Forums - Sony - IGN:The Fight: Lights Out Review (HORRID!!!)

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/113/1131355p2.html

 

Closing Comments
It is uncertain whether a bit more time in development could have shaped The Fight: Lights Out into something mildly enjoyable, but as it stands the finished product is a mess that is not only frustrating to play -- it is also tiring and boring. The slow and inaccurate control mechanics are frustrating, the ridiculous tough-guy approach inspires laughter, the single-player career mode will lose your interest almost immediately and multiplayer will lose you even sooner. The Fight: Lights Out is a game where the developers probably should have thrown in the towel a long time ago.
IGN Ratings for The Fight: Lights Out (PS3)
Rating Description
out of 10 Click here for ratings guide
3.0 Presentation
Clunky menus and awful video tutorials recall the Sega CD at its worst, and the career is the laziest seen in years.
6.0 Graphics
The visuals are adequate, though the locations and character designs are bland and lack personality.
4.5 Sound
A generic Hip-Hop soundtrack that compliments the usual sounds of meat-slabs being smacked.
2.5 Gameplay
With inaccurate and frustrating controls that don't work the way you want them to, you will simply end up tired and bored.
2.5 Lasting Appeal
It's hard to believe anyone will suffer these controls long enough to stick around for more than a few hours, with or without multiplayer.
3.0
OVERALL
Bad
(out of 10)

I had high hopes for this one.

EA, I'm looking at you and Fight Night Round 5 with 1:1 punch control.

Wow! I'm really shocked. I only heard good things about this game. Guess I was really wrong.
