I may very well pick up FN4 sometime soon then.
I also may download the career version of MPire but I downloaded Wrestling Revolution to my laptop a couple of months ago and it ran kinda slow.

I loved Fight Night Round 2. I was always afraid to pick up Fight Night Round 3 and 4 because they changed the controls to analog and I was afraid I'd hate it. I don't like use analog sticks unless it's to look around or move. I know that I hate the analog controls. I'm certain of this because when FNR4 was released they eliminated button controls altogether, and I was forced to play that way for a while. Fortunately enough people bitched that they released a patch to reinstate face button control and continued including them as a regular feature in Fight Night Champion. If you're holding back because of the analog thing, you don't need to. Seriously, if you haven't played FN4 or FNC (the latter especially) you're really missing out, they're outstanding boxing games. |

My computer for some reason won't let me have both editions on my computer. Since I'm playing matches in the Management edition anyways, I might as well keep the Career Edition instead, lol. This is video of the version that I've got, I can't remember what the regular game looks like. |

How exactly do you install the mods?

How exactly do you install the mods? No clue. Mine is an all-in one installer, all the custom wrestlers and logos and stuff are already there. |

You can add characters in yourself without modding too, can't you? If so, I may like do something major with this game when I download that mod. I'm quite enjoying it.

I'm not sure, I think the game comes as a standard, core assortment of content and then you can add one of the official mods that Mat supplies on his page or find a homemade one like the one that I have.
You CAN alter things like the title screen, menu music, wrestler themes, logos, backgrounds, and stuff like that, but as for adding characters I don't know how that's done without technically "modding" the game. If you mean some kind of plug-and-play site where there are a bunch of other characters to download and add to the game, then maybe. I don't know of one though.
Unless all that you mean is creating more roster members with the in-game CAW menu in which case yes, you can add more characters to the game.

I didn't know if you could save those characters though and use them in story mode. Also, I decided to go with TWC 4. My only problem is that there's no windowed version again, lol. |

The Fight Night series is awesome. Champion is pretty good too, it has an entertaining(albeit super generic) story mode. I personally liked Round 4 the best.

Hmm, I think mine can be windowed but I don't quite recall. It's been a while, I need to get back into that game. My last character was "Smooth B", a white guy for whom that name didn't make any particular sense. The Fight Night series is awesome. Champion is pretty good too, it has an entertaining(albeit super generic) story mode. I personally liked Round 4 the best. I think my favorites were Fight Night 2004 and then Champion. For its time though, FNR3 was amazing. I think the only one that I didn't really love was Round 4, first because of the initial lack of face button control and then because it seemed that I couldn't switch to the hard difficulty without the game thinking that by "hard' I wanted "cheap" and constantly killing me with instant-knockout haymakers. |

I hated Champion edition. It was ridiculous how much they jacked up the difficulty for no apparent reason.

I never actually went through the whole career, I mainly just played loads of one-off exhibition bouts. I didn't find it particularly difficult, at least not in relation to a couple of the other games. Though I wouldn't be surprised if they never fixed the "high difficulty equals incredibly cheap instant knockouts" feature.

I never played anything but the demo... but I owned 4 at the time, and I can assure you that Championship was MUCH more difficult than FNR4, or at least the demo was. I was able to pretty readily beat down anyone and everyone in FNR4, and in Championship I couldn't win a match to save my life. It was literally a KO within 3 rounds every single time.

I honestly don't know how that is. I struggle in 4, but with Champion I can usually beat Ali using Butterbean on the highest difficulty. |

I really liked the analog stick system. Maybe, but what I do know is that the jab is far and away more important in Champion from what I can remember. |
