91The sounds of gloves hitting faces gives off a satisfying smack, and body blows have a painful thudding sound to them.
-
It’s a great game with visual flair and an immense depth of gameplay that recreates the “Sweet Science” perfectly.
-
A winner with at least majority decision, if not a knockout.
-
83Capturing the spirit of the films more closely than few movie-licensed videogames before it, Rage Software's stab at the Italian Stallion is every bit a masterpiece that the movies were.
-
83To our delight, Rage has done a wonderful job of putting the movie into game form, and at the same time has made a game that is actually good.

Features the premiere boxing engine on PS2. [Jan 2003, p.130]
-
The facial damage system is spectacular. You can actually see the damage you're inflicting on your opponent. Yo Adrianne! This game rocks! [Jan 2003, p.85]
-
The game is a fairly realistic boxing sim. It pretty much it boils down to this: if you liked the acclaimed Rocky series, you’re sure to like this title, but if you never cared for it, you’ll probably hate it.
-
74Unfortunately, for PS2 owners, a vicious beat-down is delivered by the GameCube's less blurry, less angular crowds, and it wins by a split decision.
-
70The control and gameplay aren't great, but they're good enough for fans of the license. [Holiday 2002, p.54]
-
70Few licensed videogames have captured the essence of their source material as well as Rage Software has captured the heart and soul, not to mention the over-the-top style of the boxing matches, that makes a “Rocky” movie click.
-
We have to deduct points for the game's flaccid fighting engine, which looks awfully similar to "Ready to Rumble Boxing" and becomes repetitive after about three bouts. [15 Nov 2002, p.144]
-
With improved animation, a more robust career, and a better choice of modes, it could have easily been a knockout instead of a contender.
-
55Completely spoiled by a few major problems, the worst of which makes it possible to get by opponents using only one button.
