Fightbox

Game: Fightbox
Console: PS2/PC
Release date: Feb 6th 2004
World's worst video games score: 2.4 Absymal
Known Scores: Gamespot user review average 3.5,IC-games 28%
Review: With difficult controls, shocking AI and absymal graphics this is a game to miss. Fightbox is a beat 'em up style game. You design your virtual gladiator then battle other gladiators in the arena. The controls are very unresponssive and sluggish. Making it dull and frustrating to play. Even the choice of characters is limited, theres lightweight, mediumweight and heavyweight with each category having only 5 fighters. IC-games pros and cons just about some this game up:
Pros
# I do not have to play it anymore
Cons
# Some poor sod will

Fightbox? How about leaving it in the box?
More information:
This game was one of the few games that remained European exclusives. It was based on the BBC program of the same name.
The programme was reported to have cost up to £4 million to produce, but drew in an average viewing figure of just 22,000 people per episode, meaning it was costing £126 per viewer. According to the Guardian, the show peaked with 56,000 viewers, but subsequently viewing figures were the lowest recorded, with just 6,000 tuning in, a figure leaving it close to a zero rating in the BARB audience measurement system.
Sadly,There are no plans for any future series.
