“Ready 2 Rumble Revolution” is coming to the Nintendo Wii in March, but this version will be unlike any other. The boxers featured this time will be caricatures of sixteen celebrities including John Travolta, Brad Pitt, David Hasselhoff, Sylvester Stallone, Shaun White, Simon Cowell, Justin Timberlake and David Beckham!
The game, which is being produced by Atari and AKI, chose the celebs with everyone in mind.
“We went with a decent mix of mostly modern, mainstream people that I think much of the younger generation will recognize and know, but then we also went to the other end and grabbed characters that we think some of the older people will recognize as well,” producer Todd Slepian told the press.
The team creating this game hoped the celebrity-inspired characters would add humor and mass appeal to the game.
I think it could be quite fun, but I’d need to play it before I can make any decisions about it. It also sounds a little bit like a rip-off the the MTV claymation show Celebrity Death Match.
Still, David could whip Justin Timberlake and Simon Cowell any day.
