"The long-awaited UFC video game from THQ, UFC 2009, will be officially revealed at UFC 84 on May 24th, the video game publisher has announced.
Last year at E3, an annual video game trade show, an early preview of the game was premiered. Since that release, however, no additional information has been announced. That will come to an end at UFC 84 when the company will reveal additional details about the game including a tentative release date as well as a new trailer.
The game will feature current and former UFC stars and is expected to be an annual release."

I'm looking forward to it. I just hope it doesn't suck.

I enjoyed the one on the Dreamcast and I didn't know anything about UFC at the time it was just a cool fighting game.

It's being developed in house by THQ apparently, which means things could go south QUICKLY.

The Dreamcast game was probably the best UFC game to date.

The Dreamcast one was great. I loved that before I had even heard of the UFC (outside of the game). The XBOX one was ok. It was good for the fact that it was pretty much identicle to the DC version from what I remember, but there was virtually no improvement. I've been very excited for this game ever since I saw that video from E3. I hope THQ doesn't screw this up. Maybe they should consider develping their games for more than a year before they put them out. That way we won't get the same watered down crap year after year.

Have you guys seen the trailer for this? It looks pretty good to me, i'm surprised by the negativity towards the game since it looks 10x better than any of the other games.

It's a term we call "bullshot". The trailer premiered at last years E3. The chances of that being like the final product are pretty slim. That's not to say it won't, since Killzone and Fight Night are fairly close to their CG trailers, but don't get too hyped about a teaser trailer from a year ago until real gameplay shots are show.

UFC games are usually hard to make. Cuz the way people play you win or lose in a matter of seconds.

If they do this game *right*, it will be the most complex sports video game of all-time... Thus, my expectations aren't very high.

I dont see how they could nail the controls. Theres so many vast styles in MMA that the controls would be rediculously complex.

I remember some MMA game (Don't think it was UFC but it could have been) but I was able to win a match within the first like 30 seconds... It was like this: Take down, submission...
