Long ago, in the days of the Ancients, epic battles were waged shoulder-to-shoulder, not via ethernet cord.
The trash talk was real, and so was the pressure as your friends (and enemies) shouted behind you.
Whether at the Arcade or on the Couch, the intensity and visceral feeling of fighting someone in the same room is at the heart of Gaming, and is something that cannot be replaced by online matchmaking and virtual events.
With the goal of recapturing the glory days - ESFL and Virgin Media Gamepad partnered to put on the best LAN event in EA UFC 5 history - ESFL Live London!
Thank you to everyone who came out. A moment for the community that will live forever!
Congratulations @NazUFC for cleaning house and winning it all!
Finally - *HUGE* thank you to Paul, Anjali, Dan, Malcom, and the whole Gamepad Crew for making this happen!
We truly could not have pulled this off without your great partnership and you saved the day on more than one occasion.
Now....ONTO UFC 6!!
@EASPORTSUFC
Try a good idea to stop the fight man and we don't want these guys to be permanently crippled. Wow so much respect to them.....!!!
Justin it's so goddamn tough !!!!!!!!!
Ilia Topuria’s bodywork is masterful
The way he rotates into those hooks downstairs are ridiculous - credit to Justin for surviving this round #UFCWhiteHouse
@MMAFRoO@ARomeroXVII@EASPORTSUFC Game isn't totally broken out the box for the first launch ever..... So hopefully they can add some stuff and really take a deep balance too
CIRYL GANE TKO’s ALEX PEREIRA
WOW - such toughness from Poatan to try and hang in there but Ciryl Gane claims the Interim Title with a serious statement.
The Frenchman silences the White House #UFCWhiteHouse
@DoubleVodkaDon Dawg that was it.
Iron Mike was past prime when he got to the UFC. I don’t need to see him get finished by another up and comer, let the old lion rest
