The fight is on

By tangoman1984 (ciao.co.uk) Read the full review

Fight Night Round 3 is a truly amazing experience (I would call it a game but it is one of those games where you play and you get truly drawn in). I originally played this against computer opponents and was truly blown away by the presentation,...

Amazing graphics and audio, superb gameplay, stunning presentation and replays, great roster

Get in the ring

Stunning graphics, gameplay, ring girls

We didn't expect much from Fight Night Round 3 based on previous boxing titles, but this is refreshing and very playable

Dragon Age II (PC, Mac, Xbox 360, PS3) review

By Sean Bell (darkzero.co.uk)

Dragon Age: Origins was pretty great, so you can imagine how ridiculously pumped I've been about the arrival of?Dragon Age II. After all, if a BioWare game has issues, it's usually safe to assume they'll be gone when the inevitable sequel turns up....

Dragon Age II isn't a bad game, but it is a huge disappointment from such a respected and otherwise consistent developer. While the combat has been improved significantly, its failings in other areas - areas in which BioWare usually excel - are...

we went from a dodgy shooter with a crap frame-rate to something that felt more like a special version of Gears of War where you actually cared about anything that was going on.

Fight Night Round 3 PS3 Review

By Chris Wigham (consoleob.com)

Two combatants trading punches until one falls over whilst the crowd cries out for their blood, yes boxing is a funny old sport that is as strategic as it is barbaric. It's obvious that leather gloves and collapsing faces make for some great gaming...

Fight Night Round 3 is a brilliant boxing simulator that plays just as good as it looks, and with little actual competition to speak of and such well tuned gameplay, this will probably be the best boxing game on the market for quite some time.

Fight Night Round 3 PS3

By Matt (ultraninjas.com)

If ever there was a more sensible move than getting PS3 punch-‘em-in-the-face-‘em-up Fight Night Round 3 a week before our office Christmas break, I'd love to know what it was. Aside from offering some pretty epic – and exhausting – multiplayer larks,...

Anything that stops festive office fisticuffs is worth every pound you could possibly pay, although I’m sure other folk around here would possibly disagree.

Fight Night Round 3 Review

By (psu.com)

Electronic Arts' Fight Night series has always garnered high acclaim from reviewers and players alike for its high-speed gameplay and impressive graphics. When Fight Night Round 3 was displayed at Sony's E3 2005 Press Conference, EA promised this...

A nearly perfected fighting formula along with fantastic multiplayer that truly packs a punch ; The fighters, arenas, and the blood, sweat and lighting effects all look top-notch

Fight Night Round 3 has a terrible single-player mode dominated by long loading times ; Lag and unreliable servers can be an issue online

Fight Night Round 3 has its faults, but as an entire package is a fantastic game.

Fight Night Round 3 (PS3) review

By NowGamer ArchiveBot (nowgamer.com)

Award: Multiplayer Award

What a difference good textures can make

Let’s hear it for nice graphics. For sure the only major difference between this and the PlayStation 2 version is the texture quality. It has a much bigger impact than you might think as well, making it well worth upgrading to the next-gen.

Fight Night Round 3

By PSW Staff (computerandvideogames.com)

Quite simply, it's a knockout, 'Arry.

The boxers look amazing ; Gruesome In The Ring mode ; Rewarding control scheme

Basic Career mode set-up

Round 3 can count itself the undisputed champion of boxing games - and just check out the visuals.

Fight Night: Round 3

By BaXpAcE (dashhacks.com)

Sound the bell folks, Fight Night is back for round 3 and somebody's gonna get a hurt! Check out our pulverizing, mesmerizing, kick asstizing review of Fight Night: Round 3

Fight Night: Round 3 is a gorgeous next generation title that will have you drooling over the graphics (and possibly the ring girls). The single player career mode is a little easy and is lacking depth and a real challenge. This game does however shine...

Check out Fight Night: Round 3 if you want one of the best sports games available for the XBOX 360.
