From a million to one shot, he became a true champion of the world. Rocky also became a legend, along with his opponents
Graphics - The graphics are better than the first rocky game. All of the Rocky faces are nailed, they look exactly like Each Rocky from each movie. The graphics are really good for it's time. 8/10
Gameplay - It's not perfect, but it's not bad either. I dunno, for me i found the punches were quicker in the first rocky game. But there has been cool features added, like an audience bar, when you throw a super punch, it becomes a super combo punch! So I guess it is an improvment. 7/10
Sound - Now here is one of it's lowest points. The voice acting. Let's face it, it's terrible. But that doesn't make the game bad. I found the voices from the first Rocky game alot better, but i think that's because they recorded right out of the movie, and imported on to the game. But the punches sound effects and entrance music is great. Also, you get a juke box, and the song War is in it! But no hearts on fire of Eye of the tiger, buy you can listen to the entrance music! 8/10
The career mode is so much better. You can play as Clubber Lang, Apollo Creed, Ivan Drago, and of course Rocky. It shows where they each came from, and how they became to be. That answeres everyone's questions on how they came to be.
There are ALOT of extras, you now have money to spend to buy stuff, like boxers, and arenas. Also, there are the Rocky trailers, good to look at. A thing i found cool is that Mickey is in the game, but in his prime!
There are new training games, clubber's pull ups, apollo's sparring, drago's leg exercise, and rocky's chicken chase! Cool!

- The game cover
So there you have it. You like Rocky, get this game and try it out. If you don't, than I don't now what to say. If you already have this game and just reading my review for the heck of it, then go eat lightning and crap thunder!
