My guy at Gamestop said I could trade it straight across for another game/store credit so I think I am gonna take it and either get Fable 3 or save the credit. My 7 year old wants a DS for X-mas so I might do apply the credit to that.

Trading towards the DS would be a good idea.

I just picked this up on the 360...

I kept getting chased and stuffed on takedown attempts, and remembered seeing someone post on here about a mobility kill. I had to take that, and went 4/4 on remaining takedowns and finished him off with a kneebar.

I'm 10-0 in career, but I'm still not very good at the game. Having a blast learning my way around it though.

*edit: 11-0, time to get another belt. I fought my contender fight against a guy specializing in jiu-jitsu. It took a while, and after getting whomped I was able to pull out an Omoplata and snatch a win.

I'm having a blast with EAMMA (360). Just started with "Paul Bell", my CAF, a heavyweight. In my second fight, I had a computer foe who was 6'8" and made him submit with 5 seconds left in the first round. That was sweet. And the fighter share is being utilized quite nicely by me.

Still haven't gotten any leg submissions yet, only the arm. Is a patch going to address that?

Hope the rumors aren't true that this is one game and done. Maybe EA can negotiate with some of the Japanese MMA organizations like Pancrase, DEEP, Shooto, Sengoku and, of course, Dream. Maybe hook up with HDNet as a sponsor of the next game. HDNet crushes Spike, IMO, for the best place for MMA coverage. Thanks, EA for a deeply enjoyable game.

Body shots and legs kicks really wear them down.

Patch what? Leg submissions? I have won by leg submission so I am not sure what your issue seems to be.

Looks like the OS hype machine pulled me in again, lol. After some more time with the game I can definitely say that it's better than the UFC, but is it a true MMA simulation? I dunno yet. With the right patch the game can easily be a 9/10 or better, but as is I don't see how it's anything more than a slug fest. Stamina in the standup game is irrelevant, you don't have to pick your shots, and the striking mechanics could have been more realistic, they feel a bit gamey to me.

No sports game will ever be a true simulation. It's just impossible.

We can just hope they go for a realistic approach that's fun.

For me, EA's done that.
