Graphically, Mike Tyson Heavyweight Boxing is passable, but never impressive. The stretched-out appearance of the PS2 version is history, and this version doesn't slow down nearly as much, either. The boxer models still look weird, though, and the animation is pretty jerky. The game's sound is also completely underwhelming. The game's box touts "commentary by Ian Darke and Bobby Czyz," but in practice, that amounts to a broken, stunted sentence or two between rounds and after the fight.
The game features a handful of different modes, and there's even a ton of unlockable items to be found that can be used to customize your own boxer. Unfortunately, the game plays so poorly that you'll never feel compelled to actually trudge through and see what it has to offer. Anyway, the unlockable items and light improvements on the essentially broken PS2 version don't do anything to salvage this game. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for boxing excitement.
