Early box sim, pretty ambitious for its time
What TV Sports: Boxing wanted to do was actually create a fighter game that hinged as much as it could to simulation, tried to be as faithful to the actual real sport as much as it could manage. How much could it do that? Well, I'd say, with the resources it had at its disposal in 98, it was pretty close, pretty out there! Now, does that mean that, today, you'd go out and play it and not feel as if the game is aged or not that satisfying? Well, it sure doesn't unfortunately... TV Sports: Boxing is surely ambitious, but it is aged, kind of taking all the good and nice bits that has and throwing them out the window. So, yeah, the animations are alright, and the way the boxers are drawn can be quite interesting, as they are pretty well animated, but I also feel that today, most players would just see them as too plastic like, too unrealistic. Then again, no other game can really stand up to TV Sports: Boxing in 98, so, I think that it was the king of the hill back in the day, but today, yeah, you'd have to be quite patient and forgiving with it, to let it grow on you. Oh, but if you like it, do try out some other TV Sports titles as well, as these surely were all pretty good for their time.
