| Summary: Nice original game
90
This game remind me of the old NES/SNES classic Super Punchout. It plays about the same (it isn't a free roaming fighter). You hit with punch right or left and leg right or left, you dodge with the d-pad just like in super punchout. There are a couple of super moves and throws as well.
The main interest I had in the game is seeing if they screwed up that money gambling thing. I gotta say it's pretty cool though. It's about making the crowd believe you're going to loose, then place your bets after 50 sec of faking and start your come back. All of that without losing too much to avoid making the crowd supsicious. You can also fake to take a punch harder so the crowd places bets agaisnt you and then come back. Well that wasnt a really good description but that's about it.
Another point of interest in the game is the customization. At first I was disapointed by the number of options. I finnaly ended up with a pretty decent character. And I kept upgradin my style by buying new items in the shop.
After a couple of fights (and killing your female manager) you get to start your own crew. This takes place by choosing 2 character in a lineup of randomized characters. You can also customize your combos which is a pretty nice feature. Simple but it works for me.
Another important part of the customisation is leveling up your basic attribute. You do that by selecting which kind of training you want to do before your next fight. For exemple I have 6 weeks before the fight, then i'll have 6 training sessions (which can also be rest time or hospital visit). Each choice I make enhaces some attribute and reduces another so you'll have to balance things out. But don't worry, it's simple enough.
I have to say I really like this game. It has a nice Punchout flavor with great customisation options and a nice little story mode. Maybe a rent first for some gamers due to its originality and its one dimensional (only fighting) style. I haven't tried multiplayer, but if you can bet money it'll be a load of fun I'm sure. And if your the kind to worry about graphics, they're pretty damn good.
I want to congratulate the developers for creating an innovative game! I give this game a 90 but with a warning: not for every gamer.
