What a shame this never got made, looks like a dream boxing game.

Sorry to hear about this .. I was looking forward to playing this game.

One pledge from Lennox Lewis or Wladimir Klitschko would have paid for this game. Even boxers don't give a ****e.

dude wanted 500,000 to make the game .... not surprising at all that he didn't get it .... plus all he had was graphics he had not worked on a game engine at all

Shame, I have 11 guys on the "wait list", that know I'm on these forums daily just checking the status of OOTP Baseball, FHM, and of course here, to see if this game will ever get a "career mode". I keep searching the internet hoping I'll stumble upon something, but other than some MMO Browser based games, really isn't anything out there that I know of?

I know, I am dying to play a decent boxing management sim, there is just nothing on offer.

Title Bout to me, is just a fantasy match up simulator, like many boxers it's missing heart.

We really need a career mode option, but I guess the market does not justify the means to dedicate a full development team into the venture.

Not unless by team you mean one over-stetched programmer.

When Paul first took over Title Bout, I was hoping he would find a way to transfer the best of 2.0 or 2.5 over to the new platform, fix the few things not working, and then create the long-awaited career version. Unfortunately, it seems that this was not technically feasible and resulted in another version of the existing game with flaws apparently still intact and talk of a career version somewhere down the road. I can only assume the market is just not large enough to support the work effort required to complete the more advanced phase of Title Bout at this time. We need to hope for a big boost from the sport itself that would spotlight boxing and kickstart sales with a wider audience.

It is coming.... I am working on it now... I have got an overall design done and I am in the process of fleshing out the details and creating the game frame work....

Paul, i'd strip Muhammed Ali of his 'Greatest of all time' and give it to you, if you pull this one off

To Paul's credit, he is trying to make the game a greater game than it already is.
