Rating: - Very good
This game is similar to the old Mike Tyson Punch Out. It's a little hard at first, but after a while you get the technique down and you can win. Use your jabs a lot, watching your stamina meeter (green one) and remember to cover up/dodge the punches when your stamina is low. Save the upper cuts for when you really need to put the opponent away. I scored a KO in the first round once, which is pretty tough to do (there was 1 second left). The computer players have special moves (while you don't, just like MTPO) and you need to cover up or duck from those moves to win against the tougher opponents. It would get 5 stars if there was more depth to the game and the opponents were more real, they look more like cartoon characters than boxers. I also wish they let you pick the type of character you can be (you are white with green hair).
Rating: - Descent game
I bought this game thinking it is going to be just like mike tyson's punchout for nes. Actually, the gameplay is quite similar, but the main difference is that there is a stamina meter that runs out after a few consecutive punches, which [is bad]. However, you'll hate the game at first, but after you get used to it, it is quite fun and challenging. Oh yeah, the graphics and music I would consider to be average. Overall, it is a descent game.
Rating: - Superb title!
Although Punch King is already being overlooked, it is one of the funnest boxing games I've ever played. Is it like Punch out? You bet. Only now it's enhanced and portable. The signature boxing moves remain, the sound is fantastic and this game's quite a challenge. I'm very impressed.
