I recently purchased UFC 2009 for Playstation 3 at the suggestion of wagunz_pwn (from here on out referred to as LJ - Little Jew). For several days, we played the demo against each other, mainly kicking and punching and enjoyed it. Then, on release day, LJ went and bought the full version of the game. When I asked him if it was any good, he suggested I buy the full version, so I took him up on his suggestion. I do not in any way regret it. Once you learn more than just punching and kicking, and can actually get your opponent down on the ground, and use the many different grappling techniques and submissions, the game just gets better and better. Anyways, the point of this thread was not really a review of the game so much as trying to set up a league for online fighting with members here. LJ and I decided to set up Middleweight fighters to fight each other online. If anyone wants to join in post your Playstation Online Username here. I was thinking of having a weekly fight night where we can all meet online and fight it out.Once we have a list of available fighters to participate, we can set up a random rotation, or we can do a tournament style battle to see who is the best. So for now, post up if you have UFC 2009 for PS3 with your PS3 Screen name and lets see who can and will fight. Guess I should add my Screen name: STiHunter
i may be able to purchase this in the near future. Can you spectate while friends are fighting? Name is ilovebeingadad PS - Jason you have had a pending friend invite from me for about 4 months
One more thing...We don't use the UFC fighters. We intend to fight with the middleweight fighter that we created in career mode. This way...you actually have to work and train at getting better. The more you time you spend playing in career mode, the better you will be at online.
i have to find out what my online name is then i'll post up but i'm down for this. i need to start a new career since my guy is at 205.
If you are going to start a new guy, I would suggest Middleweight. I am sure we will eventually expand (I have a Lightweight fighter ready to go). LJ and I both created new fighters because he had a Welterweight, and I had the Lightweight, so we couldn't fight each other. We both started new fighters so we wouldn't have an unfair advantage from several extra days of gameplay. Well I guess you know where you stand in my life. j/k, never realized I had the invite. I will accept you as a friend I guess.
yea i'm going to make one at 185 so we can all fight each other. my friend has the game too so i'll try to get him to come play with us.
I'm glad to hear the full game is better than the demo. I played a couple of matches of kicking and punching, but couldn't figure out anything else, so it got the delete. I may have to pick this up. My screen name is Turbo_Subaru Original right?
picked it up today, but on the 360. Fun game now that i know how to do more than punch and kick haha.
