Title: BATTLE OF THE SUBPAR BOXING CARTS
Post by: Sinistron on February 27, 2008, 04:16:10 PM

Man these are beyond underwhelming.  Admitted that Andre Panza is a nice effort- but eh.  What a wet dog. 

Funny how the 4 boxing games for PCE/TG start with A, B, C, & D. 

They all suck- but I find Digital Champ to be best for the quick laugh and Rocky Balboa lookalike.

Gotta give it to Digital Champ. It's a decent game actually, but a little frustrating and tedious.

They can all lick my sack, but I chose Champions Forever for the kick ass sounds.

Before I vote: are we voting on which game sucks the most, or which game sucks the least?

Does it really matter.  :lol:

I guess if you want to be technical, then it should be the worst, since the title implies a battle for subparosity and the last option is for equal sucktitude.

Yeah, that's what I thought but what confused me was people seem to be voting for their favorite. Aw, f*ck it. Option #5 it is.

No, they don't. Come on, how can you say that digital champ and panza kickboxing suck?
Digtal Champ is my fav' all the way.

Sorry guys for the confusion- I actually meant which one of these subpar games was the best of the bunch...  :oops:

Nat- I know I had the option of letting others change their vote once I created the poll-
but now I don't see that option when I "edit poll"...
Maybe you can help me out here?  :-k

Andre Panza isn't bad,  especially considering every other TG16 sports title (save WCT and MAYBE B-Royale?) absolutely blows

@ shubibiman and MurderDate (or anyone else with mad skillz):

I've tried to play Andre Panza, but can't seem to figure it out and just end up button mashing.  Since you two like it, or at least tolerate it, would you explain to me how to control the dang thing?

Title: Re: BATTLE OF THE SUBPAR BOXING CARTS

It's all about the training mode necro- practice your attacks and get more power points that way-

I got up to Panza himself and haven't played it since...
Might as well try him again since I wasted so much time on the stinker-
First got it and was like- "hey this isn't bad!"

Delusion straight and simple.

Panza seems like the most polished of the bunch. Nice graphics at least. Control isn't too bad once you figure it out. I had to read the manual to figure out what to do, though.

EDIT: Poll fixed.

EDIT EDIT: It's funny how no one has voted for "Bullfight Ring." Am I the only one that's never even heard of this game? I think Sinistron made it up to trick us.

haha I assure you it's real Nat- one of the absolute worst games I own.  It's a 3-mg cart from "Cream Corp." but you definitely won't "cream" yourself playing it.  I'm pretty sure that I put it on my list on that top ten suckiest hucard survey.  The full title according to pcecp is Bullfight Ring No Haja.  Aside from the boxing there is a Vigilante-like platform mode as well which sucks like you wouldn't/couldn't believe.  Stay far, far away.   :-&

I liked AP Kick boxing!  Anyone actually make it to the end and beat Andre?

Its got a nice career mode- with some equally nice training and RPG(ish) features.  I don't think I ever beat Andre' at the end though....


Might have to pick that one up and play a few rounds later.....

I played all the way through Panza using only two moves.

Bullfight should have been named Bullshit.

CFB is the only one I got any enjoyment out of. Its cool just as a tech demo.
