    Cliff_Forster I just got my copy today. Fight Night titles have had some online play issues in the form of some really cheap exploitable combos, and a sometimes less than optimal lobby and matchmaking system making it a little too easy for elite players to bully the noobs. It looks like EA is going to make a concerted effort to fix this in the update. We will know very soon if it pays off.

Howdy, Stranger!
