The Sport Of The Future!
Speedball is the action sport of the 21st century. Wearing spiked armour bodywear, helmet and gloves, you'll go face-to-face with some of the ugliest, meanest goons in the world! Dodge neckbreaking tackles and bone-crushing body slams to pass a solid steel ball towards your opponent's goal. Hammer your foe enough times and he'll cry for mercy.
It's two games in one -- play either baseball or football in this game headlined by Bo Jackson. In baseball, you can participate in all the major parts of the ballgame, such as pitching, hitting, and fielding. The field is displayed in 3D using an engine called "3-D Sensation." In football, the field is displayed as an overhead view in 2D with tiny players running around -- a sharp contrast to the graphic style of the baseball portion of the game. The football game allows you to design your own plays and watch them with instant replay.
4-D Boxing leaves behind any pretences of being a pure arcade game based on boxing, and aims to recreate the sport in full detail. The graphics engine allows for multiple camera angles and viewpoints, and considerably detailed visuals. These required more advanced hardware than was common at the time, but a stick-figure mode was included as a compromise. The moves on offer include all the uppercuts and hooks of a real fight, and the players are designed to move realistically to implement them.
You progress through the game by taking on a succession of increasingly difficult fighters, and get to train your boxer in between. Advanced action replays are included as well, so you can review all that happened.
This four-player game approaches basketball with a more serious attitude than some of the more well-known modern basketball games. Control one of five players on your team: Dribble, pass, shoot into the basket for score! Now repeat.
