No problem. Other than the disconnects from EA Servers, the PS3 version ran fine without any noticeable issues.

I didn't check, but is there a tutorial or listing of the controls? I need to get UFC out of my mind when playing this. LOL!

The MMA 101 is a tutorial

We definitely need a better tutorial. I'm getting the sprawl, and the grounded the basic striking. But I'm lost on parries, I'm lost on advanced striking. I can win, but I feel there are more tools in this game that we have no clue how to use because the tutorial is so bare.

Parries are so useful off your back. When you parry punches it drains their stamina so you can parry 3 or 4 strikes and then succeed in kicking them off.

To parry, hold RT, then flick the right stick left or right. You want to flick the stick AWAY from the strike.

Ex. If they are raining down shots from your guard and throwing alot of right hands(left side of your face). You want to flick the stick to YOUR right. AWAY from the strike. You flick it right after they throw the punch. You have a good bit of time to parry.

Looks like you played too much Street Fighter 4 bro.

This looks like Frye vs the Japanesse dude...usually in a MMA fight you don't spam punch after punch after punch... But oh well go play UFC, dominate the fuight and get flash Ko by a stupid Jab.
