We Will Rock(y) You!
"It's not about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit."
The greatest underdog story of our time is back for one final round. Or so the trailer for Rocky Balboa, the sixth and final film in the Rocky series, tells us. Ubisoft has got the game rights and is releasing a title on the PSP to coincide with the film's arrival in January.
The film depicts the last stand of Rocky Balboa, working class hero and all round champ. After a sports channel shows a simulation of Rocky fighting current champion Mason "The Line" Dixon (we think they probably used a PS3 bought on eBay) the public's interest in Rocky creeps up. Before you know it the Stallion's up for one last denture-crunching fight.
Details are still scarce on the release. The available screenshots depict Rocky against Clubber Lang and Ivan Drago from the third and fourth films respectively, so SPOnG's presuming that more than just the latest film will be included. It could lead us to further speculation that the title ports content from Rocky: Legends. But SPOnG doesn't go in for that kind of negative presumption.
For all things Rocky, keep checking in on our dedicated Rocky Balboa page.
Anyway, while we wait for more details: "Let's start building some hurting palms!" Or thumbs. Whichever.

Damn, Ubisoft are all over the place, but I must say, I'm glad to see this game on the way. Enjoyed the last Rocky game a lot. I just hope this has the cool training sections like the last game.
Another chance for a Wii version here and there is none. Damn you Ubisoft. Oh well, can't have everything.
