After a few days, how do you feel about Prizefighter?

[CaptainZombie]

Please no trolling, but how do you seriously feel about this game after a few days and do you see yourself holding on to it?

It seems like a lot of people are happy, while others aren't. I am in the middle, there are things I like and things I dislike.

I agree with you 100%: there are things I like and things I don't.
I will be holding on to it until another boxing game comes along, cause even with its faults it still is a very good representation of the sport and is fun.

For a first installment it could have been more polished. Its a pretty fun game for me, i played it until about 3am lastnight. I got stuck on it. hah.

I think they have a good foundation and are able to tweak a few things and give more freedom in the career mode. I actually like it, and i dont ever do career/franchise stuff in sports game. I am a online gamer.

I think I'll get 50+ hours of entertainment out of it so it was worth it to me.

There are alot of things this game could have done better, but I'm not going to list them because I have elsewhere.

I like the Fight Night Series better, except for round 3 because they scrapped the rankings. I'm an open career mode guy so while I appreciate the Stroy Mode in PF, its not my cup of tea.

That being said, I am really liking the 1:30 rounds because the matches are the perfect length for me and I'm seeing fights go the distance now.

The game is challenging on the medium difficulty which is nice. I love a challenge and look forward to replaying on the hardest mode.

Right now my record is 13-3-0 with 10 KO's. Only one of my losses came by KO. So I have had 5 fights go to the cards.

Thats about it. I will say though that if you don't take the time to learn how to play this, the game will be horrible. It will feel like Rock 'Em Sockem Robots and it will feel stiff. Learn all the controls and its a good but not great representation of boxing.

Overall, the game will tide me over until FNR4 comes along. I can't wait for that game.

I agree, I was too hard for me to get used to cause I played FN like a religion but I'm slowly getting the hang of it.

Biggest Gripe: The boxers don't always do what I want them to at the right time and it causes me to get knocked around a lot. As well the boxers punch to fast for the slow foot speed.

Biggest Positive: The career mode is actually fun, I look forward to training(hard but fun) and booking matches.. The fights are fun and ill be playing this online quite often till FN4 then Ill have two fun games to play :P

Online it's great and worth $60 easily. Though the online features are certainly lacking, but it's still fun to fight online. Offline, I personally don't like fighting against the CPU much at all.

Talk about two extremes. Whether in career or exhibition mode (although exhibition mode has fewer knockdowns) the pace is Hearns-Hagler ,while the online mode is essentially a contest about landing the most punches per round. (Within 3 punches is a 10-10 round). That being said this imperfect game turns into a boxing chess match even against cheesers who stand in the middle of the ring pumping out their jabs and crosses, privy to the fact they will not be penalized for lower connect percentage. Their immediate stamina takes a little hit, which will slow their speed down a little.

Re: After a few days, how do you feel about Prizefighter?

i am enjoying it, but as someone said a little more polish would have helped a ton.

a few things to work on:
1. they really need to work on the physics of punches being landed and the effect(recovery and balance) it has on the opponent.

2. work on movement -needs to be a little more free flowing with variation in styles, ali,tyson, hearns,whitaker,mayweather,hopkins..etc.. all had different types of movement the game should represent this.

3.stamina..a fighters punch stamina should not drop in the 1st round the same way it does in the 9th.

...i have more but i just wanted to put a few things out that really need addressing.

even with these issues i am enjoying the game.

I still stand by my solid 7.5. Some things that are great, some things that are awful, and a lot of it is average.

I finished the career and had fun, but won't be touching it again.

I have had a blast everytime I have played online and if it continues, I will keep it. If not, it will be sold.

Re: After a few days, how do you feel about Prizefighter?

I'm enjoying it alot. I haven't played online yet, so my opinion may change once I put it through the paces of multi player - sorta the way I grew to hate NBA2K8 when I witnessed all of garbage thats capable in that game.
