the_bowman Posted 19 June 2009 Share Posted 19 June 2009 Not played since Round 2, but I remember how much I enjoyed it, and I'm taking up boxing again so I thought I'd give it a try. Tried the demo and I love it, it's not just an other button masher, it actually takes technique and a boxing mind. Anyone else played it or a fan?

MarkDeVries Posted 19 June 2009 Share Posted 19 June 2009 Im currently playing round 3. Round 4 looks great and i will be getting it as soon as its out. I was so disappointed with 4. Having played the demo, I just found it alot more boring and overall just average. Too much hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burger Posted 19 June 2009 Share Posted 19 June 2009 I was so disappointed with 4.Having played the demo, I just found it alot more boring and overall just average. Too much hype. But it's not out yet We've only got to play 3 rounds, with welterweights. I've pre ordered it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkDeVries Posted 19 June 2009 Share Posted 19 June 2009 But it's not out yet We've only got to play 3 rounds, with welterweights. I've pre ordered it Fair point. However, the demo is their to be judged whether you want to buy the game or not surely? Therefore, from the demo, what I have seen, I have not liked.

Therefore, from the demo, what I have seen, I have not liked. Backatcha with the good points I'm hoping that as the rounds progress and the fighters become more tired, the action will become more tactical as you won't be able to throw as many punches without a rest. I've also put my faith in the promise of the fighters having strong individual qualities and abilities. I think if they deliver on these points, I will be happy with the product, as will many other boxing fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_bowman Posted 26 June 2009 Author Share Posted 26 June 2009 I've been playing a fair bit, and I'm very impressed. I love the legacy mode, although I think fighting for money would improve it slightly - to buy new gear etc. Being able to download boxers is good too - I've got Rocky Balboa, Apollo Creed and Chuck Norris on mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
