UFC Undisputed 2010

15 cert, THQ, PS3 (also Xbox 360) ***

Here's mixed martial arts as you've (possibly) never experienced before. Like all sports games, UFC Undisputed 2010suffers from a degree of separation – it'll never quite replicate the real thing. But it will certainly give you a better idea of the skill and effort that goes in to executing the moves.

The career mode is engaging, allowing you to create your fighter and begin your career as an amateur before working your way up to the higher echelons of the sport. Train your fighter carefully; your choices can improve your conditioning, but also affect fatigue levels, and with a showdown in the Octagon looming, you need to be at your best.

The gameplay has been improved over the last outing, with new modes to help you dodge attacks and finish fights decisively.
