Dynamite Boxing (ダイナマイトボクシング, Dainamaito Bokushingu), known as Victory Boxing 2 in Europe and Contender in North America, is a sports video game developed by Victor Interactive Software exclusively for PlayStation in 1998.

Reception

The game received mixed reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.[3] Next Generation said, "From the uninspired graphics to the sloppy and ill-thought-out gameplay, there is nothing in Contender that stands out as being particularly good and quite a bit that is actually painful to experience. Sony should be ashamed of inflicting this abomination on the gaming public."[12] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 21 out of 40.[7]

Notes

  1. ^ In Electronic Gaming Monthly's review of the game, one critic gave it 5.5/10, two others gave it each a score of 7/10, and another gave it 5/10.
  2. ^ GamePro gave the game two 3.5/5 scores for graphics and sound, and two 4/5 scores for control and overall fun factor.
