    Motion controls: the silent killer. It is no secret that amongst hardcore gamers the Dreamcast is one of the most beloved memories in recent years. Read more

    Ready 2 Rumble Revolution retains all the knockout features of best-sellers Ready 2 Rumble Boxing Round 1 and Round 2, while delivering a knockout punch of style and attitude. Tailored to take advantage of the motion-controlled realism of Wii, Ready 2 Rumble Revolution makes landing a punch more fun than ever. Read more

    Admit it; you still play Wii Sports more than any other game that’s come out since the Wii hit shelves in November 2006. And why not? What other game showcases just how fun the system can be than the Wii’s free pack-in title that requires players get up and get their waggle on? Read more

    I’m guessing that the Revolution of the title is in regards to the controls, as the newest Ready 2 Rumble isn’t too far removed from other titles in the series. It still involves cartoon boxers slugging it out in a more over the top manner than what you’d see in real life. I’m not a boxing fan, but I’m guessing that a powerful punch has never sent an opponent flying up towards the rafters, lets face it, even Ivan Drago couldn’t do that. Read more

    There was just something downright fun about playing the original Ready to Rumble. I’m not sure whether it was the pick-up-and-play arcade-style controls or the over-the-top cast of characters that filled out the roster. I am sure, however, that the latest entry in the series, Ready 2 Rumble Revolution , has neither. Read more

    I see no reason to buy this game or even mention it. Late last year we heard about Ready 2 Rumble Revolution being developed and now it is released. They really put no goddamn time into this game. I could name a hundred things I would rather do than play this game so do yourself a favor and throw this game to the ground if you see it. Read more

    When Midway launched the original Ready 2 Rumble Boxing on the Dreamcast, its mind-blowing graphics and smooth animation sold skeptics on the power of Sega’s next-gen console. The game harkened back to the glory days of arcade boxing, and provided a simple yet fun gameplay experience with memorable characters and entertaining multiplayer. Read more

    Shawn White tries another extreme sport. The long history of boxing is riddled with once-great fighters who decided to come out of retirement and attempt one more shot at stardom. From Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali to Sugar Ray Leonard and -- now -- Oscar De La Hoya, fighters who should have stayed outside the ropes have wandered back in only to get their bodies and their pride pummeled.

    Though Ready 2 Rumble Revolution for Wii aspires to offer an advanced variation on Wii Sports boxing, it utterly fails to actually deliver. Read more

    Once you learn how to do the motion controls, anyone can enjoy this game. No game has been able to pick up people freeform punching with the Wii, you have to adjust to the game. At a price of less than $10 it is worth it. R2R is the least frustrating boxing game I have played on the Wii. The problem I have run into is when your boxer gets near the end of his career - he is nearly unbeatable. Practice and learn and this game can be fun. Read more or see product
