The Fight: Lights Out Critic Reviews

The Fight: Lights Out is an ambitious fight simulator that sets out and accomplishes most of what it claims to do. Learning and fitness curves are high, but patience and realistic expectations produce some fine results.

This game has a lot of good features like its great Move support, big scaled action and different combat styles. Strange evading and moving just don't seem to fit in.

Realistic, addictive and brutally satisfying sometimes let down by the controls.

In conclusion, The Fight: Lights Out does push the PlayStation Move away from those cutesy children's games and gives more mature gamers an more adult option.

Sure, it's not perfect, and you'll need to be pretty fit to get much out of it, but for £30 RRP (it's available for around £24 online) there's a solid game to enjoy here – and if you come away aching half as much as I did you can rest easy in the knowledge that you're doing yourself some good too.

Don't take a less-than-great score for The Fight: Lights Out as a slight against the overall product. Though there isn't enough here to warrant the purchase price (a PSN release would have been fine, really), but in short bursts it's a blast.

Even though it may require some time and effort, The Fight: Lights Out is definitely worth a look... I think it earned a bit of respect.

"Quotation Forthcoming"

If it wasn't for the outdated Playstation Eye camera, this game could have been so much better. A killer app even...a thing Sony's new platform desperately needs.

The Fight can still entertain a crowd for all the wrong reasons.

The idea of this fighting game is pretty cool, but there is one major problem. The game can be played with the PlayStation Move en that doesn't work. The whole game is pretty cool, but the controls that doesn't work are ruining it.

Rocky Balboa you're not. The Fight: Lights Out is a sluggish game of boxing with less than impressive Move controls.

The presentation feels generic, with washed-out grainy visuals and a tepid hip-hop soundtrack, while the fighting never really finds its balance.

This fighting game offers some simple yet brutish fun, but poor controls and uninteresting presentation make it a struggle to get past the first few rounds.

At first, The Fight seems sloppy and broken, but with practice and patience it eventually evolves into a decent fighting experience. It's still not great, or even that good, but it is at the very least playable.

The Fight, then - possibly one of the better fighting games we will see for the Playstation Move, yet still utterly dull and repetitive. Consider giving it a rent, but nothing more.

The Fight is an exhausting experience, and in more than just the physical sense of the word. Its structure invites boredom, there's no narrative to speak of, and more importantly, the Move controls lack responsiveness.

The Fight is a good attempt for a more serious motion controlled beat-em-up game, but it is not one I can see myself coming back to that often if at all.

The Fight was a very expected game, but the final version is so generic with poor controls.

Unfortunately we just found the system makes the fighting itself feel quite alien and unsettling. It's that feeling of only partial control you get when you're reaching in from behind someone and using their own arms to teach them perform a task, combined with those dreams you occasionally have where your punches are all weak and flaccid despite the fact you feel like you're putting enough energy behind them to punch the rings off Saturn.
