Toys - not a real vendor (test account)
While it never quite achieves Muhammad Ali-like greatness, Knockout Kings 2000 is nonetheless an excellent boxing game for both the enthusiast and the casual gamer. Fifty boxing legends from the past and present are featured in this EA Sports title, along with world-famous arenas and TV-style coverage. In addition to being able to set up your own fights in the standard exhibition mode, you can play out nine of the greatest boxing matches in history in the game's classic mode. And for those interested in less realism and more pugilism, slugfest mode offers over-the-top, arcade-style boxing.The real crowd pleaser here is Knockout Kings 2000's career mode. Choosing from a wide variety of options, you get to create your own custom boxer, who can fight his way to the top in career mode or participate in exhibition and slugfest matches. Before career fights, customized boxers can be improved by training, or playing various mini-games. (A memory card is required to save custom boxer data.)
What robs Knockout Kings 2000 of the championship belt is its unbalanced 3-D graphics. The boxers look great and move fluidly, but everything else appears flat and unfinished. Thankfully, fast game speed and responsive controls clamp down on the sightseeing, which is one sure-fire way to end up KO'd. --Joe Hon
Pros:
- Can create your own custom boxer
- Features realistic and arcade-style boxing
- Fast game speed and responsive controls
- Optional 1-button mode for those who don't want to memorize controls
- Except for the boxers, graphics aren't very pretty

THIS IS FOR THE NINTENDO 64 GAME VERSION. Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2 features world famous announcer Michael Buffer and his popular "Let's Get Ready to Rumble" trademark call. Players are able to compete in arcade-style boxing modes and fight for the championship belt, as well as participate in an enhanced championship option where they can take on the role of both a boxer and his manager. Other key features include improved special effects and fighter details, twelve new boxers (including the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson), additional taunts, intros, and victory dances, and a brand-new list of special moves, combos, and extreme knockdowns.

Despite some minor flaws, Ready 2 Rumble Boxing is a solid performer, delivering good arcade-style boxing action. All of the game's 18 boxers have distinct characteristics in keeping with their comically caricatured looks, including trademark special moves. In addition to arcade mode--where you fight in successive tournament-style bouts--the game features a championship mode in which you choose a boxer and train him to achieve Rocky-like status. To win the title fights along this road to victory, you must train your boxer in various mini-games to improve his abilities, as well as win prize and exhibition fights to raise money to pay for said training. A controller pack is required to save boxer data, and you're probably going to want to use the optional thunder pack to experience the full Rumble.While the supported expansion pack gives Ready 2 Rumble Boxing crisp, high-resolution graphics, the game's speed could have used a boost as well, being distractingly inconsistent at times. And while the game certainly sounds good, the digitized dialogue can be annoyingly repetitive, none more so than sports announcer Michael Buffer's patented "Let's Get Ready to Rumble!" chant. --Joe Hon
Pros:
- Good arcade-style boxing
- Excellent 2-player head-to-head action
- Challenging mini-games in championship mode
- Ability to use customized boxers in exhibition fights
- Game speed is inconsistent at times
- Repetitive digitized voices
