I just beat the Career Mode in Creed. My chest is still heaving. I'm still dripping from the shower I had to take after ripping the headgear off my face. My ears are still ringing from the roar of the crowd and the sweeping tones of the "Rocky Theme".
Also, my wife is still shaking her head slightly. She was sitting at the kitchen table making preparations for next week's Daisy Scout meeting while I gyrated in the living room talking to Rocky. The television was turned off, so she had no idea who I was talking to when I howled "B***h! B***H!" into the empty room. But whatever, I'm awesome.
A full review is coming sometime next week after I have a chance to mess around with the online PVP (which I imagine will reduce my awesomeness by several points). But I can say right now that Creed: Rise to Glory delivers a pure rush of boxing adrenaline, and while I really, really enjoyed the career mode, I immediately craved more. Here are some things that I demand (please):
Obviously, I could go on. The list is endless. The robot from Rocky IV? What about James Brown to sing in the ring before the fight? Adrian?
I banged the drum for months about getting some Next Generation DLC for Star Trek: Bridge Crew, and look what happened! I take full responsibility for bending the universe to my will on that one. And now, I will begin firing mind bullets at Servios, in an attempt to get more Rocky content. Wish me luck!
