This game is kicking-ass! Somebody says that the training is tedious. You can always auto-train and save your concentration on the movie mode. Way easy to beat? I read the review on gamespot.com saying that with timing punches you can easily beat the players. It's true for the Novice level, but not for Contender and Champion modes, particuly for some all-around, quick and hard-hitting players at later stages of the game. You have to practice the combos and at least master 2 or 3 set of skills in order to knock out your contenders quickly and effectly, because Rocky is inheritantly weaker than his opponents in many ways (e.g. stamina).

Once you practice and practice you will really enjoy the fun of the big swing, upper-cut (damage 38, as opposed to 1 per "timing punch") after making your opponents dizzy. When you learn most of the skills and effective combos you will feel good about yourself. When you piss at your boss, come back home and use Rocky to knock you out of your anger. This will make your feel great again.

Magnifico juego, los controles al principio son un poco complicados, pero una vez acostumbrado son geniales, tienes varias opciones de entrenamiento para ir incrementando tus habilidades conforme avanzas en el juego y los combos que puedes llegar a hacer son fabulosos. Claro, si eres fan del Italian Stallion pues este juego te hara sentir con topofocientos mil kilos de stamina.
