Product Details of The Con

Description

Set in a seedy world of illegal, underground fighting tournaments, The Con is one of the first 3D beat-'em-up adventures for PlayStation Portable. The long-term goal of the game is to increase the wealth and status of the player's character, an ex-con who is a regular participant in the criminal brawling circuit. The player's fighter can specialize in one of five traditional styles: boxing, wrestling, kickboxing, Tae Kwon Do, or Jeet Kune Do. Wagers are placed the matches, and the player's character can bet on himself to win. He can even throw a fake punch or take a dive from time to time, to influence the odds and increase his profits. Multiplayer fighting is supported over a local wireless connection, and two PSP players can compete in a demo version of the game using only one UMD copy.
