    Real Steel does not look good, has no story, is extremely difficult, but for a quick fight between friends, it's quite okay.

Multiple times. The fighting system is actually way more fun and in-depth than you might be led to believe and there are a few different ways to tune your bot.

    It's a shame the game's been discontinued and can't be bought anymore.    … Full Review »
