Description:
It's big, rough, tough and hard-hitting: wipe the sweat from your eyes and come face to face with Iron Mike in Mike Tyson Heavyweight Boxing.
With the most intuitive and responsive play created for a boxing video game, get your hands on the controls and you'll feel a real connection with every heavyweight punch. Each of the professional boxers featured has his own skills, signature punches, and signature combos in addition to the standard punches, counter punches, hooks, jab as well as a full range of blocks, dodges and pushes for successful evasion and defence.
Never before has there been a video game that brings players the dynamics of heavyweight boxing. The sport is aggressive and confrontational and the game captures this right down to the bruises and blood. However, it's also got the glitz that accompanies it across the globe.
Mike Tyson Heavyweight Boxing couples huge depth of play with immediate accessibility to appeal to all fight and sports fans. The visuals capture every professional boxer's likeness and spirit effectively and incredibly dramatically, thanks to the realistic facial damage engine. The PAIN (Polymorphic And Interpolative Node-mapping) damage engine is unique to the game and delivers dynamic visuals of boxers' faces. Blood, sweat, tears and bruises – land a really bang-on punch and see your opponent's face swell up as the PAIN engine allows areas of the boxers' faces to expand over the textured damage effects. Each boxer damages in a unique manner, including every custom boxer you create.
