Fight Night Champion is the first Boxing game EA Sports created with the title Fight Night. Fight Night Champion is a boxing game developed by EA Canada, which is a branch from the original company EA. This game was just recently released on March 1, 2011. The reason I chose this game to do a review on it because I am a video game player myself and I wanted to see if this game had what it took for me to go out of my way and pick it up.
I personally love all the Fight Night boxing games and personally think that this one won’t have a problem topping them all. This game has a boxing roster that has 50 licensed boxers including Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Joe Frazier, George Foreman, Oscar De La Hoya, and Evander Holyfield. If you know a lot about boxing or somewhat follow the old classic boxers, than this game is for you. This game has 3 main game play fighting modes that will give you the full professional boxing experience. There is Fight Now, which is the main basic Quick Play match where you can just jump in and Fight. Also there is the new Champion mode they just added this year. It revolves around a storyline which follows a boxer named Andre Bishop. Most other modes, such as Legacy Mode (the career mode of the series), which allows you to create your own boxer or start from scratch from a pre-existing boxer and try to rise to the top, are expected to return.
This game is a lot different than any other game EA Sports makes. The kind of games EA Sports makes is all the most popular sports that are watched, also they are typically rated E for everyone. Games the EA Sports makes is Madden which is NFL football, NCAA Football, NBA Elite formally known as NBA Live, Tiger Woods Golf. The only sports game they don't make is baseball which 2K sports has the rights to. The target audience for this game is violent audiences. This game is rated M for mature for blood, suggestive themes, strong language, and violence. This isn't your typical game for your 7 year old.
This game plays a big role in the EA Sports community. EA Sports is known for creating other very popular titles including Madden, NCAA Football, NBA Live who recently changed its name to NBA Elite, and other sports titles. This title though is distinct. It has a different style than all of the other games that have created. It is probably one of the best games I have seen for “total control” of your player.
Fight Night has a reputation of a game that never has flaws. It is always so smooth and precise you actually think the fighters are really people that you are controlling. And Fight Night Champion didn’t fail to meet the reputation of the Series. All of the critics loved this game. Fight Night Champion for a B+ from 1up.com, 4 ½ stars from GamePro, and 8/10 from IGN. This game did not fail to meet the Expectations. Watch the video below to get a good idea of the game play and how real it looks and feels while you play it.
After doing further research on this game and seeing the scores it got from all the critics that I think it is safe to say that this game is a fine bet to add to your video game collection. With all of the total control punches and all of the features that come with that game, I’m sure you will not be disappointed spending your money on this.
I learned form doing this blog post is that this game is made to take your anger out on somebody. From watching all the videos and reviews, it looks like a good game to "kick somebody's ass" in. The blood looks so real and i think if this game was on HD, it would seem like your watching a PPV boxing event.
