@ZarakixKenpachi: I am thinking that in terms of story it might have more mature themes(maybe drugs?)but who knows maybe you could break your opponent's nose and it makes a disturbing crunching zoom in effect?You could do it in FNR4 but it didn't bend or nothing just crunched.

Agreed. This looks like a return to the Knockout Kings style of game, but with the improved total punch control.

Funny how video game boxing seems to have more excitement and relevance than the real thing these days.

Great trailer, the game looks fantastic and I just love the idea of a story in a boxing game. It actually makes perfect sense. This is defiantly on my radar for next year!

I'm really excited for the story mode stuff. I always felt like that was the one thing missing from the Fight Night series.

Looks like it has some of that weird semi-cel shading texturing that EA MMA had.

I'm curious to see what in this game actually will warrant the M rating. So far it's just a little blood, and that's still Teen rating territory. How brutal is it actually gonna get to get that rating? Certainly not actual GORE right?
Fight Night Round 4 was one of the only sports games I've actually purchased and enjoyed.

Bad idea. Is not like we know how to box. The player on the screen will look like a spaztic kid without his medicine if the game supports kinect or move.

I like it. It feels like a good fit and something that could actually replace the tired "career mode" of calenders, cellphones and so on.

Oh yeah.  I'm really looking forward to this one because it'll be the third iteration of their technology on these consoles so they've probably (probably mind you) worked out the system to make it work great.  I skipped the last one but by the time this one comes out I think I'll be ready for some more face punching! :)

An M rating? Maybe we'll get to kill a dude or two in the ring while naked and shouting expletives.

The Fight Night series has always been top class (although adding back in the button commands was a bit of a concession too far). It was already pretty brutal after the end of a tough match, this should be interesting to watch how far they go.  
 
It would be great to have a Raging Bull mode - black and white (plus red of course) with the full soundtrack.

Wow, that was a great trailer. Also, its great to finaly see EA making a boxing game with an M rating. Its a brutal ass sport and an M is fitting.
