Posted Feb 13, 2004 6:01 pm PT We've recently added a developer interview and some new gameplay movies of Fight Night 2004 to the game's media page, and today we got our first chance to take the game for a spin on our own.
Fight Night's game modes include a career mode, which lets you create a fighter that you build up over time to hopefully one day get a shot at the title.
Since the game's AI is relatively simple, you'll quickly learn all of the little tricks that'll lead you to a win with little or no thought put into it at all, which ultimately makes R2RB: R2 a game that's better suited for rental than purchase.
