when i first started playing this I did not know what to think. The graphics are very bad and the controls are different than newer fps. The controls are very tight and you turn slowly and the auto aim locks on to an enemy. But after playin this game for a little while I have grown to like it a lot.

(PROS)

-It has a lot of action and is very gory. Enemies heads and limbs will fly clean off when you blast them. Bullets leave pretty realistic holes in people, and when you slash people with knives it actually leaves slash marks. Also people react realistic when shot, for example, if you blast some1's leg off they will fall down to the grown clutching it. The screams of anguish by your enemies fit in well too.

-theres a good variety of weapons

-difficulty is just right

(CONS)

-besides the gore the graphics are terrible, this game did come out in 2001tho so its expected, but in some instances you will find yourselves lost because rooms are very similar looking. Sometimes you cant see the enemy at all because they are too far away , but they can still shoot you. Also sometimes you need to find a specific area to jump to or wall to shoot to continue on, but the graphics make it hard to tell what you are able to interact with.

-loading times kinda annoying. You can save anytime in a level , but when you die and have to reload from your last save it takes just as long to load as it did when you first started the level.

- also frame rate drops pretty noticeably when there's more than 2 or 3 enemies on screen

(MULTIPLAYER)

Suprisingly this game has split screen multiplayer with bots. I tried it out but the frame rate slows down so much that its very hard to aim so I doubt you would play this for very long, but I must give this 2001 game props for having a bot multiplayer.


So if you are the type of person who can appreciate a classic fps and can overlook some very dated graphics you should pick up this game. Also fans of gory games will absolutely love playing this (like me hehe) This game is dirt cheap now , so theres no harm in picking up a copy and trying it . Also this game has great replayability. The second time through was just as entertaining as the first for me.

A pretty good shooter with a good replay value. There are about 15 missions, and they have medals you can win and the game is fun enough that you will want to go back throughout the game to win them. Getting medals unlocks new weapon upgrades so its worth it to do. In this game you take on a bunch of crazy gang members in hockey masks. I really liked the emphasis on head shots on this game. Every time you get one it announces it and makes a cool sound. Also if you are close enough their entire heads will explode. Another great thing in the game is that every once in awhile when you kill an enemy the death animation goes into slow motion, and its very entertaining to watch. In this game you use a riot shield to block bullets, melee attacks and explosions. It is a unique aspect to gameplay that is very fun. You can even smash the riot shield into their faces if they are close.

Also this game has a online multiplayer that is still active, so its worth buying just for that. Ive only played the mutliplayer for a little bit but it was fun. You can have a buddy list and can send game invites.Plus this game is about 20 bucks used at gamestop.

I havent played any other gba boxing gams so i cant make any comparisons. But this game is a fun pick up and play boxing game. I never play it for more than like 20 mins at a time. But its pretty fun for a short amount of time every once in awhile.

Its from the first person perspective so u just see ur boxing gloves floating around and the other person. You can block high or low. So the main strategy is to try to punch the person in the area where they are not blocking. Each character has different speeds and combos , and learning combos is important to being good.

The game has a mode where u fight for a title belt. you fight a bunch of people until u get to the championship round. There are a few different difficulty modes.

Also this game has a survival mode which is what I usually play. Opponents are weaker than in the other mode and once you knock them down once they are knocked out(compared to getting knocked down 3 times before a ko in the other mode). You see how many fighters you can take out before you get knocked down once. The fighters get progressively harder as you go along.

The game also has some random bosses you can get passwords to fight by beating parts of the game. (An example is some crazy 4 armed guy that has 2 arms that can punch u from the top and 2 that can punch ur midsection)

.... This game wont keep you glued to it for long periods of time. But on the go or if u wanna get a quick fun game in before u gotta go somewhere this game is a good choice. If you can find it in a bargain bin somewhere definitely pick it up if u enjoy simple arcade boxing games
