UFC Undisputed 3 is a mixed martial arts (MMA) fighting game in which players step into the iconic octagon fighting cage to battle in one-on-one action for the ultimate fighting championship (UFC). Just as in real MMA bouts, players of UFC Undisputed 3 use a variety of martial arts disciplines separated into striking and grappling techniques in an attempt to knockout an opponent, force him to submit or win a decision on points. The game features a huge roster of real UFC fighters in multiple weight classes, as well as a new submission system, simplified controls and an improved online component.
Step Inside the Octagon Once Again
The critically acclaimed and best-selling MMA video game franchise returns to take players inside the Octagon with UFC Undisputed 3, delivering UFC action focused on intense toe-to-toe combat, impressive visual presentation and increased accessibility. One of the most exciting additions of UFC Undisputed 3 is the inclusion of the new Pride mode. Pride mode is a no-holds-barred Japanese MMA league that augments standard gameplay. Along with a separate belt, it brings with it brutal soccer-style kicks, head stomps and ground knees to the head that make for an entirely separate type of fight. The game also expands the available roster of real, playable fighters in-game to more than 150. The selection of fighters is spread across seven UFC weight classes and feature current superstars and classic fighters, as well as hungry up-and-coming fighters to look for in the UFC.
The game also features a brand new submission system, new ways to finish the fight and increased accessibility through both traditional and simplified gameplay controls. Players also experience the excitement of a live UFC event through significant visual improvements. Improvements include broadcasting from cage-side, new camera positions and the introduction of much-anticipated fighter entrances. Rounding out the UFC experience with a significantly improved online feature set, including new and updated offerings, UFC Undisputed 3 lets players have their fights – their way – to deliver the most competitive and engaging experience to date for the franchise.

Customer Reviews
THQ took some time off to improve the UFC Undisputed Series and it's paid off, delivering the best and deepest MMA game ever. The biggest gripe regarding the previous 2 offerings was that the game was too hard. The learning curve was steep. It made the game hard to get into. This version -- while similar -- is easier and more welcoming than those before it.
Roster: There's one thing that no one will deny regarding this game -- the licensed roster is huge and accurately resembles it's stars! Biggest roster of any MMA game ever, including the lower weight classes -- not featured in previous UFC Undisputed's (since UFC/WEC had not merged as of then). One negative -- Overeem ; Nick Diaz have to be obtained via pre-order codes ; Facebook contests/DLC. Companies continue to milk consumers:(
Presentation: Overall, the content in this game seems endless. The game has tons of game modes (career and online) and now features PRIDE (yes, head stomping!). To me, that is huge since it takes you out of the Octagon and into the ring where many UFC stars became famous (ie. Liddell, Rampage, Hendo, Silva, Gracie, etc.). The graphics look great -- from player models, crowds, etc.
Gameplay: At the start of the game, one can pick Amateur Controls or Pro Controls. For those looking for a less daunting scheme, Amateur controls is a welcomed edition. This mode will even teach you controls as you're playing (ie. about to do a takedown or a submission). The submission controls have also changed for the better with a sort-of mini-game (Octagon shaped gauge). Create a Fighter is average at best -- most characters look similar. Career mode is improved -- it focuses on fighting, not time wasting tasks and allows you to use a Roster fighter if desired.
Overall: 9/10. THQ took their time and you'll feel like you got your money's worth (on content alone). For those who've played the previous versions, you'll feel as if THQ listened to you and improved the game. Having played them and EA Sports MMA, I like this one the best.
UFC Undisputed 3 is "BIGGER. BADDER. BETTER" that should have been the tagline for this years game instead of being wasted on that WWE crap. THQ was pissing me off with the long wait time. First they take a year off, cool, if your going to take a year off to get things right then I am good with that. Then they set a release date for Jan. 3rd of this year but then push the game back to the 14th of Feb. Now after playing the game it was worth the wait. Career mode doesn't have that annoying stat decay. Gameplay feels more fluid. Submissions (even though the big octagon covering the screen looks stupid) are more easier to pull off and it doesn't feel like the game is cheating you out. Pride mode is fun as hell. Shogun Rua is one of my favorite fighters of all time and being able to soccer kick someone's head in brings back memories. Well worth the 60 for this and I hate THQ but they got this game right. Could it be better? Yeah, but I ain't complaining.
