![]() ![]() While today Capcom is more known for its overabundance of Street Fighter and Resident Evil sequels, back then they were revolutionizing the Beat 'Em Up genre. They took what Double Dragon and Renegade had started, and sought to improve and innovate. While Bimmy and Jimmy were basically just palette swaps, Guy, Cody, and Haggar were three unique fighters with different movesets and styles. Of course, contrary to the name, it wasn't the final Final Fight.Īlso, what other game lets you play as a hulking, pro-rasslin' mayor beating his own citizens into submission? The answer is Final Goddamn Fight! The sound of the hits was bone-rattling, and the music was simply badass. There were sequels and spin-offs out the ass. ![]() Many members of the Final Fight cast would even go on to become mainstays in the Street Fighter franchise. Guy and Cody appeared back in the Alpha series, along with Sodom and Rolento. Later on, others such as Andore, also known as Hugo, Poison, and Abigail would square up in the iconic tournament fighter. (The Nerd holds up copies of Final Fight: Streetwise and Final Fight: Revenge) The Nerd: So what in the holy name of shit happened to Final Fight? Capcom jizzes out tons of Street Fighters and Resident Evils all the time, but why aren't we getting any new Final Fight games? Was it actually final? I mean, even Streets of Rage, a game that was meant to be a competitor to Final Fight, is actually still going strong with a fourth title just released. The Nerd: Well, here I have the two Final Fight games that any fan of Final Fight will tell you fucked the franchise into oblivion. They were released just over six years apart and were created by the same developer, Capcom USA, also known as Capcom Studio 8. So, here we have Final Fight: Revenge for the Sega Saturn, and Final Fight: Streetwise for Playstation 2. The Nerd: We'll start with Final Fight: Revenge. Now, you'll notice by the jewel case, that this is a Japan-only release. #FINAL FIGHT STREETWISE TRAILER BLUETOOTH#. ![]()
