Tonight at 1 a.m. ET/PT, Spike TV’s GameTrailers TV with Geoff Keighley will unveil the first gameplay footage trailer from THQ’s UFC 2009 video game; UFC prez Dana White will be on hand to introduce the clip. 1up.com has a gallery of screen-shots for the highly-anticipated game, and a behind-the-scenes featurette with Rampage and Cheick Kongo getting their motion-capture on is after the jump.

Oh, snap!

i dont think you should be weary of gameplay, thq has come a long way and so has technology since the ps1, and so has mma which i think gives the game designers a better understanding of how a fight works than if it were years ago when it wasnt popular

The trailer looks really average. It doesnt look anywhere near as polished as fight night on the 360 looks. I used to have the dreamcast version of the UFC game and is was amazing. Hopefully this one will be just as good when it comes out.

It will be interesting to see which fighters they put in the game. I'm surprised they put fighters like Koppenhaver on there with all the roster cuts lately.

Ok so the game looks good, but allot of crappy games look good.
I want to know how it plays. It could be awesome looking and still suck pretty bad.

@ Forrest - " Don't be scared, homey...."

Surely you wrote that title to illicit this response, right? I can't believe I was the first to do it.
I'm a maverick!

Stitch and Juanito? All this time I called them "Floppy Hat Guy" and "Edward James Olmos Looking Guy".

If this games plays as good as it looks I'm never going to leave my opulently appointed apartment again.

I hope THQ has matched the dynamic nature of MMA or else this'll be another WWE game. There are so many tools they have to take into account in the ground-game. I know there'll be subtleties lost but hopefully not much. Also could be a pain in the ass control-wise if it's too complicated or not user friendly. THQ is usually good though.

Looking forward to seeing it.

Rampage is actually a genuinely funny guy. not at all ghetto trash like some fighters out there.
