S'évader de prison, c'est tout un art (d'ailleurs, les jeux vidéo en sont-ils un ?). La manière la plus connue d'y parvenir est sans doute celle qui a été utilisée par les protagonistes de Prison Break dans la série du même nom.

Mode Champion super prenant; Des graphismes sensationnels; Simulation; pas arcade; Une durée de vie assurée pour les fans

L'obligation de devoir se créer un compte EA pour jouer en ligne; Très (trop ?) difficile de se relever après un second K.O; Simulation; pas arcade; Pas de notice dans la boîte; Des icônes de sauvegarde et de chargement trop semblables

At the end of the day, Fight Night Champion is a brutal, bloody, and realistic romp through the world of boxing. EA Sports did a fantastic job of telling an actual sports story instead of just giving us a sports game to play.

The compelling narrative; The sharp; brutal graphics; The revamped control scheme

The near-worthless Legacy Mode; The lack of things to do outside of Champion Mode; The boring training mini-games

Sports series rarely require anything as outlandish as a story mode to keep it from stagnating. Fight Night Champion 's rise-and-fall boxing tale is a refreshing and welcome addition to the franchise.

Champion Mode's clever match variables; Simplified controls mean faster fights; Easy to pull off crushing; satisfying combos

Champion Mode's atrocious final boss; Disappointing multiplayer suite

Regardless of how much time you've spent with the Fight Night Champion demo, or with previous Fight Night games, your first act in EA Sports' latest boxing sim is to pick yourself up off the floor after getting knocked down.

Story-driven Champion mode is a great addition; Superb-looking fighters who take realistic damage; Flash KOs and knockdowns keep fights from being predictable; Spamming punches is no longer an effective fight strategy; Intuitive controls

Legacy mode's training minigames aren't much fun; Referee occasionally comes between the camera and the action

Fight Night Champion lives up to its boastful billing, and is easily the best installment in EA Sports' celebrated boxing sim series. Read the full review here!

Excellent feel and flow to the combat; visual tweaks make this the best-looking entry by a wide margin; Champion mode is a solid new twist on the formula

Boxing games are rarely story driven which is why I was curious to see how EA Sports handled a plot in their latest Fight Night game titled Fight Night Champion (FNC). To my surprise, it totally rocked my socks off.

Fight Night Champion is an odd one. In a sport ruled by theatrics and pomp, Champion is surprisingly brutal. That's not saying boxing is Knock-Em Sock-Em Robots played by media-gleaning prissy boys – there are a select few who are prepared to take the smacks to the face for the chance to wear that...

First Impressions My reaction is Fight Night has been around for a while now, and for as long as many of us can remember, it has been pretty good. Without a doubt the series has been the best out of every boxing game out there.

Another EA title, another chance to pay another subscription fee. This accessibility overview won't cover online aspects of Fight Night Champion, though with the way menus and gameplay are handled, it can be concluded that online interactions will be at a comparable level to those in the rest of the...

It's been almost two years since Fight Night Round 4 was released, and it's clear EA Canada has used that time wisely to create a compelling boxing game with an excellent story mode, fantastic visuals and accessible gameplay.
