Today I spent a bit of time on a conference call with Matthew Seymour, Executive Producer on 2K Sports’ upcoming boxing title, Don King Presents: Prizefighter. The first bit of the call discussed the game, then it turned into a confusing rant from the mouths of Don King and Larry Holmes. I spent half the time laughing because I had no idea what they were saying and what was going on.
Anyway, let’s get to the game. There is plenty of competition in the boxing arena with the Fight Night series, but Prizefighter looks to stand out by offering a huge, dramatic experience in the career mode. In a move never been done before, 2K is telling your story through a sports documentary centered around your character. In what should take about 15 hours to complete, real video will discuss your character’s career from the perspective of Don King, cut men, girlfriends, etc. Sounds terrific to me.
