Ready 2 Rumble for Dreamcast

Pros: Apparently, someone didn't inform Midway that there had to be pros.
Cons: Waste of a Dreamcast Disc.

Way back in the 80’s a little game hit arcades, and it was at the forefront of the 3D revolution. It was a boxing game, and it pitted you against the likes of Glass Joe and Bald Bull. Now that the 90’s have rolled around, boxing has become so promotion...

Pros: multiple styles, competitive, many levels of difficulty, looks pretty good.
Cons: not enough selection of realistic boxers and styles, demi-god boss is weak

This game is fun and I love to play it, but there are a few suggestions that could have made it better.

Quick Summary of Attributes:

Graphics:
Virtually polygon free and smooth looking the graphics look overall above average....

Pros: fun for a little while
Cons: becomes repetitious as quick as a monkey in a glass shop becomes destructive (Why are you always picking on monkey's?)

Unfortunately, contrary to what seemed to be the general consensus about the Dreamcast launch titles, I was not too thrilled by the first batch of games. Either way, being a incorigible game junky, I was at Toys R Us at 9am the day it came out. I looked...

Pros: good
Cons: excellent

Ready 2 Rumble is anything but a realistic portrayal of boxing -- Because it doesn't need to be. Midway took the genre and added a fantasy spin to it, (something like Punchout, but not as systematic) with fast action, exaggerated physics and wild,...

Pros: Everything
Cons: everything

Midway is bringing boxing to the Sega Dreamcast with Ready 2 Rumble Boxing. The arcade-style boxing game features some hilarious but detailed graphics and some of the most addictive gameplay of any game shown at E3. Attendees at the Sega and Midway...

Pros: good graphics, fun to play, realistic
Cons: 1 player a little boring after a while

Ready to Rumble is the first boxing game for the dreamcast and the BEST boxing game I have ever played. This is a must for all dreamcast owners.

To start, the graphics are amazing and lifelike. Each boxer moves in different ways and shuffles...

Pros: Gameplay/Multiplayer/Sound/Graphics
Cons: Longevity

I have always loathed boxing games, plain and simple. They’re never fun, they’re boring, and adding icing to the garbage-filled cake is that they drone on too long. Super Punchout!! was the last boxing game I enjoyed.

However, Midway came up...

Pros: realistic
Cons: none

We got this as a gift for christmas and we love this game. A great way to get out frustration. This game is really action packed. With photo realistic characters. The people look really good. And as the fights progress they look like they are getting...

Pros: Great visuals, humorous characters.
Cons: Not for veteran gamers.

Ready 2 Rumble takes boxing one step further then normal as it combines humorous characters and gameplay with voice overs from real life boxing announcer Michael Buffer. It must be pointed out this is strictly a arcade game and not a real life simulation...

Pros: awesome graphics, over 30 boxers
Cons: no realism, cartoons slugging it out, that could be fun I guess

I think ready to rumble is fun if your just looking to fool around and drool at the really good graphics! If you want a good boxing game that has real boxers instead of jo blo and his cartton buddies, I would recommend Knockout Kings 2000 for N64. That...

Pros: fun, great graphics, great movements
Cons: gets old soon, no mastery

I admit that Ready 2 Rumble Boxing is a hit as far as graphics, movements, and reality is concerned. Most of you probably noticed, however, that the ratings are not very good. The first 25 times that you play this game, you will be quite impressed with...

Pros: Black man is funny
Cons: game gets to be corny afterawhile

All the adjectives floating around about this game have been over the top, incredible graphics, awesome gameplay, and best console game of E3; the list goes on and on. However, does the title live up to all of the hype? After having played the game...

Pros: Graphics, Joking Style
Cons: Short matches

Ready to Rumble Boxing is exciting and fun. This game keeps you on your toes for shorts bursts of time. The graphics rock the house and so do the characters. The wide range of character types get you trying different fighters until you find your...

Pros: everything
Cons: none

Here is some info on Ready to rumble 2.Dreamcast puts you ringside with the ultimate 3D boxing bonanza. As one of 16 characters, you'll clobber your opponents using an unlimited number of punch combinations for both realistic and over-the-top boxing...

Pros: Graphics, Gameplay, Sounds, Control
Cons: Repetition

In the sporting world of video games, boxing has been readily left out. Why? To put it simply game developers have failed to make boxing fun (with the exception of the NES classic of PunchOut!). Well all that changed when Midway, creators of classics...
