4.0 out of 5 stars its worth 20 dollars, March 19, 2005

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Rocky: Legends (Video Game)

If you liked the first Rocky game then you will like this one, but be warned "not much has changed". Everything is basically the same; the graphics, controls, music.

~The Rocky Legends update includes~
super combo punches
different training
slow motion knock down replays
some new boxers
some new arenas
smarter AI (computer opponent)
career mode with Apollo, Rocky, Drago, or Clubber
no more walking to the ring entrances (a bad idea)

Like the first game you still have the regular super punches, but now you can build up a special meter that allows you to deliver a super punch combo. The training includes jump rope and chicken chase which is cool, but training is much harder in this game then the first. The AI opponents are much harder in this game (on medium or hard mode). Not only does the AI learn your style and force you to adapt to a different style to win, but alot of energy is renewed during the fight and between rounds (which can be frustrating). If you thought you were a master of the first game, this one will really test your skills.

In conclusion, if you'r a fan of the first rocky and you crave more of a challenge from the AI(computer opponent) you should pick up this game. The minor updates in the sequel/prequel are not worth 50 or 40 dollars, but you can now get this game new for 20 dollars or less (which is a good deal).

4.0 out of 5 stars Smokes the last Rocky video game., October 2, 2004

This review is from: Rocky: Legends (Video Game)

Finally. This is the Rocky game I wanted the first time around. Really cool game that is true to the Rocky films. My only complaint is that some of the voice actors used don't really sound anything like the real actors in the films. That's the only thing that takes away from this game. As for everything else I'm happy.

People like me who hated the last cheesy Rocky game will like this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars best game ever!!!, October 3, 2010

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Rocky: Legends (Video Game)

This game is amazing. It has all the characters from all the rocky movies (up to number 6) including,Rocky, Clubber Lang, Ivan Drago, Tommy Gun, and the master of disaster, the king of sting, Apollo Creed. This game has amazing graphics and you can play story mode as 4 different characters. This game is amazing. This game is amazing but has some faults to it, like when you get knocked down the refs count very fast. And also you can't play as Tommy gun in story mode. Other than that this game is fantastic for all ages and rocky likers or not. Have fun and "It ain't over 'till it's over".
