    I was always a sucker for fighting games; This K-1 World Grand Prix would seem excellent, I can't wait to play this myself.

  1. The game has a lot of atmosphere and more options than a typical fighter. However, some may be put off by the pace of the game the unknown format.
  2. There is not really anything groundbreaking here, but the element it provides does the sport justice and brings an entertaining time to the gamer. However, the lack of seeing anything new affects the amount of time you'll spend.

    It's not a button masher. Energy and strength must be conserved. The key to good gameplay is looking for and finding openings. Taking advantage of your opponent's weakness is the strategy that will separate the men from the boys.
