Fight Night Round 2Strengths: controls, graphics, customization, slow-motion knockouts Weakness: none Boxing fans rejoice! This game has it all. If you liked Fight Night 1 you will love Round 2. Round 2 has most of your favorite boxers plus a career mode where you can create your own boxer and move him up through the ranks. You can also restart a legends career and see what you can do if you were him. The addition of haymakers is what i love most. I cant wait for round 3. 0% of readers found this review helpful.

The sequel to the blockbuster hitStrengths: Intuitive and responsive controls; very realistic player modeling; customizable characters Weakness: Shallow training mode EA Sports took its highly successful game, Fight Night, and made some tweaks to improve upon the game that revolutionized video game boxing. In Round 2, the controls are once again very intuitive and quite responsive. There aren't any confusing button combos to pull off. The game makes great use of the thumbsticks to land punches. With the addition of the haymaker punch, the gameplay takes on added excitement. The boxers look frighteningly realistic, with their bruised and cut faces after taking a hard punch looking just as amazing. This game looks so much like the real deal that you can't help but cringe when you see blood flying out of a boxer's mouth after you land a nasty punch to his head. The knockdowns once again use ragdoll physics which made the original Fight Night so much fun and satisfying to play. The only thing I would like to see added is a more in-depth training mode. The one found in this game simply seems like an afterthought. Nevertheless, Fight Night Round 2 is a work of art that shouldn't be missed by anyone. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Fight Night Round 2Strengths: strong graphics & new corner/cutman play Weakness: Bernard Hopkins on cover The Fight Night franchise really improved on an already awesome game. The most notable improvement in Fight Night Round 2 is the corner/cutman play. In between rounds you now control your players vitality by revamping his cosmetics and strength. Xbox definitely enhances game play from the PS2 version due to better graphics. Career mode allows you to move up the ranks and compete against the best in the game past/present! All gamers will appreciate the sophisticated game play and all boxing advocates will fall in love with the accurate history. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Fight Night Round 2Strengths: great graphics Weakness: none The latest boxing game from EA is easily one of the best boxing game on xbox. The graphics is great, espically the knockouts. The soundtrack is also very good. There are tons of character to chose from, including many classic fighters. If you dont like any of the boxers, you can create your own. The career mode allows you to create your character and move up. Highly recommanded for anyone who likes boxing. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Fight Night Round 2
Strengths: Awesome graphics, challenging gameplay, good soundtrack
Weakness: It can be a little tough and repetitive
Fight Night 2 is the best boxing game out there period (besides Mike Tyson's Punchout for the NES). The game features awesome graphics, challenging gameplay, a good soundtrack, a large variety of opponents and character choices, etc. You can play as a famous boxer from this generation or as a legend like sugar ray leonard. You can also custom create your own character in this game. If you have a custom character from Fight Night 1, you can transfer the data into this sequel. The replay value is high because you can choose from so many characters and all the different weight classes. If you love boxing, this is the best you're going to get.
