GameFocus: Ready 2 Rumble Revolution Review

GameFocus writes: "There comes a time in every boxers life when they have to realize it's time to hang up the gloves. Unfortunately, it's never an easy thing to do, despite the apparent fact that they just can't hang with the new school crowd. Atari and Aki's resurrection of the Ready 2 Rumble boxing series,once the king of arcade boxers, tries to jump back into the ring on the Wii. Can the game relive it's past glory? Or will it be K.O.'d in round one? Here, we explore Ready 2 Rumble Revolution."

Pros

+ Cartoon-like characters compliment arcade style.
+ Some training minigames are tolerable.
+ A fair number of unlockables.
+ Multiplayer isn't nearly as frustrating

Cons

- Worst. Controls. Ever.
- Humour hasn't evolved since the series' inception 10 years ago.
- Exploitable power moves that even the AI utilizes.

My favs in no particular order...

COD (any)
BF 3
NBA2k12
GTA
Forza 3/4
Red Dead
Mario Party
Kinect Sports
Halo

Uhm, and then? NO MORE AND THEN!

Ya, the list could go on, and on, and on. Oh, and playing that game, "Guess what's in your mouth" with the ladies while wasted is always fun too. ;)

@blackdeath... Naw, I'm not an angry drunk, and I still play pretty much as good as I do when sober. 1.2 K/D... anyways. I like COD while drinking, because of the friends on my friends list. We all bust open a six pack or something, and start a night of playing. The joking and all that makes for a good time.

But I do see what you're saying though. I'm sure some would be hitting their dogs while playing and drinking during some COD. lol.

Call of duty is the worst game to play while wasted youd probably get soo pissed off at campers youll end up smashing your tv.

i think any wii game or ps move game would be fun while wasted cus youll forget just how shit wii sports is and start flinging the wii mote all over tha place. any motion sensing party games could work well while drunk. first person shooters is the worst thing to play while drunk imo
