Fight Night Round 4 for myself, I had my initial worries but after some time I came to appreciate the game on many levels.
While the forth installation still has things to iron out in hopefully next Round (Troublesome and frustrating mini-games, footwork in the ring, more expansive Legacy Mode), it's still a fantastic boxing game in many respects.
I personally switched from FNR3 and it took some adjustments but it's well worth and I have no regrets.
I slightly like FNR3 better, due to the fact that it has the option to switch to button controls if i want. I don't understand why EA took that out for Rd 4. The stick control for both games never felt right for me. I can use it but I just don't enjoy playing as much. Both are fantastic boxing games, FNR4 may overall be a better game but I enjoy 3 much more.
I really like the new controls, and the physics are really good. IMO it is the most realistic boxing sim ever made. I love it. It also helps that it has such a large amount of fighters to choose and the fact that you can create them and DL ones that other peeps created.

but they are making a patch for people who prefer the button control

I thought the analog controls were one of the cooler elements of the recent Fight Night games, but I understand that you probably get a lot more precision out of button control. To be honest, with all the FNR3 I've played, I did not once try button controls.
I've been considering picking up FNR4, if for no better reason than the better boxer choices, but wasn't entirely sure it'd be worth paying another $60.
I really do not like the fact that I cannot copy my boxer files to play against my friends. I bought the software, installed it on MY machine, I should be able to manipulate my own data. It is like Microsoft not allowing you to print or copy excel files. I feel robbed.
FNR3 by a long shot....hell the PSP version of FNR3 is 10x better than the PS3 version of FNR4....all thats better on FNR4 is the graphics and im glad that theres no like same side magnet keeping the fighters from touching
