn't caught.

he had a deal for his own games still in place so under contract he couldn't be in a EA game. like jordan was never in NBA games

Cody, asking that is like asking "who could be excited for Forza 3 when we already have Mario Kart Wii?" They're not really trying to be the same game, by far

Not limiting, just giving to them early. It makes sense if you sort of squint at it, like a magic eye puzzle.

Yea, it's not a good idea. Why would you let people who want it so bad they preorder a chance to "try" the game? Oh well, I'll just wait (let many I'm sure) till there's a public demo, which will probably hurt day 1 sales.

So you think people shouldn't play demos of games they know they are going to buy? Will waiting until launch day to play a demo really delay your purchase by any noticeable amount of time? What does "let many I'm sure" mean?

Sorry, your post just filled me with questions. Enjoy the game.

It is entirely possible to pre-order with Gamestop, get your early demo access key, and then go switch your pre-order to something else. At least, this is something I have done in the past at my local brick and mortar shop.

I think it is stupid too. Why would I need a demo if I preordered, but at gamestop you can put $5 down, get the demo, and then get your money back if you don't buy it when it comes out. That is why I have $60 back in my pocket and no Killzone2.

Sorry I'll make sure to proofread this comment. What I meant to say was the point of demos are to get people interested in the game that were maybe on the fence about. If you dont give everyone early access to the demo, the people on the fence may not buy it right away, or even forget about the game. "Let many" was supposed to be "like many".

Your missing out on something special man ... KZ2 is one of the most epic games on the platform and belongs in the pantheon of 10 best shooters of all time.

Agreed.

And to others who replied, it's not about NOT wanting to demo the game, it's about allowing GS to control who gets early (or total?) access to the demo.

It boggles my mind why developers and publishers bitch and moan about how GS is killing their profits by selling used copies that they see not a penny of, yet they gladly partner with GS to offer early demos and other types of game DL and swag, just for early pre-orders.

First, demos can be had from PSN and XBL so right there, you don't need GS. And as a paying Gold XBL subscriber, I would think that was plenty enough for me to have access to demos when they are released. I realize this may have nothing to do with MS, but rather the developer, but at some level, Sony and MS may want to put some pressure on EA or others to dissuade them from these kinds of deals. Second, they don't need GS as a retail channel. You have plenty of retail channels just with Target, Walmart, and Best Buy. It would not hurt their bottom line to just kill off GS as a retail partner. They could simply offer the same swag and early demo deals to other retail partners that AREN'T cannibalizing their sales by selling used copies.

I can only guess that with the cash GS has amassed, it's too tempting to pass up some cash payment from GS in exchange for an exclusive demo that GS can offer. Its all about generating foot traffic for GS.

"There will be plenty of butterfly floating and bee stinging in the ring this summer, as EA announced that Muhammad Ali will be one of two cover athletes for Fight Night Round 4."

did you just skip first sentence??

yes. It's monday after daylights savings, give me a break.

lol.....whats daylight savings time have to do with it??? lol

yesterday is usally the roughest day for adjustment. lol

Don't worry Dom - I'm with ya. Getting to work this morning was a pain.

i just woke up from a nice nap from my desk. cot damn mondays after daylight savings time..

"For this fight, I’ve wrestled with alligators,
I’ve tustled with a whale.
I done handcuffed lightning
And put thunder in jail.
You know I’m bad.
I have murdered a rock,
I’ve injured a stone, and hospitalized a brick.
I’m so bad, I make medicine sick.
I’m so fast, man,
I can run through a hurricane and don't get wet.
When George Foreman meets me,
He’ll pay his debt.
I can drown the drink of water, and kill a dead tree.
Wait till you see Muhammad Ali."

"Lennox [Lewis] is a conqueror? No. I'm Alexander, he's no Alexander. I'm the best ever. There's never been anybody as ruthless. I'm Sonny Liston. I'm Jack Dempsey, there's no one like me - I'm from their cloth. There's no one that can match me. My style is impetuous. My defense is impregnable, and I'm just ferocious. I want your heart. I want to eat his children."

If the game doesn't include any interview segments with Ali and Tyson, they are wasting the license.

The demo will still be released either on the day of release of prior to the release. A pre-order simply gives early access to the game.

Word up dawg! Fo' shizzle, bizzle off they fay-sizzle! Yo yo yo yo yo!

Question: why is it that white guys always think its funny to say stupid shit that they think would be cool to say...
But they dont think its cool that when they say this stupid type of shit.. and its over heard by other NON white ppl.. and they get their ass handed to them on a plate w sweet n sour sauce?

Listen.. DICK... your no funny.. nor cool... you sound like a friggin moron. Stick to video games in your Mommas basement...schmuck!

I find it amusing that you choose to call me a moron during the conclusion of what has to be one of the most ineffective attempts at communication in recent history. I sincerely hope that English is your second language because you can't even express your anger in a coherent manner using the language. You should be ashamed of the garbage that you just typed.

er...what I meant to say was...

Yo yo yoyoyoyoyo...don't be dissin' me like that dawg. Why you gotta be hatin'? I didn't call you no names or nothin' like that son-son! You need to ease up and slow your roll kid. I was only playin' man. You ain't gotta get all 730 and bust a cap in my ass or nothin.

You both have appropriate names.

Antagonist, your shitty out-of-date quasi-hip-hop vernacular is a real eye-roller. I'd have to vote you off the island. Sorry.

@ill trooper

Yo that is whack homes!

Shut up. Thanks.

Matthew,

He paid his debt to society so who are you to say he shouldn't be able to make a living because of something he did in his past? Once the man did his jail time for the incident it shouldn't hinder him from employment or making money.

Tyson is the only reason why I'm getting this game, 2pac is also convicted rapist but he's still the greatest rapper and know one gives a fuck about his past.

I disagree that the gameplay was spot-on in the previous iterations. It was fun, don't get me wrong, but it wasn't boxing. It was just "who can get the most haymakers on the other person first" and "don't punch first because then they'll parry and you'll be wide open for two seconds".

From what I understand, this is looking to be more like actual boxing than those games were.

more like got it all, lost it all.
