Knockout Kings 2001
Amazon.com Review
EA Sports has dressed up its bestselling boxing title for the new millennium and has kindly added enough new features to make this game a knockout on the PlayStation2… no pun intended.
The raft of changes that has been added to this version of Knockout Kings includes a new way to throw punches, aptly called Dynamic Punch Control. This feature allows you to control and place together punch combinations that will outwit the other fighters you face. The limitless combinations add a new level of replayability to the title that didn’t exist in previous installments.
You can make dream bouts using some of the best boxers the world has ever seen. The lineup includes Smoking Joe Frazier, Muhammad Ali, Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Roberto Duran, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, and Julio Cesar Chavez. Better yet, place them up against some of boxing’s contemporary stars such as Oscar De La Hoya, Lennox Lewis, or Michael Grant.
EA Sports has left no stone unturned when it comes to the sweet science of boxing. New fighting styles now allow gamers to make boxers with attacks that mimic those of boxing’s legends, such as Ken Norton’s crab stylishness or Rocky Marciano’s slugger stylishness. –Todd Mowatt
Pros:
- New haymaker punches
- Signature moves of legendary boxers
Cons:
- Learning curve of this boxing simulation may turn off arcade gamers just looking to rabbit punch a couple of palookas

So many people gave this 5 stars. why? the graphics are subpar, and the playability is not very excellent. If you don’t have a playstation 2 yet, don’t agonize because there is only 1 really 5 star game out for it being SSX. If you have a playstation 2 and are thinking about this game, don’t or you’ll be sorry.

As far as I am concerned, this game is disappointingly dull and just the same Playstation1 game all over again, where is the gameplay. If I may suggest: DON’T BUY THIS GAME Buy Ready 2 Rumble round 2, Its better and more realistic.

It is a excellent game by and large, but, if you want a excellent creat of boxer this is not what you want. I for one WOULD like to have a decent creat a boxer. this one doesn’t even beat The Greatest Heavywieght’s creat a boxer. They had to scan in people which to me was a total terrible thought.
I hope EA Sports makes 4 Major improvements on 2002 version.
1.ALOT BETTER Creat of Boxer! maby a creat of manager/trainer/cut man. 2.Creat Female Boxers. 3.LARGER line up! 40 All Star Boxers my …! Get back to the basics and allow a 30 rank Heavywieght league maby 34 so 4 other people can be on at the same time, and if they wanna pass you there gonna have to beat yah. and 4. ALLOW defending the championship belt!
These are what keep Knockout Kings from becoming the greatest Boxing game ever.
