Hey Gamespot worshippers it's official...

Punch Out!! Wii>>Fight Night Round 4

Fight Night could not simulate it's way out of this butt kicking. The forces of Ali,Tyson,Foreman,Leonard, and Frazier combined could not avoid the deadly magic punches,triple star uppercuts, and disco flurries. :lol:

Wii has the best game featuring characters with boxing gloves and it's not even a boxing game.:lol:

Punch Out has me contemplating a Wii. But comparing these is like comparing a water gun fight to a live fire exercise.

You can beat every Fight Night single player campaign by button mashing. Try doing that in any Punch Out!! game and see what happens. So, it's more like comparing an addictive, creative, fun for everyone game, to a boring, un-inspired, button masher

TC you can't really button mash in FN4 since you use the analog stick to fight. Of course you wouldn't know that since you haven't played the game LOL. I can't anything about Punch Out since I haven't played it but it does look like a good title.

It doesn't matter how you control it. Playing the computer in Fight Night games requires minimal strategy at best.

I can't think of too many sport games or even fighters that require any kind of strategy outside of Virtua Fighter titles.

You are comparing a Party game vs a sports game!!!

And Fight Night is way better than Punch Out if you are a boxing fan and know at least a little about boxing!

No. I am comparing a good game to a better game. I don't care about sports, that's why PO!! wins in the end. It can pull in sports fans and non-sports fans.

Punch Out = the same pattern based, timing based, learn and play type game I played almost 20 years ago.

Fight Night = a modern sports sim, with real physics, damage, movement, motion, and results.

Punch Out is old and stale... at least Fight Night brings new ideas to the table to keep the gende fresh to compete with UFC.

Sorry Wii fanboys, but Punchout is not a sports game, its a party game at best, simon says mini game at worst.

Hey Wii fans.... wanna play some UFC online? ohhh... thats right..... you can't.....

Sorry for being such an a$$ but this thread was worth it.

Fight Night = a modern sports sim, with real physics, damage, movement, motion, and results. Are those the reasons why it scored higher?

Punch Out is old and stale... at least Fight Night brings new ideas to the table to keep the gende fresh to compete with UFC. Punch Out!! is timeless. What credible source said the game was stale? Good luck finding that.

Sorry Wii fanboys, but Punchout is not a sports game, its a party game at best, simon says mini game at worst. Read and comprehend my original post better to understand why this sentence is a waste of net space.

Hey Wii fans.... wanna play some UFC online? ohhh... thats right..... you can't.....Have fun playing PO!! on you're PS3/360.

Sorry for being such an a$$ but this thread was worth it. Try harder next time.

Oh lawl at thinking reviewers have same standards for 360/ps3 and wii. If compared side to side FNR4 would dominate PO in all categories if they were comparable. However one is on the wii which is insuperior as a console to 360/ps3 in terms of hardware (only thing is the motion controls) So reviewers have to take that into account otherwise every wii game would be docked for lacking graphical prowess, as well as tight controls, or a solid multiplayer. Anyway Gamespot is not the place for solid reviews, it has a bad track record of bad reviewers making bad calls. If you look at the overall average of reviews from critics across the board, both games have the same rating. So go back to playing your insuperior party game TC with all your little friends, and tell them how great PO i.

Yeah, that's the whole point. It can't be pigeon holed into one category, but the most common label that gets slapped on it is "puzzler with boxing theme".

TC have you played Fight Night 4? It isn't as bad as you make it out to be. As for the scores of Punch Out and FN4 I can care less. I don't let scores decide what title I find better.

I have played both games and while punch out is fun for awhile it gets old, especially when i have been playing the super nintendo version for the past 2 years on my laptop. It doesnt really do much different then the old ones except that the opponents switch up their attacks from time to time making it a little bit tricky.

FNR4 im on the wall about. i loved the 3rd one and was gung ho about buying it right away when it came out but after playing it for an hour or two (my friend has it) im not so sure i want to buy it anymore. The graphics are amazing and the new physics engine is great but there is wayyyyy too much emphasis on counterpunching. I could outland an equal opponent 100 to 20 but if they have all counter punches they do an inordinate amount of damage.

Not to mention alot of the boxer rankings are really off base. They have pacquiao rated only 1 point better than miguel cotto that is ridiculous, any real boxing fan knows that the pac man is alot better than Cotto and the game should show this. Not to mention inside fighters have a much better chance to win fights than outside boxers do.

In the old fight nights i could outbox anyone and stay away from damage and dance if i so chose to but not so much in this new iteration. The emphasis is on inside body punching and counter punching. Also jabs dont do much of anything. Wow this trned out to be more anti fight night then i thought. But with that said the 2 games should have scored equally.

Ahh... The days of ye' old System Wars are long and gone. It wasn't too many years ago that Cows, Lemmings, Hermits and Sheep ran around claiming that "something had been owned" at the slightest pin drop.. Everything on this board is now crushed under Moderation...

Thanks for the input. I really like the "Forum Nazi" platform you are promoting.
