Boxing [U] ISO
Description :
Boxing is a Boxing game, developed by Nekogumi and published by A1 Games, which was released in 2001.
I will admit, the cover art for this budget game can be a little
misleading, seeing two pugilists who might resemble classic heavyweights
slugging it out, only to discover that it's a cartoonish anime-inspired
type game, with comical moves and characters. With the simple but
effective controls, arcade style of gameplay, and difficulty that's
challenging but not too challenging, you might say it's..well, um..how
about Sony PlayStation's Punch-Out!!
Graphics: 9/10
The characters are rendered with an anime-style, slightly super-deformed look to them. Their attacks are well animated, and they even have some facial animations for when they go down, when they win, or for when they lose. There aren't much choices for backgrounds, as you can choose a sparring gym or a packed arena, but not much else.
Sounds: 5/10
The music, unfortunately, sounds like it came out of a circus, with a few exceptions that I did enjoy. There are no voice overs for the characters or even a referee of some kind. You will hear the sound of your punches landing, and the crowd cheers when a person goes down or loses the match.
Controls: 10/10
Simple, yet effective. One button punching with directional and other buttons combined to do more punches. Even the special punch is universal, with each character having their own type of attack (one boxer actually slaps you silly several times for her special attack!) There's even the ability to view the boxers' various bios where they teach you how to perform the various attacks. If that isn't cool, then I don't know what is!
Replay: 10/10
You start with only a few boxers. To unlock more, you must go through the championship mode to rank in at higher titles so you can challenge the higher ranked boxers and unlock them. As you play through the championship mode, you must remember that how you box determines how well your boxer does in the long run. This is important, because if they go too long, they will eventually have to retire. Be advised that some of these boxers can be rather tough at first, so be thankful there's an exhibition mode where you can learn the ropes!
Overall: 8/10
Despite some misleading cover art, and some corny parts in the sound department, Boxing proves that even budget games with simple titles aren't all that bad. If you're on a budget and want to try sparring with some cartoony opponents, then this is one boxer that you probably can't go wrong with, especially with a challenge that's just right for everyone. It may not be a knockout, but it still wins by decision!
