It's crazy that this older game is better than any ufc game ea has put out

[@highrick4674]

So much better man, especially the clinch and the ground game, much more immersive imo

[@LovelyHeartDiamond]

I prefer the ea games striking, but everything else goes to the undisputed series

[@kevinharris690]

I was about to type this ufc 5 should take some of these moves

[@crimsontide1980]

If the dev team could take the striking from EA UFC, the grappling,clinch system, submission, and ground and pound from Undisputed 3, and the damage system from EA MMA, this would be almost the perfect MMA game. And honestly I prefer Undisputed's striking even though it's not as fluid as EA UFC 4, but the strikes feel much more dangerous. I feel like in Undisputed 3 I can be knocked out at any given time. Bam, one punch and it's over. I never really get that feeling from EA UFC. I do like the fluidity of the strikes, the footwork, and the sways/slips, but the strikes just don't feel right, almost like a sparring session rather than a fight. And the striking on the ground is just pathetic in EA UFC.

@@crimsontide1980 facts espionage the gnp. Ea ufc2 gnp was the best but now it’s terrible I don’t feel like I’m punching

[@st33zy68]

That rampage fight was brutal 😂 that kick he did that made shogun pop up from all fours onto his back was lethal and filled with hate😂

[@areichental]

I've been a huge MMA fan for 12+ years and shoguns been fighting at the top level longer than that. What a god damn legend. Respect the tribute my dude.

[@WhatwouldRoddyPiperdo]

I remember these Pride days well, dude was a stone cold killer but I'd be lying if I said I feel as comfortable at 40 watching dudes get soccer kicked/stomped in the face as I did in my 20s haha

[@buildthyself1409]

I used to play these games with my granddad and father as a kid seeing the ring girl cut scene brought back so many memories of my granddad whistling and cat calling the ring girls 😭 simpler times

[@VegasBanksy]

this game was just everything, the silky striking of fight night champion, and such an in depth grappling system. 10/10 love this content martial.

[@austinbatton4849]

Lmao delusional about the striking , game has better grappling and small detail features that’s it

[@isthisloss2617]

@@austinbatton4849 it's sad ea had to make 4 ufcs to actually get good striking and then they trashed the ground game

[@TreyParker318]

I actually have all of the Pride events on dvd. Back in the day when the UFC first bought them out, there was a local Hastings that had some of the grand prixs and I was hooked. Went online to get all of the other events. The 2005 grand prix Shogun won was amazing.

[@crimsontide1980]

I'm jealous man! I have a pretty sizable collection myself but I know there's several I'm missing. I get on a kick now and then where I'll surf Ebay and buy like 8 or 9 at a time. My goal is to eventually own them all. Almost every single Pride event was epic! Even knowing the outcome I still love watching them to this day.

[@TreyParker318]

@@crimsontide1980 same I love that Era. Pride has some dvd sets with like Pride 1-10 etc. Try looking for those.

[@crimsontide1980]

@TreDaySensei I have 7 different box sets that have like 5 events each. They're numbered from 1 to 34. I bought the set off Ebay like 8 years ago for $50, and to this day I consider that one of the best deals I've ever found. That's like less than $2 per Pride event

[@crimsontide1980]

@TreDaySensei I think the DVD set is called Pride Legacy, each one has a different fighter on the cover and the photo is in black and white

[@MrBeavis84]

I miss Pride FC I use to get all of the ppvs back in the day and record them on the vcr . Chute Boxes vs The Brazilian Top team was a good rivalry. I miss those days.

[@crimsontide1980]

Ah the Pride days........IMHO the peak of MMA. I always loved the Pride events. Japan always went all out for their PPVs. You can sense the love Japan has for the sport.

[@Richard_dicky_Johnson]

This is still the best UFC/MMA game ever made and it's over 10 years old.

[@SilentL9]

I genuinely love seeing Henry enjoy himself playing these classics makes me laugh everytime, Bless up big ups man.

[@Imhim247]

Thanks, MM! I love Pride mode. This is a great showcase for Shogun! Happy Retirement, Shogun! A true icon to the MMA community

[@datboibarrz7113]

Yesssss I been waiting on some Undisputed 3 gameplay from you thank you 🙏🏽

[@Poteluz]

But it says on his description that the game being played is EA UFC 2014

@@Poteluz KZbin error.

[@jeanmulford]

That rampage fight was awesome! Legit thought you were going to get knocked out on that boxing combo. Love UFC 3 gameplay

[@nonamenogimmicks3277]

The ground and pound in this game is absolutely insane I wish they’d do a game this style again with updated graphics

[@philyoutuber7270]

The gameplay in this is so fluid and smooth… still the best MMA game out there

[@michaelschmidt4352]

UFC 3 by THQ is the best MMA game ever made still! I wish THQ hadnt gone under cuz they made the best MMA games by far all the way back to the first one they made for the Dreamcast.

[@CadChamberlain]

Shogun's knees on Rampage were so brutal. Really makes me glad knees to grounded opponents arent a thing in UFC

[@WhatwouldRoddyPiperdo]

Man I miss this game so much great memories of my 20s playing online, want to play it so bad but not enough to go live on a 360 or PS3 away from my mates

[@joshnicholson6194]

Phenomenal video idea, Martial.

[@SkinnyETBird]

Why are all the old games so much better then ufc they went crazy backwards overtime

[@qlrgy]

Sad to see all the pride legends retiring they going extinct 😢

[@chosenking9594]

The grappling and the ground-and-pound is so much better and vicious on this game than UFC ea 4 I remember walking from my house to GameStop to get this game when I was 16. best mma game ever I still got a copy of ufc undisputed 3 for the ps3 wish I can play it on PS4 or ps5

[@JarrylKhan]

Damn Martial getting 10-8'd by the word DLC cracked me up

[@Godzilla52]

I really wish we lived in a universe where THQ was still making UFC Undisputed games.

[@kylekimosabi2062]

Imagine all the great shit on top on running on newer technology 😫 shit would break the world

[@malikevans2615]

15:44 he's literally kicking your ass right there Martial lol

[@Coby-yf7qk]

put the modes and grappling from this game with the improved striking of ufc 4 and we have a great mma game

[@quanstone1461]

Read our mind Martial. We love the undisputed gameplay

[@bigdrip8073]

This game feels fun to watch more like a real fight

[@benvanderlinde4444]

I’m I the only one wanting another martial mind career mode for this game

[@tekkn_579]

@15:40 this is why EA need to re-master this game and make some tweaks to the striking and you have an amazing game, all the new UFC games dont generate this much hype lol

[@oEugene]

EA didn’t make this game

[@rubenrazo1855]

Not going to lie, I’m always rooting for the other guy in your videos, because you’re just so good! But this one against Rampage was awesome!

[@lethweiblackbelt]

Crazy how shogun ran thru all those guys and he was a underdog who looked like a regular dude with a dad bod while everyone else looked like physical specimen. Legend 💪💯

[@jokein1227]

This game is so awesome hope ufc 5 can try to recreate this magic

[@ayo1501]

love the Shogun tribute keep it up martial

[@Avirxu]

So much about this game just looks more fun and entertaining than UFC 4. Just things from the entrances and commentary to the slams and other moves. As someone who has only played UFC 4 in the series, I wish this was the game I was playing instead

[@marcorojas-vazquez6792]

Naa you wouldnt its pretty shit once you go online. Same thing with spamming and the stand up game was garbage

[@crimsontide1980]

Yea this game is several levels above the EA UFC games. Other than the stand up being on the stiff side, and head damage not regenerating between rounds, the gameplay is solid. Games also 11 years old. Just imagine what we could have if they continued to make Undisputed games, and they continued to improve upon each game. We would likely have something truly epic......makes me sad to think about what could have been

[@MizzDrizzley]

@@marcorojas-vazquez6792 You have no idea what you’re talking about and it’s screaming casual fan. Please do us all fans a favor and stfu

[@dun0790]

Ill never forget this my mate got a pride boxset for his birthday in 07 or 08 i was intrigued so he said i could lend it and watching shoguns rise ive been hooked ever since and as much as i love modern mma and UFC pride never die!

[@tcwentertainment]

11:51 Honestly that'a about right for Rampage breaking a submission

[@bradfrank6512]

Rampage Jackson in the older games was a problem. He always gave me a good fight. The power in his hands was strong, and his clinch uppercut was broken.

[@amend5504]

DUUDEE… I AM WATCHING THIS AFTER A YEAR, YOU DO SHOGUN RUA SO GOOD I WISH YOU DID MORE KNEES ON CLINCH IT WOULD BE PERFECT ITS LIKE WATCHING SHOGUN RUA AGAIN!! AWESOME! ‼️‼️

[@broskiproductions49]

We need a pride grand Prix with continuous damage, it would have been awesome to see how you faired after the rampage fight. Perhaps the new dog in the yard heads to pride?👀

[@jamall7003]

Now I'd definitely love to watch a tournament from this game! Similar to how Henry Did the UFC 4 tournaments

[@qjburgess7631]

Ur face when page was putting the whooping on u as the thumbnail, too funny!🤣❤️

Ohhh how i miss this master piece

I repurchased my XBOX360 for this.

[@bobsaget9861]

Thank you thank you thank you thank you my brotha I know you couldn’t get the dlc to play the mode where you recreate the fights but I appreciate you just playing the pride mode in this exact manner in replacement for us. Thank you again

Play more of this!!!

[@nra0944]

DLC bro🤣🤣 you had me DYING over here lmfao, all love Martial beautiful video. Good farewell to a legend on in many ways the best mma game. Ground game was miles ahead of what we get from ufc 4

Luv Luv this game... No UFC game that followed it managed to give such an authentic octagon representation... Just found this vid MM... keep it up...

[@larrydalobster3548]

12:45 was so nicee the game was so explosive you could do everything

[@juliej8505]

Rampage wanted more then a knockout that fight had me sitting up 😅

[@devancedaboss3498]

Now this what I'm talking about

[@jamerialwhite3694]

This is the most perfect MMA game of all time. I love the variety of grappling positions as well as knockdown animations. They were so lazy with UFC 4, so lazy that they removed clinch game. I miss games when they were ambitious.

[@kylemcdavid4238]

The concentration on this man 😂😂 loving the videos keep it up much love

[@badgedog]

damn this game looks wicked, how did the grappling take such a huge shit in ufc4?

[@crimsontide1980]

It's never been good in any of the EA games. THQ Yukes has always gone good translating the grappling to the game. They have alot of experience with all the wrestling games they've released over the years.

[@mashdeegaaaaz6655]

Ufc undisputed 3 is still the best Ufc game ever made and it's not even close

[@yoboopanda3019]

Yo Martial I just watched gameplay on this sick PS2 boxing game called “Victorious Boxers 2” brotha you have to give it a quick watch I’m certain you’ll play the hell out of it. As an MMA fighter I have to say AWESOME

[@trentonskrine3008]

This was the best fucking UFC/MMA game ever made bar none. EA fucked the formula all up

[@tekkn_579]

Imagine Khabib on this game with the ground/grappling system which you can use on the cage as well. UFC 4 players cannot even use Khabibs strengths properly on their game 😂😂😂

[@Ellie64400]

God I wish this game is backwards compatible this is the one game I was hoping that would come to come to the Xbox One

[@mattymorris4751]

Crazy how this is a better game then ufc 4

[@retrospect35]

Man I miss the old ground game

[@johnsubris7255]

Is there a tournament mode in this game? It would be dope to be able to recreate a Grand Prix with the likes of hendo, cro cop, wanderlei, hunt and other legends with this incredible game.

Pride, the game was waay ahead of its time

[@godlytate7441]

one of my favourite vids of yours

[@sirkiken]

To my knowledge, DSL stands for 1 of 2 things: Dish Satellite Link or...something very very different.

[@Austinn801]

I used to do this so much as a kid playing this game. I would play all the way up to the Jon Jones fight and rewrite history and have Shogun win that matchup. I still think that EA's MMA is the most realistic MMA game ever made, but the inclusion of pride mode and pride fighters made this game an all time classic.

[@crimsontide1980]

I couldn't get into EA MMA. I tried so hard to enjoy it but honestly I would play it for a couple days and put it back down. Hated the simplistic ground game, the striking was somewhat fluid but certain strikes like the head kicks looked so awkward. I felt like the fighters weren't individualized enough.......they all pretty much had the exact same punches and kicks. Some had a spinning heel kick or spinning backfist but all their strikes looked identical and I couldn't get over that. No way Nick Diaz should punch the same way as Fedor or Manhoef. EA MMA had a couple things going for it, like the awesome damage regeneration system and online fight cards, but I just couldn't get into the gameplay. I'm one of the few that was actually hyped for it after the roster reveal, most people seemed to be turned off by the lack of UFC licensing and fighters but I thought the roster was excellent for what they had to work with. Shame it didn't have better gameplay IMO. I know a few people actually enjoyed it and hey, to each their own.

[@WarPaintClub]

Thank you, Shogun.

[@lmRy4n]

ground game on undisputed is so satisfying

[@MultiTwentyseven]

come on martial, give us another Undisputed 3 career Mode on the highest difficulty!

Bro, love the channel. Watched the Undisputed gameplay earlier. I miss this game. Forgot about the Pride stuff... Got a sub from me bro. Middle to end of first round was crazy with the Rampage fight!
