This game is pretty old and is still a fantastic game. Gameplay and control is very solid and the graphics are phenomenal.
Punches connect with bone-shattering realism: faces wobble, knees buckle, and eyes roll back. The ability to create a boxer and go through the ranks, fighting some famous opponents along the way, is an added treat.Gameplay:The controls are tough at first, but you'll get the hang of it; after some practice, the controls become second nature and very powerful. The career mode should have been thought out better.For the current price, however, I'd highly recommend this one to boxing fans or couch potatoes--like me--looking to flex some digital muscle. They sweat, bleed, and get visibly tired. During career mode, you get to train before each fight to improve your boxer's attributes. The explosive sounds can make you cringe at times. If your reputation is high enough, tougher boxes will offer a contract to fight you.
You gain reputation with each victory, but no rank or other indication of your position overall. It seemed a bit. I enjoy games with customization, so the ability to shape his face and body was entertaining.Graphics & Sound:Fantastic on both counts. The game is fun, easy to learn, and addicting to play. The analog stick is used to throw most punches.In addition to the classic career mode, there is a multiplayer mode and a single, quick-fight type of mode. The boxers look real--not perfect, but realistic.
The environments are beautiful and appropriate.Value:The game loses a star on this one; after fifty or so matches I was spent. magoo to me. Fight Night delivers on visceral, entertaining, realistic boxing action. This is great: the game improves as your boxer does, allowing you to tackle tougher opponents and actually get tougher yourself.Creating a boxer and guiding his career is fun and rewarding. There is no sense of ranking or progress in this game.
You can also pick which trainer you'd like after you accumulate enough wealth.Overall, a very in-depth, solid effort from EA Sports. As you progress in your career, the fights get bigger, the matches more challenging, and the purses worth more for the winner. But, for now, this game won't make you long for that particular installment to release. Fight Night Round 3 is yet another good effort from EA Sports, and their dominance over sports-related gaming.We all know EA Sports from the Madden series, the Tiger Woods golf series, and so on, but they make a very good boxing game as well.The game includes many of the older fighters such as Ali, Frazier, and Patterson; also features some of today's fighters - examples being Roy Jones Jr., Oscar De La Hoya, and various others.The career mode in this game steals the show. You can customize your boxer every which way, including fighting style, appearance, and individual boxing traits such as speed, agility, strength, stamina that make your boxer unique. They (EA Sports) have a tough challenge on their hands trying to top this third installment of the Fight Night series.
you like playing two player games against your friends. this is the game for you.
very good game, i hope they make a new one. controls are good but you can configure the controller to use the yxba or the sticks.
I had this on the ps2 and had to get it for the 360, the graphics are amazing. you can create a boxer and go thru a career in your weight class.
you like boxing. like kicking ***.
no mike tyson or lynnox lewis but there is day la hoya, holyfield, ali, sugar ray leonard, as well as many others.
Its the best around. Its one of EA's best titles on the market. This is game that is a must own for boxing fans. It has its tough moments but overall its just a good game.
