After managing a respectable-yet-flawed debut in 2014, EA has taken a second stab at crafting a licensed UFC game. The sophomore effort builds on the strengths of its predecessor to produce a much deeper and more satisfying experience.

UFC 2 may be the best MMA fighter I have played, even if doesn't mix things up as much as some might hope. I love being able to pit Mike Tyson against Bruce Lee in the octagon and what's best is that UFC 2 is easy to pick up and play, which makes it more accessible to newcomers and veterans alike.
It is the fourth round of a UFC featherweight championship fight. My fighter, a former UFC lightweight champion who worked his way to the top after winning The Ultimate Fighter in dominant fashion, is in big trouble.
Tight controls; Beautiful; realistic graphics; Interesting Ultimate Team Mode
Steep learning curve for new players; Event Mode needs more fine tuning
Trying to distill everything that makes MMA so brutal, complex, and amazing to watch is no simple task. EA Sports' first outing in the UFC franchise was an interesting first stab at bringing the intensity of the sport to the console, but it lacked the approachability that helped define their other...
This visually stunning take on the sport of MMA builds on the depth and variety of combat styles that makes the sport so appealing to audiences around the globe

Once I got over that awkward moment after realising that the two superstars that grace the cover of UFC 2 only recently lost their last fights, the irony couldn't be more obvious. UFC 2 is a great attempt by EA to recreate the action that is depicted in the octagon, and for most parts it succeeds.
Bruising, buggy and beautiful, UFC 2 is a technically triumphant fighter, but its combat can easily flounder and frustrate.
It looks incredible; Ground holds are a tense treat; Knockdowns make you feel 50ft tall
Punches lack punch; Career mode sorely lacks personality; Not enough content on offer
Fun to play at parties with many people. You can play tournaments and try all the different characters for lasting fun.
What you're left with is an impressive package that represents both a marked improvement from its predecessor and a real treat for UFC fans - even if it may not capture everything that's great about the sport.
EA UFC was a great game, but it lacked substance. The meat was fine, but it had no potatoes. The other problem with the game was that while the presentation was great, it suffered from a ridiculous ground game system and lack of other game modes.
