If you were a little disappointed in THQ's UFC last year then maybe EA's MMA FTW. EA have released new screens of their Mixed Martial Arts title to be released sometime this year and graphically they look very detailed..
UFC last wasn't exactly super easy points and some say it was boring by the fact every fighter had the same style and so it was just bashing the same buttons and combos. Personally I am not too keen on button bashing fighting games unless you can cheat with a God Mode. That way the fight is over quickly and you get the achievement.
none of the famous UFC fighters are in this becuase of contracts they have to the UFC franchise, also there is a hissy fit between UFC and EA becuase UFC went to EA to make UFC09 but Ea wanted nothing to do with it. Then seeing how well it did have made their knock off version.
wrong

CovertPimpSloth is wrong with his info. He seems to be listening to Dana White as words of wisdom, meanwhile it is far from fact.
EA has explained that they were never approached by Zuffa and have no record of anyone on their staff being approached by Zuffa for an MMA game. Zuffa went with THQ because of their connection with fake wrestling. EA said they had an MMA game in mind for awhile and only now could they proceed with it now that they have Strikeforce and DREAM for filling the roster, seeing how the UFC is exclusive in their rosters.
It's also why fighters like Randy Couture are not in the Undisputed game, they didn't sign away their likenesses for exclusive use by the UFC. Couture should be in the EA MMA game though because it isn't a life-time sign-off.

Suck!? HA! Yeah right! This game is going to do so much more better than UFC.
@Quielled Mind you are a idiot, sure Fedor, Bobby Lashley, Jason "Mayhem" Miller, Cung Le, Brett Rogers and Randy Coture are not famous ay? What are you smoking crack!?
EA MMA FOR THE MOTHA F*CKIN WIN!!!
Young Reezy, you are mis-informed about Randy Cout

Randy is in the game because he had already signed his likeness over to EA for Command & Conquer 3: Red Alert. He was still under contract with them for his likeness, so they could use him no matter what.
That is also why he was not in the UFC game, EA was not going to allow it, as Dana was bashing them anyways.
