A couple of maps for Halo will cost more than 10 bucks. anyway, im stoked about all of the boxers in the pack, but especially the K bros. They will round out FN's heavyweight roster very nicely.

agreed

$10 is a lot for 3 new and 2 "alternate" boxers. At least give us 5 complete new ones. An make sure one of them is the Burger king boxer again

It is hard to get these licensed boxers to sign because of money and promoters and previous contractual licenses, etc. Boxershare will affect sales. If they released a 10-boxer pack for same price with lesser known contenders or lesser known past greats, they would have to be either really accurate in their looks or all would have to be good enough to be rated 87 or higher, for it to sell.

Those 4 boxers, with the possible exception of old Foreman, should rate above an 86. I would say younger Toney an 87 or 88, Klitschkos between 88-90, and Oscar 88-91 as well. In his prime Toney was a master who I remember only losing to RJJR and B Hop by decisions. Oscar is #12 all-time in Boxrec's All-time P4P list - way overrated, but you look at his resume and there are a lot of big names in it. If he's a welter, a 90 is deserved. Vitali can be rated around Lennox Lewis' range, and Vlad a point or two below him.

I could name a dozen fighters that would be 87+ that I'd rather see over another version of Toney. Frankly, if they released a 10-pack of lesser known fighters, I'd be all over it. I want more current, active boxers. The CAB share is fine, but it's just not the same, especially since CABs can't have tatoos or anything like that.

It looks like EA did the right thing...they dropped the price to 480 points/$5.99 for DLC pack 1...that's not too bad...better than $10!

That's much more in-line.

EA offers Rock Band tracks for 160 points each or 440 points for a pack of 3. 3 new boxers plus 2 alternate versions is worth about that - 120 points per new boxer and 60 per alternate version.

My whole hang up is the K Bros could be done with a CAB easily if they aren't mocapped, especially with 87 ratings. I agree for the most part except Vitali has a better chin than they give him credit for.

They need to get Juan Manual Marquez and Paul Williams in the game, and they REALLY need more fighters in the lowest 2 or 3 weight classes.
