Gameplay

FaceBreaker has a "cartoony" artistic style (similar to Punch-Out!! and Ready 2 Rumble Boxing) and allows players to break their opponents faces as the game feature 'real-time facial deformation'. The game also uses the same face-capture technology as Tiger Woods PGA Tour to allow players to capture their own image using peripherals the Xbox Live Vision Camera and the PlayStation Eye. The game also contains a "Couch Royale" mode in which friends can compete in a tournament-type game mode.

Reception

FaceBreaker FaceBreaker KO Party Wii IGN

G4's X-Play gave the game a one out of five, citing the broken AI being so difficult to beat to the point where it makes the game basically unplayable. IGN.com rated it a 5 out of a 10. Game Informer however, gave it a rather positive 7.75 out of 10.

Aaron Thomas at gamespot.com gave the game a poor review, scoring it a 3.5/10. Thomas felt that the game featured, "cheap AI," "very few game modes," and "bad, button-mashing gameplay." He did say of the game that, "it looks pretty good, and the deep customization options mean you'll never want for new brawlers..." However, "unfortunately, there's nothing fun to do with your boxer."

Matt Cabral in his Xbox 360 review of the game for teamxbox was overall favorable, scoring it a 7/10. He said that, "the game actually becomes quite satisfying once you climb the steep learning curve." He did note of the games difficulty that, "while the controls aren’t complex, FB’s AI boxers give you little room, especially early on, to learn them. Their endless pummeling will leave many frustrated far too soon." He ultimately stated that, "there’s no question FB has style to spare... those willing to put up with the early beatings will find lots to enjoy both offline and over Xbox Live."
