So when EA announced they're working on an arcade styled boxing game – Facebreaker – the newly born boxing fanatic within me stirred afresh.

Good:
+Looks are refreshing
Bad:
-Everything else is rubbish
-No combo system
-Combat system is bland and lifeless
-Character creation tools are limited
-No complexity in gameplay
-Relies too much on counter system

From the article:
"Real Steel is, believe it or not, one of the top 10 best selling games on XBox Live Arcade. Considering the prevalence of the DLC, and the number of people playing, it’s a safe bet that Real Steel has become a surprisingly steady source of income for Yukes."
So a company is continuing to update and support a popular title.
