Its alrady got A- at 1up.com
Everywhere I go people moan about no face buttons being used. And they claim it is bad without even trying to learn how to play. Its just so funny because they want to spam buttons to get a 1st round KO, which is very rare in true boxing.
Besides most boxing games that use buttons have been dreadful crap. Remember KO Kings? It used buttons yet was a terrible boxing game. There is alot I am not gonna mention due to bringing up painful memories playing those games.
Thankfully that fake 3 second freeze parry has been removed. You could not throw a decent combo with that parry. You were limited to just 3 or 4 punches before your opponent snaps out of his freeze frame. Boxers dont move like that in real life and yes parries to happen but they dont stand still getting pounded. It is just a quick block that pushed a punch away.
Now since most of you are hardcore gamers, your joy should be in learning a new control scheme and learning new things across various games. Right? It will be sad if even a casual gamer who is into boxing is able to get the hang of it while hardcores complain about it.
Its a great boxing game and better than UFC.
