Played on PCSX2
I hate this game and Iove this game.
The cutscenes and whole story is super bare-bones, and your coach constantly repeats lines, cutscenes are constantly reused, just pretty shit.
The animations and everything are great and this game has so much potential with it, but the controls are just so fucking awkward. Even after you understand everything it will still have you moving how you don't want to. The game sometimes just won't let you go backwards, or let you move left or right. It's so frustrating.
This game is on the cusp of being one of the best boxing games ever, but the controls are just so fucking annoying and awkward it ruins the entire game. I've boxed for about 5 years IRL at the time of writing this review, and this game is not realistic, I've heard so many people say this game is super realistic and it isn't at all.
I got very far in and I beat an extremely hard boxer, was losing my fucking mind, then I beat him and the game freezes and I have to do it all over again. Nope, I'm done.
I suggest looking at this game as it's one of the most unique boxing games I've ever played, but god it's just so fucking frustrating at times.
Side note, this is due to the emulation and not the actual game, but there is constant freezing where I have to keep restarting the game, and the music randomly cuts out.
