UFC 2009 Undisputed is a game that novices can enjoy but takes a great deal of time to master. That can make the fights feel extremely satisfying as you learn and pick up on the more advanced elements of the game.
Typically I don’t like to take the time out to run through tutorials. I’d rather figure things out from playing games naturally. But with UFC it is almost necessary to do the tutorials. It takes about a half hour to get through the six of them. After doing so I felt more comfortable about the controls and it made it easier to recall them instinctively in my following fights making my progression much more pronounced than if I hadn’t completed them.
Continue on to watch run-through videos of the tutorials. They cover navigation, striking, submissions, takedowns & clinches, transitions, and a final one showing a few miscellaneous moves.
