Watching UFC on Xbox One, I had a similar feeling of ‘sheeeit, that really, really looks like two guys giving it the old Superman vs Zod’. Whereas other games have to render entire worlds, GM for EA UFC Dean Richards told me, UFC - like Fight Night before it - puts all of its horsepower into making the two fighters in front of you - and their interactions - appear as realistically as possible.

From our brief glimpse, it appears EA has done exactly that. Previous MMA title (called EA, erm, MMA) looked good, but this is something else. One demo had a fighter rear-naked choking...

News: Sony: 'No plans' for PS3 price cut news

Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, Gara explained that "the PlayStation 3 is a system where it hasn't been particularly easy to get the costs down.

"We continue to look at opportunities, there may or may not be any more, I genuinely can't answer to that. But it will certainly be a more keenly priced machine in relative to PlayStation 4."

Gara believes that the PS3, which currently retails for between £139.99 and £199.99, will remain "a viable entry level machine for years to come.

News: GameStick release pushed back to mid-August news

In a Kickstarter update posted yesterday, the firm wrote: "It has taken a while longer to prepare the review UI than we had hoped. This is in part because the DEV version of the hardware this will be delivered on is slightly different from the production hardware. This has required a duplication of effort that we have had to balance with ensuring that work on the final units maintained momentum.

"As a result we have not yet had the feedback that we wanted prior to finalizing the UI and going ahead with mass production. In the spirit of Kickstarter it would be disingenuous of us...

The inclusion came about after the team added TF2 characters to Joe Danger just for fun, and it looked so good that they spoke to Valve and were given the all clear to include the entire cast.
