GamePro.com Gives Undisputed 5 Stars

Undisputed was awarded 5 stars and the coveted Editor's Choice by GamePro.com! Here are some snippets of what they had to say:

"... [W]hat the game does so well is it also captures the strategic element of the sport. It isn't just about two dudes trying to beat the crap out of each other-it's about two dudes trying strategically to beat the hell out of each other."

"... THQ and Yuke's... has delivered a title that perfectly captures the spirit and vibe of
the brutal yet compelling sport-UFC 2009 Undisputed is a title that both hardcore fans and novices alike can embrace and has the potential to make UFC a household name among gamers."

UFC 66: Chuck Liddell vs. Tito Ortiz II
UFC 47: Liddell versus Ortiz was the first UFC event I attended live. Since then, I’ve been to a number of shows, but I must say, I’ve never heard the crowd get as loud as it did during the flurry that Liddell finished Ortiz with to get the title. That place exploded. It was crazy, and it’s something I’ll never forget.
