Fight Night Round 4 as suggested in the title is the forth instalment of the Fight Night series for  X Box 360 and Playstation 3.  Fight Night Round 3 was loved by many and even after this years instalment is called the best game in the series, I have to go out on a limb and say that Round 4 surpasses Round 3 in many aspects.  First is the graphics.  Round three was a very pretty game to look at but Round 4 manages to go one better by running at 60 frames per second, which also helps the speed of fights.  It can also be said that the animation in round three at times looked goofy while this years boxers look identical to their real life counterparts.  I will definitely say Fight Night Round Four is the best looking boxing game on the market.

The game play for this years game has had an overhaul as well, while we’ve been use to using the face buttons (Triangle, Square, Circle, X) (Y,X,A,B) to throw your jabs, right hooks, left hooks and uppercuts. The creative team has decided to use the right analogue for all punches in a somewhat motion response kind of system. In my personal opinion, this is far better from its predecessor as the commands seem to be a lot more responsive. The face buttons are now used for four separate commands which I can go through from a 360 users point of view.
