One of the things that makes this game as good as it is, is the ability to have a kickboxer take on a wrestler.Or maybe if you're in the mood, a sumo wrestler vs a jiu jitsu karate master.The games graphics are nothing short of amazing, either, with the best ring entrances I've ever seen.The sound is also awesome, and the hits sound realistic.Also, there's a create a fighter mode.So what are you waiting for?LETS GET IT ON!

Graphically superb. It is also challenging playing in single person mode. However, like most fighting games, the most fun is playing against one of your friends. This is the only real downside to the game.

If you are a little skilled at the game you can put your opponent in a hold and make him tap out in only a few seconds. It takes a while to learn how to avoid these moves and if you not playing against someone who owns the game you will most likely just beat them very quickly match after match unless you agree that there are no submission holds allowed. So this isn't the type of game where you can just both get in the ring and beat on each other. It takes some practice to learn the special moves each fighter has and how to avoid submission holds.

My only other critique is that the game manual does little to help you learn how to play. So it is pretty much a just learn as you go type thing. Other than that it is quite fun and entertaining. If you love fighting games you will like this one for sure. The standing, grappling, and submission positions add a depth that is currently unmatched by other fighting games.

A Pure Wrestling Game

this is not your typical wrestling game. if you can hook a submission hold on someone it takes them out.....imediately. and you have to wear down your opponents before attempting some moves because otherwise they will counter them. however,because of some of these the game loses points. when you start off the matches will be short. either you will totally kick butt or you will totally get you butt kicked. when starting off the game is not easy,but if you give it a little time it will grow on you.

Might as well get into a barroom brawl

No real martial arts, aside from the standard UFC "punch me, then I'll punch you" garbage.

I was hoping that with a system based on the styles of martial artists we'd get something beyond "Street fighting" and "Grappling"

While it can provide some passing entertainment, it's not much good beyond that.

Dont Buy It (But read the review to find out why)

I would probablay have liked this game better if it didn't break within the first couple times of play. My DC won't even read the disc (and this isn't from abuse), and it reads all the other discs fine. I can't return it because it has already been opened, ...so I'm screwed. I highly advise you not to buy this game.

Great buy!

Ultimate fighting champianship is awsome! I have been a fan of the UFC for many years and i always wanted a videogame to play after watching it. Crave was brave enough to take on the media and make this awsome game. there are plenty of fighters and lots of cool moves. It seems that if you can think of a button combination it has a new move just waiting for you. One major problem with this game is the blood. Or lack of blood. When you hit someone with a good shot little red pixels light up for a milli secound and then they disappear. Kids need to know that a knee to the face is going to create a pool of blood. I think Crave took 10 steps forward with this game. but they took a step back with the way the blood is shown.

A bang up job!!!!

Ultimate Fighting Championship - A Gaming Masterpiece

In the brutal world of UFC, combatants fight each other in the octagon until one man in either unconscious, or submits due to pain. The same can be said for the UFC video game, which takes the popular federation of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and puts it onto a game disc. Crave Entertainment has done an outstanding job on this game. The graphics are amazing and the character animations are almost up to par with the jaw dropping graphics of Shenmue. The controls are quite easy to master with proper practice. The gameplay is unlike any other fighting game in the way that every move has it's own counter move, which makes facing the computer an actual challenge and makes for more balanced fights.

There are a few different modes to choose from in the game. There is UFC Mode, in which you take one of the many fighters of the UFC and go through a tournament to win the UFC Silver Championship. Then there is Champion Road which is available after completing UFC Mode. In this mode you must defend your title against 12 fighters in a row. The next mode is Career mode in which you create a fighter of your own and train him to the top. This create-a-fighter mode is not as detailed as the ones in THQ's most recent WWF games, but it is very good in it's own right. Other modes include exhibition mode, training mode, and tournament mode.

This game is one of the many gems made for the Sega Dreamcast and if you are a fan of UFC you will not be disappointed. However if you are a fan of professional wrestling you may be turned off due to the fact that UFC does not use high flying tactics and it doesn't have the soap opera story-lines. I do feel though that if you are not a fan this game has the possibility to turn you into one.

Are you ready?

Hey this game would be ok if the matches could last more than 5 seconds!!! But the graphics are the best I have ever seen in any fighting or sports game ever!! I suggest renting this one first!
