    While loading up Real Steel, I went into it thinking that it was just another app of trying to cash in on a movie, without putting in any real effort. And I must admit, I was wrong in every way.

    Movie tie-in's can sometimes be terrible games, rushed out to promote a movie, but this near-future robotic boxing game is reasonable– Mostly because robots fighting makes for a decent game.

    If Urban Champion was about robots and made today for the iPhone, it would be Real Steel.

    Real Steel is a mixed bag of great presentation, cool robots, slow predictable fighting and horrendously repetitive crowds.

I'm not sure how much they have paid to get their critic reviews done but this game is a shame. Everything from graphics to collisions to control..everything sucks. This can be one case study to understand how not to make a game.… Expand
