George Foreman's KO Boxing!

Remembering the games of yesteryear.

George Foreman's KO Boxing!

Postby MrKite » Tue Dec 27, '11, 8:07 am

Despite the fact that I think it's absolutely hilarious that George Foreman has not one, but TWO of his own video games (this one included, the other was 1995's Foreman For Real), this is a pretty awesome alternative to Punch-Out!! which I own the Genesis and Game Boy versions of. I can't get past Fujioka though.

Is it just me, or does the Genesis game look a lot like a Punch Out!! clone? I mean, you've got a similar perspective and dodging looks kinda the same... When I first saw the name in this topic, I wondered why I hadn't heard more about this game back in the day. George Foreman is no stranger to heavily promoting a product, after all. But if the game is as similar to Punch Out as that fight looked, I begin to understand.

All the versions except the Game Gear/Sega Master System version are the same except for graphical and some other differences.

I must admit that the name George Foreman attracted me to this post. Not because of his game related activities though but because he makes super grills, lol. Okay, I'm done.

:lol: Good one !
As for the game, I've finally tested it two days ago and that is a good game but..too hard for me ! So I've abandoned it quick ; you seems to touch your opponent but he hit far more stronger than you so.. impossible ! :(
