Fight Club
About the Game
Fight Club is based on David Fincher's film adaption of Chuck Palahniuk's novel of the same name. Fed up with consumerist American culture, a fight club is founded as a new type of therapy through bare-knuckle fighting. The game focuses on the fights and uses many characters and environments from the original story. You can create a new fighter or clone one of the generated characters.
Story & Setting
Aside from the regular arcade, survival and training mode, there is a story mode in which you need to work your way up as a rookie to become a key player in Project Mayhem in a storyline very loosely based on the original plot.
Gameplay & Core Systems
There are three general fighting styles to choose from: grappling, kung fu or brawling. The moves range from basic punches to devastating moves with broken bones, ripped clothes and real-time facial deformation. Both the PS2 and Xbox version have an online multiplayer mode as well.
Standout Features
- After each successful fight, you earn Character Development Points (CDP's) which can be used to upgrade or heal your character.
Modes & Ways to Play
Player support includes Same/Split-Screen and Free-for-all / One-on-one (VS).
Presentation & Atmosphere
The game music has tracks by famous bands such as The Dust Brothers, Limp Bizkit, Korn and Queens of the Stone Age.
