This is my FIRST documentary style video. Took longer than anticipated because I had to emulate the older titles, and write the longest script ever lol. Thank you for watching!
This should be in NETFLIX… I am the biggest Fight Night fan… I one the Buffalo, NY tournament but I wasn’t gonna pay to fly out to Las Vegas for the finals. But I got the T-Shirt for winning… it was pretty dope. It’s sad they stole the new engine for fight night on EA UFC 2

Damn Man, This is Great Retrospective of A series I've been playing since Knockout Kings 2000. I stumbled upon this channel while playing Fight Night 2004 on my PS2. This details the evolution of the series but also points out what we're missing from older games.
Top Tier. Thank you for the hard work. It was needed for this genre. Sidenote: my history with the franchise dates back to KK 2000. There's not a better game on the PS1
It’s crazy how Round 4 isn’t getting a lot of love. I always see comments like Fight Night 2004 and Fight Night Round 3 the best. Also this was freaking amazing!
For me it was 2004 and Round 3… they were the best balanced, which trumps graphics all day long IMO. The combos were smoother and more fluid. Now Fight Night round 2 was the worst
@@IVSAKENSOUL no problem brotha I’m honored myself being early of witnessing a great channel like yours... if I may suggest, maybe you can make a video on your predictions/wishlist for potential fighters to be added onto ESBC? Would really love your insights bro... all love and have a great day!!
My mannnn.... You did an awesome job on the narration, very creative writing and even the way you delivered your words sounded very professional! Keep working! 👊 @IGN cut the kid a cheque!!!
Great video! Appreciate the in-depthness; especially the fact that you went into the boxing games made by EA prior to Fight Night. Definitely gained a new sub!
Tbf with E.a and fight night champion we give E.a (rightly so) a lot of stick for just keeping the same game every year so it was nice they tried something different. Also bare knuckles was soo much fun. Happily payed for that dlc.
Yup 💯!!! That’s my exact order as well… the first Fight Night was the best! Even if combos weren’t meant for the buttons… there was a timing delay that made you feel like you were connected to your fighter and throwing straight heat. Parry was a little unrealistic but it worked because it balanced the game and made you think strategically about every punch thrown. Button mashers got schhmaaacked!! Timing was everything and more importantly you had to figure out your opponent’s style and pattern. It’s #1 for me because the controls were so intuitive I felt like I was really connected to my fighter. Although you couldn’t punch moving footwork was probably the best footwork for realistic movement and just the balance scale. You had to get set to punch but you could stick and move if you couldn’t go toe to toe with someone. Being ranked #30-#40 average and always in the top #100 I had a lot of guys jab and run winning fights against me until I learned how to cut the ring off. There was a skill to everything but nothing was OP and any good competitive true sports game is going to have an advanced rock/paper/scissors approach… meaning you can adjust and counter attack when your opponent’s throw the same punch or combo…. Ahhh the memories!!
You absolutely nailed this man! Great work. I miss this series so much. I'm not a UFC fan and want a really good boxing game on PS5. I heard they released a game called Undisputed but I haven't seen a copy at any stores or been able to download it. i wonder if a copy of Fight Night Champion from PS3 would work on PS5 because it's backwards compatible. If it is, I'm ordering that bad boy online today!
Great documentary bro. Props for the amount of work put in here. Well done ✊. Think I'm going to go with your reccomendation from a previous video of yours were we interacted, and pick up Fight night round 4, ✌️.
The graphics on these games especially the later ones hold up sooo well. I would love so much for a new one. I used to play so many matches just as Tyson and beating the f out of people for hours. Stunning game. Amazing series. Disgusting it’s disappeared. I genuinely remember every day I got the game for the first day and booting it up. Like I remember the exact time day and what I did that whole day for everyone one of these games. Nothing too special but I played and got fight night.
Really gotta say it..i Salute thats really beyond amazing and i wish they just to think to make a new one but with a new generation online head to head matchs to can really be the best of the best
I haven’t owned a console since ps2 and xbox360! About to buy a ps4 used at 35. Mannnnn I just googled fight night to see if they still make it. What a bummer. Fight night games were my favorite! Those haymakers!! The way it went slow motion. That game was epic! Dude they need to bring it back. What a bummer. I highly doubt undisputed comes close to the fun arcade play as fight night. They need to bring it back. It’ll be huge man. It was def before it’s time back then before boxing was even getting super popular back then as it is now. I’m talking round 2 when I was in high school
I don't think we'll ever see a mechanically accurate boxing sim again. I think any new boxing games will have online competition in mind which doesn't result in the most immersive experiences.
The only ones in the franchise i like due to its technical nature was FNR2 and FNR3 but ill stick with traditional fighting games....they are way more technical and have better staying power
Honestly I'm upset EA is simply not making another game. I mean look at madden the sales aren't there and they have cut the roster I would assume to save money but my point being boxing is the world's biggest sport and everyone all over the world buys and plays this game so its just funny to me there isn't going to be another one... don't get me wrong the cinnamatics and gameplay on Undisputed looks absolutely awesome but I have so much trust in this game now after round 3 to champions that they need to just do an overhaul on the graphics and call it a day... at the end of the day EA I want to see greatness but why does everything need to restart right when "the going was getting good"?
@@IVSAKENSOUL Yeah, but there's enjoying them and then there's acting like the mechanics of the game are soooo realistic, when Round 3 isn't realistic in the slightest, man 😂 Video could have still been good while admitting cons as well as pros is all I'm saying.
@@aryanpugilist I did a video ranking them all, where I mentioned cons about each game. Idk. I grew up playing these, and they are the only boxing games out besides 2K's Don King Presents Prizefighter. I did hype the games up tho, but that's cuz they're fun af
@@aryanpugilist Round 3 (minus the parry system) its more realistic and technical than the others in the franchise. Unless you prefer 'arcade fighting'...
I was top 10 online player in FNR4 ps3 and never used buttons. You had to have skills to block and slip the punches. If you had good blocking skills you could counter punch button spammers.
Yeah, that's got nothing to do with EA producing boxing games. Floyd was only featured in one iteration of the series. It's common knowledge that EA, partnering with the UFC, was the ultimate game changer. Your comment and Floyd's "impossible price tag" have something in common.

2004's animations were almost 1 to 1, and 3 was the most strategic one.

@@IVSAKENSOUL keep doing what you’re doing man
Still play fight night round champion till this day lol. The online championship and the story mode go crazy
We have to admit, EA did what no other boxing game has done
Dude that's the best commentary I've heard this far, no extra jibberish just straight to the point, lovely you have a new found talent
I've never known so much about "The History of Fight Night" until now. Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very nice illustration and narration.
Thank you!
Great content. Really appreciate this especially since FNC is the first boxing title I’ve played. Appreciate the detail presented for each title.
Knockout kings was my game as a kid. I busted out 02 and played it for some good memories.
Nice. I had fun playing them. Boxing games have come a long way since
This has to be the best documentary made for boxing games genre. Would be cool to see a part 2 with Undisputed 👌

Great video bro! I hope we can get this kind of community analysis for the UFC games. EA has put out straight garbage lately though
Thank you!!! Sadly, EA is too money hungry to give us anything worthy
I actually liked Champion's story mode, but career mode was excellent.

What’s up with you and Joe Frazier in 😂 in every game you were fighting him
hahaha I mainly do it to show progression of the same characters.

Damn that’s the only boxing game Floyd may weather was ever in
So did any fight night games ever have a slugfest mode? If so what game had It? It seems fun.
Fight night champion has the most broken difficulty setting ever it’s so unpredictable.

FN champion is tha GOAT
Wait a minute! So there are feminine boxers on Fight night on the PS1 and Nintendo 64? 😕😕😕
I like fn round 2 n waiting for fn 04 to get delivered, dont like round 3 its slow n sluggish

Fight Night round 4 is the best for me. Fight Night Champion sucks because of the autoblock and straight right spam.
Lol fight night champion is goat and perfect while fn round 4 is trash the controller is on analog not on button not playable
