EA Sports Fight Night Round 3 (PS3) > Reviews

Advantages: The best looking game ever made. Fantastic depth of control.
Disadvantages: As usual with EA games, crap music. Control system may not be to everyone's tastes

GRAPHICS I feel a bit annoyed with myself for harping on about how good the graphics are in previous PS3 games I've reviewed, because it takes the edge off of what I'm about to say.
