TV Sports: Boxing download

TV Sports: Boxing is a boxing sports videogame released by ACME in 1998. Part of the TV Sports series, this game is oriented towards boxing and it is a great one. There are two game modes: exhibition, where you select a boxer and an opponent and fight each other on the ring for a single match. The second one is career, where you start off a rookie boxer and fight your way to the top to be the champion boxer. One unique feature of the game is that players have to chance to create their own boxer, which was rare amongs these type of games in the '90s. The gameplay might look complicated, it's rather easy though. There are 3 meters that each player need to look after: staming, head and body. While the first one is self explanatory, the other 2 are basically health meters. If drained, there is a high chance that the match can end with a knockout. The controls are simple: just hit the opponent either on the head or stomach and back off and defend yourself to gain back some stamina. The graphics are quite nice and the sound is okay. Overall, TV Sports: Boxing is a great boxing experience on home computers. Any fan of the sport should definitively try it out.
