Issue 0 (Oct 1985) (Amtix)   15th Jun 2016 02:54
Producer: Elite Retail price: £8.95
The object of Frank Bruno's Boxing is to defeat 8 boxers in succession in order to gain the world heavyweight title. To defeat a boxer you must learn their individual styles and then knock them down three times. This is done by reducing the opponent's status to zero (by repeated hits, when the punch power indicator reaches maxi-mum the right hook or upper cut can be used) but you must also dodge the other boxer's punch-es. Should your opponent knock you down three times then the game will fend.
When a boxer is defeated you will be given an EVBA code (Elite Video Boxing Association). This code enables you to access the next boxer, just enter the code and start the B-side of the tape but you must remember to always use the same name.
As Frank you have a variety of possible moves including: guard up or down, left or right punch and dodge, right hook, upper cut and duck. The type of punch delivered depends on whether your guard is up or down; if up then you will deliver a punch to the head, if down then Frank will do a body punch. The right hook or upper cut, as mentioned, can only be used when the KO indicator is flashing.
All eight opponents vary quite a bit in size, meaness and fight-ing styles. The first. Canadian Crusher, is big and lumbering but he's quite easy to defeat because of this. Fling Long Chop is small, fast and a master of the martial arts, beware of his kicks) Andra Puncheredov, from the USSR, is a fast dancing Russian who enjoys headbutting you. Tribal Trouble has a vicious temper and he lands punches with unnerving accuracy. Frenchie appears to be suave and sophisticated but is ready to make you see stars. Ravioli Mafiosi knows all the dirty tricks and is quite prepared to use them. Antipodean Andy is Australia's champ, he feels no pain. Peter Perfect is the current world champ and as his name suggests he is the most neat and accurate boxer in history.
Elite have transferred the arcade hit, 'Punch Out', brill-iantly to the home computer capturing the complex, anim-ated graphics and atmosphere. Each Doxer has his own person-ality which makes the game great fun to play. Frank Bruno's Boxing is instantly playable, very addictive and the variety of boxers makes for plenty of scope. Overall a polished game that most people should enjoy.
