Ripten Review: Facebreaker

Ripten writes: "Facebreaker is a new boxing game from EA sports. Normally when I think of an EA sports game, I think of a game where they strive to get a realistic look and feel. I think of Madden and Fight Night and how the designers try to make the environments and characters as real as possible. The moment I looked at the cover of this game, I knew I was going to get something completely different.

Facebreaker feels like it was designed for anyone to start playing right away. Basically, if you can mash a button, you can play this game. The analog sticks are rarely used here as the concept is to inflict as much damage on your opponent as soon as possible. Buttons are just faster. But before you think you can jump right in and start throwing around haymakers (or as the manual calls them '"Heybreakers"), you have to build up that ability to wreak havoc."
