Editorial Review:
Play as Rocky and go head-to-head against Apollo Creed, Clubber Lang and many others! Train with Mickey to pound your way from the streets of Philadelphia to become the Heavyweight Champion of the World. Rocky delivers big-time signature moves with thunderous power that cause real-time damage.
In UBI Soft's Rocky the cartoonish spinning, backwards punches, and rope-crashing choreography of the movie franchise are replaced by sound boxing fundamentals and realistic moves. Boxing purists will be well pleased with the realistic game design, including dead-on graphics and enough jab, hook, clinch, and taunt capability to satisfy any bloodlust. Movie fans will enjoy controlling or opposing all the Rocky legends, from the Aliesque "King of Sting, Master of Disaster" Apollo Creed to Clubber Lang, Ivan Drago, and more. While the gameplay is no giant leap forward (even from boxing classics like Sega Genesis's Evander Holyfield's Real Deal Boxing), this game is a must-have for Rocky fans, a good buy for boxing fans, and a pleasant, if not revolutionary, choice for gamers. --Patty Stuart

Rating: - just beating up fools
someone stole this game and i need a new one. this thing is really fun. all the classic fun that you would hope for and the game play is good. i got addicted to this game. i don't like complicated games, and this wasn't. just right. my only gripe would be that i don't like the training part that is required to build strength. i just wanted to box. but if you can get over doing some of that stuff, this may be the perfect game.
Rating:  - Amazing Game
I was in Sam's the other day, and I had 15 dollars to blow. I had a choice between this game and Knockout Kings, both obviously older games. I chose this one, thinking that the movie mode would be good. Boy was I right. I have never before beat a game by myself. Usually I get to about the 5th level and just give up and my brother beats it. Not so with this one. You have to fight in the actual venues Rocky fights in, from the chapel to the Philadelphia Arena. The only thing was that it is maybe too ... Read More
Rating: - A Real Knock-Out
I saw this game at a retailer here and being a fan of the Rocky films, I knew I had to have it so I got it, popped it in the PS2 and was amazed with what I saw. It's exactly like the saga of Rocky Balboa beginning from the chapel match against Spider Rico in 1975 to the brutal no rules street fight with Tommy Gunn in 1990. This one's got most of it covered. It has excellent graphics in the fight venues and beautifully choreographed fighters with changeable costumes and actual boxing moves used everywhere. ... Read More
Rating: - ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE
iu myself am a huge fan of the movies so I had to get the game, and it was worth while to.
It has great sound affects and the graphics are great, along the way you can fight from spider rico to the greats like Ivan Drago and Tommy Gunn.
I reccommend it for anyone!
Rating:  - This game is crap
I bought this game which turned out to be rubbish first of all the gameplay is sloppy and horrible the boxers look like apes.
THIS COULD BE AS I DONT LIKE OLD GAMES AND DONT WATCH BOXING BUT STILL LIKED KNOCKOUT KINGS AND READY TO RUMBLE.
IF YOU CANT PLAY THIS GAME WITH A FRIEND THEN DONT BOTHER GETTING IT.
I RENTED THIS GAME FOR 3 NIGHTS AND TOOK IT BACK ON THE FIRST NIGHT AND ASKED FOR MY MONEY BACK.
