The trailers for the new EA Sports boxing game ‘Fight Night Round 4′ look amazing and according to the review from influential video game site IGN the game doesn’t disappoint:

I’ll first provide a short-and-sweet answer to the question above: Fight Night Round 4 delivers the best pure boxing ever seen in a videogame. Once you’re in the ring it’s an experience that no other game can provide and it is, in a word, fantastic. Punches fly at an alarming rate, boxers move around the ring while cascading light from flash bulbs streaks across their bodies. Punches land with thunderous sound effects and cuts and bruising are soon to follow. Everything in the ring is driven by the new physics engine and it’s very nearly flawless. There are a few moments when punches that don’t appear to make contact still register as a hit, but these moments are few and far between and don’t overly hurt the experience.
