2K Sports Prize Fighter
05 July 2008
I’m a big fan of the sweet science so you can imagine my excitement when I first learned of 2K developing “Don King Presents: Prize Fighter”. My excitement grew when I learned that it would be Venom, creators of the ‘Rocky’ games who were behind the making of this new title.
After getting some considerable time into the game, I’m happy to say that if you’re a fan of boxing, you’ll be a fan of 2K’s Prize Fighter.
The game revolves around a documentary type storyline. Actors, portraying people of significance in your life as ‘The Kid’, are interviewed regarding various aspects of your career. Even former boxing greats are featured speaking in regards to the legend you’re about to build. What separates Prize Fighter from previous boxing titles is how decisions not only made in the ring, but outside of it, affect how the story ends.
I’ll touch on those aspects of the game later.
This afternoon, I got to represent Consolesports.net on the 2K conference call regarding Don King Presents Prizefighter for the XBOX 360. This has got to be the most lively conference call we've ever been on. The legendary boxing promoter Don King and former Heavyweight Champion Larry Holmes are on the call too.
