Amazon.com Product Description
Black & Bruised thrusts players into the colorful world of 18 boxers and 18 different arenas. High-quality cartoon cel-shading technology showcases the game's cartoonesque visuals and cleverly exaggerates gameplay. The game features pressure-sensitive controls, easy to learn but hard to master, which provide players a full sense of control over their boxers. Player immersion is further heightened with the use of skeletal motion and skin-morphing technology, which creates fluid character movements.

Players learn the life story of each boxer and how winning will benefit them. Characters are differentiated not only by their look but by their individual personalities, which are enhanced by the game's advanced AI system. More than 30 unique and detailed facial animations convey the boxer's mood and reaction to landed punches. Additional game features include five modes of play (training, single, championship, survival, and two-player), a choice of first-person or close-up third-person camera viewpoints, and boxer's life mode, which offers full-motion video updates to reflect the impact of the fight's outcome on the character's life. Special effects include stars, perspiration, particle effects, and explosions that indicate the effectiveness of a particular punch.

FUNNEST BOXING GAME EVER! January 1, 2005
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Listen up..I've played most of the boxing games out there,
and this one by far is the most enjoyable i've ever played.
The graphics are amazing,the characters have unique and humerous
personalities,your control of the character is very good and when
landing punches you feel as though you are really pulverizing your opponent.
I hope they come out with a BLACK&BRUISED2.
In my opinion its a must have for you collection!

Fun Arcade style game! July 13, 2003
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

If you're looking for a real life boxing simulation game, then pass this. But if you just want some old fashioned slobberknocker fun, then this is for you! The conversation mode between rounds and Boxer's life mode give life to the characters being presented. The power-ups and different personalities are great too. In story mode, certain events happen and affects your match and gives certains weaknesses. Anyways, ya its a pretty good game.

Not impressed. March 11, 2003

I was not impressed at all with the controls of the game, while the graphics were great the controls are enough for me to pass on this one. If you like Mike Tyson's Punch Out then this game is for you, if you want realism stick with Knockout Kings.
