Well, I dont really know what to say about this game. I was really looking forward to playing it and after a couple of hours worth of gameplay, I'm honestly bored to death with it already. I love the UFC and MMA in general, but after having to sit through loading screens that are ridiculously long, to get to gameplay that radically varies in difficulty between boringly easy, and infuriatingly hard within the space of one fight. So you lose a fight within the space of 1 minute of the first round, you then have to sit through a loading screen twice as long as the time you played to then have the same thing happen again. The contols arent that great either, and to be honest, apart from the stand up stuff, I didnt even feel in control of the action half the time, particularly during takedowns and submissions. The commentary and voice acting get boring very quick too.
On a positive note, the game does look good, but I think it'll be traded very soon.

this is the best MMA game on console by far. theres nothing quite as satisfying as knocking out one of the games powerhouse fighters with a giant kick to the head. this is all fine and good. the problem is the ground game is far too complicated. not i know people will dissagree with me on this but i feel a phd is required to figure out what is actualy going on while grappling. due to this most of my fights end up with a 2 minute hugging sesion that ends up being broken up by the ref. this game is not for casual gamers and if learning 100 different moves for varying situations is not your thing i would sugest the fight night series.

UFC 2010 is basically the same game as URC 2009 except with a few minor improvements. The career mode is better but still not as good as i had hoped. The updated career mode incorporates many new aspects, but sadly some of the additions are quite annoying and done in a rather tacky way. However it is still an improvement on last years installment. The voice acting in this mode is very poor and the whole feel of this improved career mode does still have a tacky and cheap feel to it ..... but it is still better than 2009. What annoys me about the career mode is the training and the allocation of points to your fighters attributes. It can be very annoying if you have concentrated on becoming a decent stand-up fighter to then suddenly realise that it is impossible to submit anyone once the fight goes to the ground. So eventhough the career mode has recieved a face-lift; it still needs much improvement. However, despite all my complaints I have still found this mode enjoyable.
The other modes are still decent, especially the online mode although it can be a bit slow at times even with a good connection.
The game mechanics have been improved but are too similiar to last years game. The graphics look pretty dated especially when compared to those of EA's excellent Fight Night Round 4. Overall, this title feels like an add-on and not a new game. Having seen a few images of EA's new MMA video-game I can confirm that the graphics look much better than this game does. Will it play better too? Well thats a different question altogether and one that cannot be answered until we get to play it.
So for now; UFC 2010 is the best MMA game on any console, but whether that will be true in a few months time is another matter.
Overall, I do like the game but after 5 days of playing I am starting to tire of it and I doubt it will last another few days before I trade it in.
