Olympics, Boxing and War

Olympics, Boxing and War

Here's a trio of fine box arts for your perusal, one from Australia and the other two are American. First we've got Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games.

Second is Victorious Boxers Revolution, coming to the US at last thanks to publishers XSEED.

Finally the History Channel's Battle for the Pacific.


Go Mario. Use the wrench.


Work in progress, they still need to color him in.


Good times for all involved.

Wow, was that game scheduled to be a release title before the Wii was renamed? ("Victorious Boxers REVOLUTION"). If so, it's pretty sad that it didn't get a publisher until now. Also if that's the case, it's beginning to make me wonder if it's even going to be a good game.

Actually, the History Channel has made at least one other game. The draw: it really WAS authentic. The problem: it really WAS authentic. The reload times were long, as per the weapons, most of which fired only one shot. Run 'n gun isn't as fun if you're constantly reloading. Another problem: the enemy AI was non-existent. I already know I'm not touching this one, mainly because I'm not a big war game person, but for everyone else's sake, I hope that the bugs have been taken out since the last time around.

I'm going for Mario too. Yoshi ftw. The other two games just look a bit cheap though.

Nintendo's had many more successes than Sega. After SA2, I lost interest in the sonic series. Go Mario.

Sonic for the win. Mario is too fat to win against him. Too bad for eating so much spaghetti and pizza and ravioli and macaroni and all that Italian stuff.

I'll be fair. Sonic will win running, cross country, track, etc. But Mario has got it in the bag for gymnastics, acrobatics, fencing (yes, fencing is in the game), and anything to do with fire. Sonic IS, after all, just fast.

Sonic is better, this game will be huge.

GO SONIC TEAM! Guys could you believe that the most iconic characters in the world is a big blue hedgehog running at super speed and an italian plumber? Who would think those ideas would work. Mario is fast for a fatty, but Sonic is WAY faster and cooler. No offense I also like Mario and Yoshi, but Sonic seems to win in every aspect except swimming.

If Shadow is on Sonic's team then Sonic's team would win everything because shadow is super fast and super strong.
