Talk about varied. Archie Moore and Chris Eubank.

yeah.The roster is missing some big names but with all the different promotional deals these days, it's often difficult to get everybody.

The storyline mode sounds like it will be pretty interesting, focusing both on the in-ring and all the press stuff.

The gameplay sounds straightforward but also more realistic than other boxing games.

I might take a look. The problem with boxing as a video games ios that the players can't perform the great special moves of the likes of tekken and streefighter. Having said tht I still might take a look at this.

It's meant to have the same controls as what streetfighter did.I suppose it might allow you to build up to the real hayemaker style punches.

Here's the trailer:
