Prize Fighter (video game)

[2] Played entirely from a first-person perspective, the game casts players as an upstart boxer known as "The Kid", who must fight a series of opponents (played by Jimmy Nickerson, Manny Perry, Billy Lucas and Ben Bray[3]) and win the championship.

Prize Fighter was the pack-in game for the X'Eye, alongside two non-gaming software titles.

As The Kid, players face four computer opponents: George "Honeyboy" Hernandez, "Mega" Joe Falco, T. Rex Hawkins and the champ, Nuke "the Duke" Johnson.

[6] GamePro compared it favorably to the acclaimed boxing film Raging Bull and praised the responsive controls and realistic graphics.

While admitting that playing the game was a matter of pattern memorization, he called it "a very challenging title requiring you to pick up on each of the boxers' styles and moves."

The player is represented by the pair of gloves at the bottom of the video window. The health of the player and opponent are indicated by the face icons at the corners of the screen.
