Considering the success of the first title, it's not a surprise that THQ just announced UFC Undisputed 2010. The game will makes its premiere, as reported, at the Spike TV Video Game Awards this Saturday. 

Spike has released a teaser trailer for the game, and it doesn't reveal much other than confirming that it's an Ultimate Fighting game. You know, dudes kicking, punching, and grappling one another. The first-ever gameplay footage of UFC Undisputed 2010 will be "introduced through a special UFC guest appearance," whatever that means. Very mysterious. 

The Spike TV 2009 Video Game Awards airs on Spike TV this Saturday, December 12 at 8:00 PM Eastern. We'll be there (or here, or both places) covering the big reveals and winners, so keep your eyes peeled.

Bought the first one, won't pick up this one. I really do not see picking up a new sports game every year for a few new features for $60. Maybe next generation, haha.

I hate the analogs for submissions. So annoying. I also hated them in Fight Night. Surprisingly, I enjoyed skate.

Yay! An announcement of an announcement!

I think I've posted enough on these UFC & EA MMA stories as is, so I'll just leave it at this: Can't wait to get my hands on both of them.

I watched my half-brother play UFC 2009 and I've got to say, it is hilarious watching it, since you can rip on the fact that all their special martial arts training means absolutely fuck all when they spend 5 minutes homo-erotically grabbing each other on the ground right on top of a giant Harley-Davidson logo. So, if nothing else, a new UFC game will provide more laughs.

@Syko-You know, the ground portion requires specific types of martial arts training, too. You just don't understand what's going on.

Also, there's no reason to think this will essentially be the same as last year's game. Madden's been around forever- they've run out of ways to dramatically improve. This is only the 2nd UFC game by THQ, there's a ton of shit they can improve.

Are you shitting me? I hate UFC and all wrestling and wrestling-esque sports but even I know there's a lot more to it than grabs.

Get into a cage fight and call me. I think you've been watching too many movies.

If you think UFC is homoerotic, you need to grow up. There is nothing sexual about what they're doing.

Probably going to jump on the Smackdown Vs Raw train and release a new game, with no new enhancements, every year. Each year gets you 1-2 new fighters, YAY!

I'm just commenting on the visual aspect of the damn thing, jeez. Have someone who doesn't know about UFC or MMA or any of that stuff walk in on another person playing a UFC game or watching a UFC match on TV and tell me they don't think it's a bit off.

My eldest brother brother brought by his copy of UFC during a visit out to my place, and hyped this game to hell and back. I sat down to play it with him, and he beat me horribly, mostly because myself and the roomy couldn't stop laughing at how homo-erotic this game looked during battles. And YES, I have watched the UFC on several occasions, and know just how crazy it can get, although I think this game was a horrible representation of the sport. Hopefully they can really up the ante with the next one, and make it look like less of a silly slap-fight match...

The first was a great game. Here's hoping they make it look better this time.

If they don't dramatically change up the gameplay, I'm just going to get EA Sports MMA... aka "everything that UFC 2009 should have been."

@Kalmah: It's only the second title and there are several obvious improvements to be made upon a solid first attempt.

@SykoShadow: If the person is in their teens, I wouldn't be surprised.

Here's the preview I'm basing my expectations on, certainly the most detailed: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/104/1043350p1.html

"The animation work is also very impressive. We were shown a leg kick at the beginning of a fight and a leg kick several minutes in after plenty of damage had been inflicted and the reaction was totally different. At first Fedor was able to take the kick without budging, but once he took a few more, one leg kick was able to send him reeling, thus opening the door for a takedown."

Oh noes, my Rampage Jackson create-a-fighter is doom! BUWAHAHAHA...
