Console Monster: FaceBreaker Review

Console Monster writes: "FaceBreaker from EA games is a return to the little seen arcade boxing genre, last witnessed in the Ready-To-Rumble series on the Dreamcast and Super Punch-Out on the SNES. This is cartoon fisticuffs, and couldn't get anymore removed from the realism of EA's other boxing title, Fight Night.

The game can in no way be accused of being overly complicated, there is a very simple interface presented to the player. It's a case of picking a play mode, picking a fighter, picking an opponent, picking an arena, then mashing buttons as fast as possible until the opponent is dazed, confused and badly bruised. Fights go on for three rounds; to win an opponent must be knocked down three times. Fail to do this and the game enters sudden-death mode, where the first person to get a knockdown is victorious."
