Its really addictive... I just hope it wont feel like a game that was released a year ago.

i love round 3, but i dislike the fact that i can knock any of my friends out with 2 well placed punches.

i miss round 2 where i could throw a 10 hit haymaker combo of fury... oh well.

if this is much better than the 360 version (doubtful) or if it has alot of extras, i'll pick it up.

I dont think I have to worry about the game looking dated on PS3... They seem to be spending some quality time making it look great.

The only problem with the visuals in FN3 is that all the boxers looks short and stubby. I mean, for example take Muhammad Ali - the guy was tall and of lean build, but in FN3 he looks like some chubby midget that just walked out of Subway after stuffing himself with 30 cold sandwiches and then put on a pair of gloves and a trouser to come fight in an exhibition boxing match.
