It has become the norm for retailers to offer pre-order incentives and in some cases exclusive ones.

Most UFC Undisputed 3 Fighter Ratings Now Available for Viewing
A few weeks ago the first fighter ratings for UFC Undisputed 3 made their way out with the focus primarily on the bantamweight and featherweight divisions. Today THQ made a sweeping update to their roster profile page which now includes the ratings breakdown for every fighter in the game - speed, strength, cardio, and footwork along with the nine offensive and defensive individual skill categories. Eight heavyweights, eight middleweights, and the majority of the Pride roster are still ...

Interestingly though EA Sports isn't walling off everything online-related with SSX and everyone will be able to play online. Instead those who doesn't have the "online pass" simply won't be receiving the "credits" that are given ...

UFC Undisputed 3 Gameplay Impressions
With over a year and a half since its last release the UFC Undisputed franchise had the benefit of considerable time to both improve and polish the final product. From what I experienced at a recent THQ preview event it would seem at least on the surface that they have succeeded in both respects with UFC Undisputed 3. Mixed martial arts is a dynamic and complex sport. To try and explain the improvements made, and why they make the game more fun and ultimately more realistic, I will use so...
