from eBay Summary:
My entire life's boxing experience consists watching each Rockie movie about 20 times (read my Rutgers Thesis: Everyhting I ever need to know I learned from Rocky-It got an A). My Video game Boxing Experience consists of beating Mike Tyson's Punchout in the 5th Grade (that was 1990) and none since.
I am not a fan of fighting games, I have played little of them since Street Fighter 2. I got this game to kill time between baseball seasons.
I will tell you that this game is an amazing representation of the "Sweet Science". The controls are amazing, and revolutionary...in a a word- Perfect. You use the R-stick to either point jabs and straights or hooks and uppercuts...while using the left stick to gyrate, shuck and jive and block.
The graphics are amazing, the knockdown animations are amazingly real and the character models of the deep roste of fighters are frighteningly realistic. And you can see blood and sweet fly off both fighters during a match and damage is accruately modelled to eacher fighter's face and body.
This is according to everyone the best boxing videogame ever made...I can tell you its a ton of fun and there is a lot of hours to be played here. The Career mode lets you use an established name and likeness or a deep create-a-fighter mode and uses mini-games like sparring, heavy bag work, combo dummies and others to boost your very meager stats all while selecting your fights and trying to move up the ranks from 50th to Champion in a given weight class. You have a 20-year career per fighter before you retire, and Year-end awards are given for best fighter, most punches, greatest fight of the year, etc. Each "year" consists of about 3 or 4 bouts.
