I personally am not much of a gamer, but I absolutely loved playing Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions. I had so much fun that I even got my kids in on the action.

Sounds/music from the films bring back memories of Rocky preparing for his ultimate test.
The controls are easy to use, graphics are bright and colorful, and overall play is truly entertaining. I’m used to the days of your character (player) dying/losing life with a few hits from the opponents, bringing your game play to a halt. Not the case with Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions. Player longevity is a key factor. The game doesn’t end right away, giving your player a chance to get back into the fight.
The only drawback that I have at this point in gameplay was the training exercises that appear throughout the game. They seemed rushed and forced, mere seconds for each activity.
Aside from the minor complaint about training, I really didn’t find too many faults in the game thus far. The combos offered in attack mode are easy to navigate, gameplay is self-explanatory and the bouts are fairly competitive, making the matchups that much more interesting.
Pick it up and play today.
