The Good: Soundtrack? The games fairly polished (for an EA game).
The Bad: The game in general. I think they marketed this game as a goofy boxing game when in reality its nothing more then rail shooter by which I mean you can't go into this game with your own style, you're forced to fight each match in a curtain way, think Punch Out.
The game requires you exploit patterns in every fighter and not in the "he favors low punches w/ his right hand way so keep an eye out for that". I am talking he counters, you counter his counter in which he counters your counter of his counter in which you counter his counter of your counter of his counter, just to get a punch in.
Don't want to follow a stupid formula to win? Tough, even on easy this game is frustratingly hard, don't time stuff right and you'll pay every time. All that makes up 90% of the games incredibly low amount of fights, about 12 matches altogether
Rated: 1 out of 10
If your looking for an arcade fighter go with Street Fighter 4 or Fight Night Round 4 if your looking for a real boxing game, this game sucks and belongs on the Wii.
WARNING, This game has been know to induce your controller to fly out of your hands in a fit of rage and frustration.
