there are too many good things about this game to list...the amazing graphics which you HAVE to have an HDTV because the detail is crazy!, you have the option to create your own boxer starting from the ground up... and when i say create i mean CREATE. you can basically make the boxer look EXACTLY like you. its unbelievable to me how they do this. you also have the chance to reenact famous fights... ali-frazier, b hop-de la hoya, etc. theyve also made this slow motion knockout replay that is intense. you have to see it...its awesome AND hilarious between the ripples in the face and the sweat,spit, and blood flying from their head. the only beef that i have is as you get deeper into the game it obviously gets harder. its definatly not a button masher game. thats what i do in fighting games (because i suck at them)but you cant just go in there and press a bunch of buttons and get away with it. you actually have to block and parry. but thats a minor discrepancy. i still love this game and definatly recommend it to everyone who owns a 360.

awesome game

EA finally brings something very worthy to the table in the form of an excellent boxing game. I dont even like boxing all that much, but this game deserves a must play.

The graphics are extremely realistic for an early 360 game. The player models and cinematic view makes you feel as if you are actually there. The sweat just gleams off the boxer's realistically modeled bodies. When you're about to knock your opponent out, the game slows down,and if you connect on a good hit, the boxer receives a devastating blow and blood spews, which is great.

The gameplay itself is nicely done. You can box using the 4 buttons, or using the Total Stick Control. Both allow for smooth gameplay, and it doesnt ever feel off balance.

Overall the game deserves a must play for anyone looking for smooth boxing fun. It can get a bit tedious at times, and repetitive in the long run, but the game is too good to pass up.

Hi-Def makes this great game even better

I cant really say enough good things about this game. There are several improvements from previous versions, and they're all to the better.

The controls take a good while to get the hang of, but once you have the controls mastered thats just 1/2 the fun. The individual styles of different fighters really makes a positive impact on gameplay and contributes to replayability. After getting used to a power style where I was routinely knocking people out in 2-3 rounds, I faced a faster fighter who I could barely hit, and had to outlast him and win on points. No single style of play is going to work.

I recently added HD cables for a new HD TV and the result is amazing. The graphics were great before but they're positively spectacular now and add to the gameplay.

There's so many aspects to this game to keep you coming back. The new customization is one of the most entertaining elements. In future editions I hope the announcers have more material added to avoid repetition and add some more style. Title bouts are just treated like other bouts; I had hoped for a little more flash and fresh commentary from the announcers but no luck.

This game is a keeper for a 360 library.

Boxing in HD wow

Arcade Boxing... but still fun

If you want a Boxing simulation, this isn't the game for you. This is very much an arcade style game. However, as far as arcade boxing goes this is probably the best one since Mike Tyson's Punch Out.

The controls are intuitive and make for some furious bouts between you and your friends. The knock out camera (combined with the sound effects) will definitely get a reaction from your friends in the room when someone is knocked out. It's visceral.

However, it lacks a realistic ladder system, realistic ring-crafting, and a sense of shame (the advertisements that are plastered all over the game are pretty sickening).
