Here’s what Michael Bisping had to say: “I had only been in the country for an hour and the creators of the UFC game THQ, wanted me to go to there studio type thing to get straight to work. This I suppose was good as it gets it out the way, but I was knackered so I may have red eyes on the game. I had to do a full body scan for my image likeness, and then a facial scan, obviously for my facial likeness. In the face scan I had to hold several different emotions for about 30 seconds so they have different facial expressions. This sounds easy, but when you have to hold a huge smile for that long it starts to look very fake. When I looked at the results after I looked like some kind of freak but they assured me that it will look fine on the game (yeah right). Along with a happy expression I had to do confused, angry, sad, bored and surprised. Next it was to a photo shoot for the typical shots but then they wanted to shoot everything to the inside of my legs to my feet and my ass. The attention to detail on the fighter images is going to be amazing and the game is gonna look great. As long as they don’t use my freaky look from the facial scan.”

I finally had a chance to download the PS3 demo last night and this game rocks. The graphics and gameplay animations are amazing. This is sure to be a hit when it comes out on May 19th.

I hope you can flash KO someone like in the K-1 game, instead of taking their whole health bar down first. Also, on one of the UFC.com videos they showed Wanderlei getting scanned, so he’ll be in there too. Woohoo!

Why the hell would they confirm Matt Arroyo as one of the first fighters in the game … He threw his fight against Mac Danzig … I thought Dana hated him O_o
