READY 2 RUMBLE: Round 2 is the perfect sequel. The designers kept the intuitive gameplay, outstanding design and animation, and cast of characters from the first READY 2 RUMBLE, and they've delivered updated moves and boxers that result in a lot more fun. Just like before, players have low and high punches, lefts and rights, and they can attack with combinations and flurries. Building up a character from scratch consists of taking part in seven real-life boxing exercises: jumping rope, the heavy bag, the speed bag, the sway bag, rumble pads, lifting weights, and aerobics. These exercises are actually mini-games, which you can't slough off; you've got to do them well to get the benefit of the exercise. In the ring you can land a series of solid punches and build up your RUMBLE power. Once all the letters of RUMBLE are lit, you can punch your opponent out of the ring and practically into the parking lot.

Pros: great look, great effects, keeps your interest
Cons: limited characters and abilities
The Bottom Line:
Great concept and great characters... a classic!
This is one of the classic fighting games! The characters are really funny, and are fairly user-friendly, especially to start off with!
The look of the game is crisp and loading times are quite minimal.
The moves are a bit limited, but then so are most boxing games... no real amazing magic moves... but that is okay, it is not the focus on this parody of boxing.
You get a real feel for not only who you are playing, but also who you are playing against... there is real rivalry... and it is great as a multi-player game too!
What is also a lot of fun is when you get to train and fight with your own personal fighter you bring from the ground up... the best part of that is you really get a good feel for the game as a whole.
