Makes one wonder when Mohammed Ali or a young Mike Tyson will be added to the card.

Such a blatant cash grab, he doesn't even fight anything like the real Bruce Lee. Fei Long in Street Fighter is a much classier and authentic tribute.

It is just a game.
I would imagine there are a limited number of pre-programmed moves and the "fighting" ability is related to the skills of the player.

But they are terrible games to begin with and throwing in a famous name is just a pathetic attempt to sell copies. Like I said, Capcom did it in a tasteful way and made him a part of the Street Fighter universe.
EA just ruins everything.

OP posted in fun...I agree with what Captain says but...
The UFC is the defacto MMA league of the world. They credit their roots to the style of fighting pioneered by Bruce Lee thru Jeet Kun Do. Whether we agree if UFC style of fighting is akin to Bruce Lee is obviously debatable. But the history and philosophy behind MMA is pure Bruce Lee. Anyway, their reasoning is to honour Bruce Lee, as they claimed that many MMA fighters and fans always wonder how Bruce Lee would do in the octagon.
So no, it's not supposed to be a replicate of Bruce Lee, but more a homage and reimagining of Bruce Lee as a current day MMA fighter.
