Fun, For A Weekend

First off, I have to say that without Wii Motion Plus, this game isn't really an upgrade to Wii Sports Boxing. Without Wii Motion Plus, the controls are really horrible, and the Wii sensor bar only recognizes what you're doing about 50 percent of the time, so during the game, you don't feel like you're boxing, you just feel like your just randomly moving your arms around.
With Wii Motion Plus is a different story. You have so much control over where to punch and what type of punch to do, its amazing. Still, you will get pretty bored from this game after about 2 hours.
What really dissapointed me was the lack of big name stars. I mean, I don't follow boxing, but I know who people like Manny Pacquiano and Oscar De La Hoya are. Nobody in the list of characters was recognizable, and part of the fun of sports games is being your hero.
Overall, a rent at most, only if you have Wii Motion Plus.
