Genki Sudo in EA MMA!?

SeanyCarter · 10-22-2009, 02:04 PM

I remember reading somewhere that Genki Sudo and Sakuraba are both signed for EA MMA.

If Genki Sudo is in this game and EA actually tried to develop based on character traits, this could be quite exciting. I've always wanted to play as Genki Sudo in a game. It'd be cool if he did his taunts into spinning back fists, just like real life.

Anybody know if Genki is confirmed, or is this just a rumor?

If Genki is in, then I hope they go out of their way with entrances.

havent heard anything about him in EA-MMA really......i'd like to know more about it but genki was literally the guy who got me into MMA.....when I saw his entrances back in the day I started watching mma solely from him so yeah....the roster already sounded pretty great for the game and him in it would be a deal sealer for me

I hope they let you do the taunts he always did. That guy was the master showboater.

I am pretty sure Genki Sudo is one of the greatest fighters to watch. His retirement fight ended with him hitting a tight triangle on Damacio Page, who is a beast at 135-145. I miss Genki and always hoped he could make a comeback fight at some point just so the US fans can see who he is.

Your average MMA fan has no clue about Sudo. I hope he IS in the game, as that will sell me for sure, provided the gameplay is decent.

As for entrances, I think that should be a given, since Fight Night 4 has them. Mayhem is also in the game and he's big on entrances.

If Saku and Genki are in this game that is fucking awesome.

Sad isn't it? He even fought in the UFC 3 times, too bad it was before the UFC exploded.

it'd be fucking awesome if you could throw up flying triangles in the game, playing as saku wont be as exciting without the ability to soccer kick and stomp

The robot dance to spinning back kick would be a MUST!
