IGN also has a written review up. They weren’t quite as forgiving as GamePro.com or Gametrailers.com, but I did find myself agreeing with a lot of what they said (even though I do think the game is pretty kick ass).
UFC 2009 Undisputed has its fair share of issues for an up-start franchise, but that doesn’t mean that UFC fans and non-fans alike won’t have fun with the game once they get the complexities figured out. The career mode is fun and well-designed, the combat is cool and visually engaging, and the classic fights mode is sure to please UFC aficionados. If THQ can fix the blemishes and speed things up quite a bit so the physicality and true athleticism of the sport can shine through, we could have a serious contender on our hands.
I’d like to spend a little more time with the game before laying out my impressions, but that doesn’t mean you can’t. Let us know what you think below.
Update: Gamespot.com has their review up.

why the hell does it make you retire after the first year is there any way to resign the contract to keep playing
If there is, I never figured it out. I agree, it is stupid.
