I'm new to the Fight Night series of games and I'm not a very serious follower of boxing in general. However, I thought a boxing game would be fun to play and the game's trailer encouraged me to go ahead and purchase Fight Night Champion.
The Good:
1Champion mode was very fun to play and the story line was pretty cool especially the part in prison.
2The graphics, visual effects, soundtracks, and sound effects are very good.
3The wide range of boxers to choose from and the fact that each has his own style which is very much noticeable in gameplay.
The Bad:
1Online play was a bit of a disappointment. Gameplay is slower in online matches than offline ones and there seems to be a slight lag in the punching and maneuvering.
2Champion mode is exciting to play, but it's a bit short. I finished the whole thing in like 4 days (around 2-3 hours per day).
The Ugly:
1well, nothing really... i just felt something would be missing from the review if i didn't add this last header :)
Overall i think it's a great game, and maybe the online thing has something to do with my internet connection which isn't too fast in the first place (however football/soccer games work perfectly fine for example)
Go ahead and buy it if you have the slightest interest in boxing or feel that a boxing game would be fun to play.

I will say this upfront,I am giving this game a 3 out of 5 for one reason ONE PUNCH KNOCKOUTS!Pros:
Amazing looking game
Control scheme is differant but it works (Great for old pros and newbies alike)
Champion Mode was great!
Legacy Mode may be the most we seen from the Franchise yet
Cons:
One Punch Knockout!! (Really?.....Really?)
Multiplayer is over powered with the ability to buy perks and xp
Multiplayer is still a little "buggy" (more an annoyance than an issue)
ONE PUNCH KNOCKOUTS!!!!! (Are you serious EA thats what you are bringing to the table?)
Allow me to explain why One-Hit KO's warranted being listed twice. So I am fighting this kid, right, and I have dominated him for 7 rounds, knocked him down twice, avoided big shot, went to the body and wore him out all together. Ding! Eighth round starts I go in for more of the same, the kid can only throw one punch before hes too tired to swing, I decide I have tired of it and want to just finish this match here. I move in for the win, he throws a Right Hook that catches me and "flash" KO's me. REALLY!!!??????? SERIOUSLY!!??? Turns out this kid bought an XP packand leveled his Right Hook all the way. Is this fair? NO! I understand the online pass thing , and frankly I can live with it. I understand its a buisness and they need to protect an income flow, however I feel like EA cheapened thier own multiplayer experience by allowing player to seriously overlevel thier boxers from the get go.
Well now thats out of the way, the game is actually really fun. Champion Mode grabs hold and doesnt let go. The story of Andre Bishops Rise, Fall, and Vengence is truly a masterpiece. Legacy Mode will keep you busy for days. Custimzation options fo ryour fighter are through the roof. This game is visually stunning. This game is a ton of fun, I am not regretting this purchase for a second.
This Game is a definite step in the right direction, just be advised although the thought of winning a World Chamionship with a created boxer sounds very appealing, beware of the right hook!! If you can live with that, This game is buyable, heck id say its buyable on the single-player alone.
Thank you for reading, I hope this helps!

The story mode was great. (:It's so much fun, I wish it would've been longer though, and theres no Floyd Mayweather in the gameplay.. But, overall fun game to play by yourself and with challenging friends.
