EA's Fight Night returns in its second installment. Once again you can create a new boxer and start a career that begins as an amateur in a shady gym somewhere in Queens NY and fight your way up to the top. Alternatively you could relive the careers of some legendary boxers. Of course you could go for a simple match with either a computer or a live opponent. Round 2 offers many new features like fancy particle effects that show blood and sweat spraying into the camera in ultra slow-motion. The "Total Boxer Control" which lets you throw punches by making certain movements with the analog stick has been improved. There are also many ways to customize the appearance of your character up to the shaping of the cranium and ears. The soundtrack consists of a dozen contemporary (but unfortunately edited) hip-hop tracks.
