   Improving on fight night four in many ways without losing any key points. They've monumentally improved on counter punching, and using it to control the flow of the fight while improving graphics, framerate, and online content.… Expand

   This is an excellent addition to the franchise, with added features like being able to use your own portait for your boxer's face, as well as vastly improved graphics and physics. The career mode is also much improved from FNR3. HOWEVER, and I don't think I'm alone here, the total punch control is actually less responsive than FNR3, as I found my boxer throwing three or four low punches long after I had been tapping the stick in the upper quadrants. The disconnect between the stick movements and how and when punches are thrown also makes it seem like some knockouts/knockdowns were accidental, even if they weren't. Overall, I personally liked the TPC in FNR3 more than FNR4, but every other aspect of the game is so far superior that it's a no-brainer. Oh, and the soundtrack is way better, too.… Expand

   Not the best but there is nothing out there like this, major complaint is the sluggish controls, cant do most of the combos in the training because the controls dont respond to the input, throw a jab and u might get a hook. same issue im the harder fights, i find myself throwing punches when i want to block. sadly they have not fixed any of this so far.… Expand

   What the heck happened?! After the on-line joy that was fight night 3 I was so psyched for this game, talk about a let down. The fact that the whole punch control stick flick setup was forced on us gamers before the patch was just absurd. I enjoyed the career mode but most of us play FN for the on-line challenge which is just gone now. They had a great control scheme in 3 but had to go and mess with it and it really shows this time around on-line. Not only is the game clunky to play but the interface is awkward as well. The blocking has been completely ruined with it's instant timing or no dice counter method. How this game took such a giant leap backwards is beyond me, a text book example of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." If you are looking for good on-line boxing FN3 is till the only game in town.… Expand
