This is a brilliant game, I have only played it on the dreamcast console and it is one of the best games I have, Aswell as sega bass fishing, this is a combination of a fighting game and a management game, of course, because it is on the dreamcast, this game will cost a lot of money, but I feel it is worth it, unlike many games, this one is not able to be completed in one day, if you manage to become the champion of one boxer, then new boxers appear to complete, at an estimate, I would suggest this game takes a month to complete, if played virtually non stop and needs no extra components to play (a certain controller)

budding gaming enthusiasts was the likeable yet outlandish assortment of characters. InReady 2 Rumble Boxing Round 2, the formula is repeated by adding as many as a dozen new characters, with Shaquille O'Neal, Freke Deke, Robox RE SE4, Johnny Blood, Mama Tua and even reclusive pop star Michael Jackson leading the wacky pack of fictional and semifictional boxers.A few of your favourite characters from the first game return inReady 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2, which features updated, customisable costumes. Each character also has his or her own special moves, including a bounce in the female boxers that mimics the real-life gravitational forces at play that are found in the female characters in Tecmo'sDead or Alive.In terms of gameplay, Sega has gone back to the gym and reworked the Championship mode. This time around, your fighting schedule is based around a calendar of matches, as opposed to being based solely on your prize winnings. As you win your way through the championship mode, new gym equipment will be available for you to use to build your skills. Some new training events have been added, including stair climbing and rope jumping.The most interesting part of the Championship mode includes the addition of a wrestling-style backstory that sees backstage shenanigans and feuds between the fighters. The new Team Battle mode lets you choose up to eight team members for an actual rumble with an opposing group of pugilists from the game. Several new camera angles have been added, which ups the total number to nine. Also, players can expect to suffer from computer-generated blurry vision after one too many blows to the head. As a result of these additions,Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2should be a knockout (pun most certainly intended of course). --Todd Mowatt

Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2is the first GBA fighting game and that's a lot of weight to ... more
carry on its muscular and well-rounded shoulders. But Midway's baby has been a hit on several systems already, merging boxing with hilarity and featuring wild characters like Afro Thunder, Mama Tua and more--all outfitted with power moves and special taunts.The GBA version looks good; it features loads of colour and everything from the taunts to Michael Buffer's famous tagline "Let's get ready to rumble" is intact. Unfortunately, the gameplay isn't.Ready to Rumble 2for the GBA is a 2-D fighting game, not a 3-D one like before. You can move forward and backward, block and punch. Move while punching and you get an uppercut or a short jab. There's almost no sense of damage as you hit these poorly animated foes and this takes all the personality out of the game.There are 11 characters in total: some favourites from the original games and two new unlockable ones--Michael Buffer as "Rumble Man" (yawn) and... Michael Jackson. There are four modes of play: arcade-style, championship, training and survival (where you've got to fight each opponent until you go down flat). You can create your own boxer if you like and participate in a few mini-training-games like rumble pads, weightlifting and the speed bag.WhatReady to Rumble 2amounts to is a perfectly good and great looking Game Boy Color game but it doesn't do boxing justice. It isn't nearly as good asReady to Rumbleon other platforms and it just doesn't fit in with the other, mostly fantastic, GBA launch titles.--Andrew S Bub
