EA Sports UFC 2: Ground Game Overhaul Brings Exciting Changes to MMA Fights

The long-awaited sequel to the critically acclaimed mixed martial arts (MMA) fighting game series is finally here. EA Sports UFC 2 promises to deliver more realistic and thrilling combat experiences on both the Octagon floor and outside of it, with a particular focus on revamping one area that fans have been clamoring for – the ground game.

For those who may not be familiar, the original EA Sports UFC was praised for its faithful recreation of real-life MMA fighters and intense in-ring action. However, critics also pointed out several shortcomings that detracted from what could've otherwise been a truly unforgettable gaming experience. Chief among these issues were the lackluster presentation options compared to other sports titles on current-gen consoles, as well as an underwhelming array of game modes outside of the main 1-on-1 match-up.

Fortunately for fans of MMA and fighting games alike, EA Sports UFC 2 has listened to player feedback loud and clear. With a host of exciting new features, improvements, and additions across every aspect of gameplay – including but not limited to an overhauled presentation system that allows players greater customization options than ever before; the addition of brand-new game modes such as career mode where you can now train up your fighter's attributes between fights; and most importantly perhaps - a complete overhaul of the notoriously difficult ground fighting mechanics.

In EA Sports UFC 2, submissions have become much more rewarding for both the attacker and defender alike. No longer will you feel like your hard-earned progress is instantly undone by an errant armbar attempt from across the Octagon. Instead, players must now time their transitions perfectly if they hope to catch their opponent off guard or transition seamlessly into submission attempts.

But that's not all - EA Sports UFC 2 also introduces new grappling mechanics such as 'stalling,' which allows fighters who are being taken down a chance to escape without taking damage by holding onto the left stick while in close range. This adds another layer of strategy and depth to ground fights, making every interaction feel more realistic than ever before.

In conclusion, EA Sports UFC 2 is an absolute must-buy for fans of mixed martial arts fighting games looking for something fresh yet familiar at the same time. With its improved presentation options; expanded roster featuring all-new fighters including Conor McGregor and Ronda Rousey; along with a completely overhauled ground game system that rewards both skillful submission attempts AND strategic defensive play alike - there's never been a better reason to step into The Octagon than now!
