makes realistic simulation of boxing. You control all the movements of your fighter, including the direction of his shots and his defense. This makes it quite complex controls, but the learning curve is not steep terrifically. There are several levels of difficulty, so you should never feel frustrated by the action.
The production values are high, especially graphics and combat arenas that create a retro feel. However, animations, and called the fight quickly become tedious, as well. Watching the flow of blood to fly a fighter falls from the mouth is fascinating was the first time I saw it, but 20th time, I found myself hitting the skip button animation several times to move to more action. The ring announcers's feedback lets you know how much damage your fighter will take, but then quickly run out of new things to say.
Unfortunately, the game is completely overrun with corporate logos. You might think that if you spend $ 60 on the game that could be free of commercials, but I'd be wrong. Using a mop fast food mascot as a coach is just too much, and this undermined the retro feel of the game.
Even with the single player game against legends like Ali and Frazier, a game best enjoyed against live competition. Smacking sense from an online opponent while taunting until the satisfaction of all their own. Also, the challenge of human opponents reduces recurrence career mode. In the end, this game is still largely a boxing junkies. If you can not remember the last time you watched boxing on TV, you'll probably get your fill of this title from a weekend rental.
