In the blue corner we have The Greatest of All Time. In the red corn... screw it. We just can't bang the mega clichéd phrasing out. What we can do is tell you we'd back Chun Li's thighs of granite in any semi fair fight. That, and we can also inform you that you should vote for The Fighting Game of the Year at this month's Golden Joystick Awards. Full details inside.

The good folk over at Official Xbox Magazine UK have not only had a fancy new redesign of their site, oxm.co.uk, but they're also delivering some LOL worthy videos to accompany it.

A new monthly video named The OXM Breakdown had us chuckling throughout and we're already looking forward to the next month's episode. So brighten up your day by clicking the play button above. WARNING: Video may contain grown man dry-humping a HD-TV.  

This new UFC Undisputed 2010 trailer may focus its attentions more on the rise to prominence of current Welterwight champ, B.J. Penn over pure gameplay footage, but we can’t help but feel excited. The snatches of the game you see make it look slicker and more visceral then before and is that a speedier bob and weave defence we spy at 1:03? Yes, yes it is. We’re going to play this very soon so expect a full hands-on in the near future.

Many people believe that football stars that are selected to grace the cover of EA's yearly Madden games are "cursed" once they appear on the game's box. Often, after showing up on the cover, players have their worst year yet, with many suffering injuries or simply failing to live up to their potential. So far, the last two fighters to show up on THQ's UFC games have suffered similar failings: the 2009 cover star, Forrest Griffin, lost his next fight to Anderson Silva in a fairly embarrassing showing. 2010's cover featured the massive, unstoppable Brock Lesnar, who... also was defeated soon after, being knocked out in the first round against Cain Velasquez. 

And now, carrying a 34-3-0 record into the Octagon is the fan's pick for UFC Undisputed 3's cover: Anderson Silva...    

THQ has released a party-sized haul of screens for the upcoming UFC Undisputed 3, and the game's attention to detail is apparent in every one of the new glimpses. Fighters drip sweat, bruise and bloody each others' pretty faces, and grimace at the receipt of a particularly palpable blow. Yes, that's real pain these digitized brawlers are feeling: this isn't professional wrestling, you know...
