![]() ![]() ![]() All you need to do is hit the other guy 10 times and you have a power up that will turn the tables or make the odds even steeper. Unfortunately, it's due to these boosts that combos and any other form of strategy are effectively thrown out of the window. If you continue to beat up your opponent, your power up will grow into a more powerful form, hence becoming even more useful to you. Once you score the first form of the power up, it's not time to activate it just yet. You gain these boosts by gaining stars, which come from landing punches on your opponent. There are a wide variety of them, from sucking the life out of opponents to turning your hands into anvils. One thing that does help add a little bit of strategy here are the power ups. Add the fact that many of the combos are unnecessarily difficult to execute due to the slow response times, and you have wasted potential. ![]() The combo system is nice, in theory, but it simply isn't needed in the УheatФ of battle, because if you want to keep up with the enemy, all you need to do is wail on the buttons, and you'll win. ![]() While it may sound like a deep boxing game in this regard, in reality this game is nothing more than a simple button masher. Every character has a lengthy list of combos at their disposal, its just unfortunate they aren't anywhere near necessary. Of course, no boxer game would be complete without the ability to launch some killer combos on your opponent, and Black and Bruised is no exception. You will find your expected lot of punches, including hooks, jabs, mid-section blows and upper cuts (the latter two are thrown using the face buttons in conjunction with the R1 button). Triangle and circle control you right arm, while square and X control the left side. The controls are play a large part in this overly underwhelming attempt at creating any type of depth. If this title had only one main flaw, it had it in the wrong area: the gameplay. This is no small task, and despite the noble effort on developer Digital Fiction's part, Black & Bruised manages to do little more than get through the opening rounds. The question was, how do you successfully make a game that can live up to the legacy of its predecessor? The answer was to simply take what worked in Punch-Out! and give it a twenty-first century make over. Early reports from the developer and publisher lead to some type of a frenzy over this game and how it might be the second coming of the extreme boxing genre. That title was, of course, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!.
