Alright, time for another NES review by yours truely, now what game should I pick? How about the good punchout known as Mike Tyson's Punchout!! Not that dumb Mr. Dream Punchout, nope, this is the more famous Punchout, time to get to the reviewing.

DIFFICULTY: 7
This game has one of the tougher challenges, especially deep into the later worlds, this game has the cheap moments, especially the fighting pattern of some fighters. Good thing there is a password for some games, but its a somewhat long password, so if your going to cheat and use the passwords, I would write it down before I start typing it in. Anyways, the first world is super easy, you shouldn't have any trouble with the first 2 fighters or even 3 fighters, world 2 gets slightly tougher and tougher and tougher, and world 3 is very hard, but you haven't seen anything yet. Mike Tyson is very tough, I have heard that he can knock you out with one punch for crying out loud! Practice makes perfect I say and study his attack patterns. You can beat him.

DEPTH: 5
You should beat the game in one sitting if you played it many times, there is only 4 somewhat short worlds, with at least 3 to 5 enemies to fight. No big worlds in this game, here is the list of enemies in each world.

WORLD 1: Glass Joe
Von Kaiser
Piston Honda (champion)

WORLD 2: Don Flamenco
King Hippo
Great Tiger
Bald Bull (champion)

WORLD 3: Piston Honda (2)
Soda Popinski
Bald Bull (2)
Don Flamenco (2)
Mr. Sandman
Super Macho Man (champion)

WORLD 4: Mike Tyson (Dream Fight)

This is the list of every fighter in every world, looks intimitation but it isn't anything to be scared of, it should be quick. At least to me its quick For those who haven't played this game, it should be beat in a couple of sittings.

STORY: 1
There is very VERY little story being told in this game, but according to a Punchout fanpage this is what the story is: "Little Mac is only 17 years old and lives in the South Bronx. He was nothing but a street fighter but his destiny changed when he met Doc Louis. Doc was a "heavy-puncher" in the heavyweight division, but began drinking and ended up in poverty. One day he saw Mac's fighting spirit and decided to make him a boxer. This was the start of their new life. Mac quit the streets, Doc gave up drinking and together they began their path to the world championship." That is the story, not brief but it is not told in the game whatsoever. So, this is an opinion on what the backstory is, so its unofficial.

ADDICTIVENESS: 7
You can be very addicted to this game, it is very fun to beat those enemies silly with your star punches and the ways you can knock them down and the ways you can earn stars as well, you will find yourself playing for hours to try to defeat Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream. Trust me, you will find that out very VERY soon once you play this.

SOUND: 7
Nothing too special about the sound FX in this game, its your standard NES sound effect, it doesn't seem too memerable, but the most credit goes to the theme music to this game, it doesn't change in the game, but you will not get it out of your head after playing this, that I will garantee you that. The fighting music, the title music, and the running music when you are traveling between levels with Doc on the bike and Mac running with him. That is retro games at its finest.

GRAPHICS: 6
There is nothing special about the graphics on this game, to be honest, its your standard NES game, with its NES sound FX and its attempts to be "real life" like its flashing of the crowd when a round is over, or even when you beat an enemy. Nothing special, I would say its your standard NES game graphics. Nothing too shabby, I've seen worse.

OVERALL: 9
Overall this game is one of the true classics for the NES, if you are the old school gamer or a fan of fighting games, you go over to the RGR and play this game NOW.

Thanks for reading and happy gaming!

Wow, your right. I never did notice this game isn't to deep. Great replay value though. Very thought out and organized review.
