Default EA's Fight Night 3 Demo (Screens and Media Added!)

I just noticed the new Fight Night Demo was available for download on the Marketplace, I havent got it yet but I most likely will tonight or tomorrow. Anyone downloaded it yet, if so is it any good?

Edited by Aquanox:
Here are the screenshots:





You can also get a well encoded video of the demo here:

In one word: ASTONISHING!

Sorry got to disagree,it looks impressive graphics wise,but the gameplay is sluggish,there is no round timer or stamina bar on screen(not important maybe) and on the slow-mo replays you got the odd graphical glitch for example your glove going inside your opponets head.And before anyone says it's only a demo and the finished version will be better,it may be worth waiting for the final reviews.

Full version may turn out to be different from the demo,but I was a little bit disappointed with the choice of fight ring in the demo,I was hoping it would be at a famous place like Madison Square Garden with crowds,ring girls,music,lights etc to show off the 360 better.
Also I should mention that my opponet didn't do a lot of fighting back and I won with just tapping the same button most of the time.

The graphics are awesome! It seems that when you hit your opponent, you are just giving love taps...nothing that really looks real hurtful. I haven't seen any glitches yet, but I only fought 2 times last night. They probly didnt set the demo in MSG because they didnt want to take FOREVER on putting the demo together...it IS just a demo to show gameplay and stuff. The other thing i didnt like at all was after you get your opponent almost KO'd he would just constantly back up and run away...it is so agrivating.

I took the liberty of editing your post so everyone can see the media.

This is maybe the most impressive real time Demo I've ever seen.

I downloaded it last night, and I though it was awsome. I think you guys are going to (HARSH ON A DEMO). They call it demo for a reason. Anyway, Im not a big fan on boxing games but this was fun. The graphics looked almost to real life like boxers fighing it out. The final version will be knock out, get it (knock out, k.o.) ah go to hell. Im glad at least we got to play before anyone else.

I thought the game was okay I just thought it was odd how none of the punches look like they do much damage. Graphics are great though.

They are hilarious right. A demo is just that, a demo. Everyone is entitled to their opinion however and I respect. Myself however, think that it is awesome! I think the demo serves its purpose, to introduce you to the FUTURE game. Also, I think that it is awesome that it doesn't have a hud. It makes it more realistic. Have FUN! That's what it is all about right?

I think that like any other EA game *apart from burnout* this game is gonna be crap. I am busy downloading the demo, but from what i have readi think that it will jst be good looks, which just isnt good enough. i hope that not all games are gona be like that on 360, mayeb its just EA. Oh well, i can only really say what i thnk when it is finished downloading.

*Edit*Damn theres alredy a thread on this

I have just finished playing the demo. As far as gameplay is concerned, I found it to be alright, but nothing more. Maybe that will change once I figure out how to block.

One thing that did blow me away though was the graphics. When the match started, I actually thought it was a cut-scene (there was nothing to indicate to me that the match had started, only when I started pressing buttons did I realise I was playing). They really are amazing.

Awesome demo. Though it has its share of glitches, i hope they fix it. The widescreen bars make it seem like a movie, which is cool.
