 Very Poor September 28, 2008
Stevie_2007 (UK)
It might have stolen the license to use the top boxers names from under EA's noses, thus ending the Fight Night Series, but it's about as bad as 'Mike Tyson Heavyweight Boxing' was.
There seem to be as many bad boxing games out there as good ones, and this one is just hopeless, a button masher at best, if you are thinking about getting it, please at least download the demo on marketplace and decide first hand, only plus side is that Joe Calzaghe is in it.
Boxing fans avoid this game at all costs. July 8, 2008

I wanted to like this game sooooo much ..... but it is very bad and poorly created. It doesnt play well at all and in every regard it is vastly inferior to EA's Fight Night series. Unlike Fight Night, Prizefighter is not fluid at all in gameplay, the control system is poor, and it appears that no effott has gone in to creating a realistic and enjoyable boxing sim. Every boxing fan should avoid this game as it will only dissapoint. A very poor game and a waste of my money.
very poor relation of fight night June 27, 2008

This is a very poor boxing game with no skill involved at all just another button basher, fight night was an exceptionally skillfull game with an amazing control system this is dire in comparision. The graphics are poor, long delays in relation to pressing control to it having any effect on screen. The so called real players in it have no comparision what so ever to their real life counterparts. Any one who says this is better than fight night is clearly 5 years old or has no skill at all in their gaming hence enjoying this tripe!
 Mediocre June 21, 2008

Nowhere near as good as Fight Night 3, but still enjoyable enough if you're a boxing fan. Has a fair few flaws, like poor collision detection, but it's enjoyable enough, probably worth getting to tide you over till Fight Night 4.

This is a different game to the Fight Night Franchise... in this game you actually have to box and use your jab and consider your shots and follow the advice that the corner gives you.
It is possible to circle round the opponent and punch to the side,, step back and drop in a couple of jabs, cover up and throw a straight as your opponent winds up for a signature punch.
A very impressive game with a step learning curve on the buttons and tatics and a nice training side with online ranking
Fight Night is arcady in feel but this game will not disappoint pure pugilism purists.
Training games are challenging and you have to sacrifice training time for Celebrity Events and endorsements etc to raise your media profile to get noticed by different agents etc.
Graphically this game will not challenge Fight Night but the developers have clearly invested in your opponents AI and the feel of making your way up the ranks of your weight class. That being said its not poor graphically and there are a whole host of current boxers and during your career you get to play the part of some classic bouts and rounds that are legend.
As a first stab 2k have acheived a game that is worth your 30 will have great playability and has a good format for multiplayer with your mates on one 360 or online with one on one matches plus an 8 handed tournament event.
I would heartliy recommend this as a playable sports title with depth and live that will sit well in your collection and be fun solo/on-line or with mates and beers
