Fight Night - Atari 7800

Let's get right down to it - this is a terrible game. A one-on-one boxing effort, characters are named things like "Spankpants" (not really) and "Dipstick" (actually, that one is real). The fight itself consists of two badly animated figures swinging randomly at one another, most of the hits seemingly connecting while the characters are nowhere near one another. Every time you land a blow, one of the bars at the top fills up. I assumed when the bar filled up, the opponent would hit the deck - imagine my dismay, then, when I filled up a bar, nothing happened...and then five seconds later the other guy knocked me out.

There's a training mode involving punchbags or something, but I switched it off long before I could see anything like that. Avoid.

Score: 1/5
