    Less a rise to glory and more a stumble towards modest success, Creed feels good but lacks the depths of its closest rival, Knockout League. It’s good fun and a visceral experience, but it’s over too soon. [Issue#155, p.90]

    Creed: Rise to Glory is superb as a boxing simulator, but it’s almost non-existent in its storytelling. The spirit of Creed and the Rocky franchise isn’t just in the fights, it’s in why they fight, and that’s something this game completely fails to capture.

    The game’s most notable problem is that its gameplay lacks narrative context. Over the course of the two-hour-long campaign you just complete some enjoyable minigames at the gym, fight nine times in the ring, listen to Stallone impersonator mumble some nonsense and wonder what was the only retrospection about.

    CREED: Rise to Glory can be entertaining, but the PS Move’s inability to track things properly makes it hard to call this a good game. A thin narrative and smattering of other shortcomings detract from the overall experience, but it's not a disaster by any stretch – just not worth its full $24.99 price point.

    The tracking is auful and makes the game unplayable. Not mention the game gives you a body that feels really off

    While definitely not what I call fun, Creed makes for an outstanding way to catch up with your lagging new years resolution. Just add wristWhile definitely not what I call fun, Creed makes for an outstanding way to catch up with your lagging new years resolution. Just add wrist weights.

    Creed will find you working your upper body into soreness and your cardiovascular system into overdrive.

    Graphics are clean if basic. The set pieces are a bit under populated. The career mode is sparse to say the least. All that said what it lacks in aesthetics and over the top presentation it makes up for with mostly solid controls and hit detection. Being staggered and knocked down result in odd mini games that seem a bit too distracting and counter immersive but fit well enough into a video game representation of a boxing match.

    Game earns a solid 7. It presents a very good, albeit short, basic foundation for a potential sequel to followup with a blockbuster knockout. Rise to glory just needs a bit more training before it is ready for a real title match.    … Full Review »

    Survios uses the PlayStation's Virtual Reality's potential to create a fun, innovative boxing experience. While graphics are nothing special,Survios uses the PlayStation's Virtual Reality's potential to create a fun, innovative boxing experience. While graphics are nothing special, it did not matter much due to the smooth, realistic gameplay. One setback that I had is the lackluster career mode, with the repetitive pattern of meeting up with your trainer, montage training, knock out your opponent, and repeat. Not a huge KO, but a solid attempt for a VR boxing game.… Full Review »
