	Fight Club for Xbox Review - Xbox Fight Club Review
		Granted, Fight Club is a modern classic, and its surprising story, dark humor, and graphic depiction of raw fistfights still hit home today just as strongly as ever.
		Fight Club's graphics are the best thing about the game, but don't take that to mean this is a good-looking game, either.
		If you ignore the fact that Fight Club ties into the movie (and novel) that bears its namesake, and consider it purely on its merits as a game, what you're left with is an undercooked fighting game that's far worse than fighting games from more than 10 years ago, and not much better looking.

	Salon Arts & Entertainment \| "Fight Club"
		"Fight Club" is at least the third major Hollywood film of the year to hunt for the hidden meanings beneath our affluent consumer society, after "The Matrix" and "American Beauty." It introduces a memorable turn-of-the-century masculinity guru whom you might call the post-boomer generation's answer to Robert Bly.
		Maybe 1999 is the year of the extended voice-over flashback -- like "American Beauty," "Fight Club" is narrated by a man in extremis, whose true fate is not revealed until the end of the movie.
		There are other similarities between "American Beauty's" Lester Burnham and the narrator of "Fight Club" -- both are white-collar ass-kissers who rebel against the emasculating conformity of their lives as minor cogs in the great engine of consumption.

		As the fight club's membership grows (and, unbeknownst to the narrator, spreads to other cities across the country), Tyler begins to use it to spread anti-consumerist ideas and recruits its members to participate in increasingly elaborate attacks on corporate America.
		He argues that these fights are a representation of the struggle of the proletarian at the hands of a higher capitalist power, and by asserting himself as capable of having the same power he thus becomes his own master.

		Yes and no. There is a resemblance between Fight Club and works such as Crash and Cocaine Nights in that both see the innocuous mundanities of everyday life as nothing more than the severely loosened cap on a seething underworld cauldron of unchecked impulse and social atrocity.
