What They Say:
Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"What HBO Boxing lacks in graphical polish and auditory delights, it more than makes up for in its gameplay. Fight fans are lucky to have a game like HBO Boxing on the market; warts and all, at least Acclaim is trying something different in its approach."
"Its poor graphics, crummy control, and awful gameplay simply kill the experience. This is one boxing game that should never have left the locker room..."
"No amount of graphical touches can fix an ultimately slow-playing, sluggishly responsive game. HBO Boxing neither looks pretty, nor plays it. When fighting the controls and poor design is your main opponent, that's as good a reason to pass on the game as any."
"HBO Boxing is a complete mess. From the moment you see any of the 3D models, you'll be severely disappointed."
"You begin in local gyms and work your way up the HBO Sports boxing ladder, starting out on HBO's KO Nation and continuing up the ranks though HBO's Boxing After Dark, HBO World Championship Boxing, and finally onto TVKO Pay-Per-View, HBO's premier boxing telecast."
