Final Fight: Streetwise - Don't Call it a Comeback

Final Fight: Streetwise launched back in 2006 as an attempt to bring the series into a more modern era. It failed, but did it deserve to?

Underrated comment. Shows many here are super young.

.Also when this track came out in 1990 Djs would buy the 12" record but most people would buy the cassette single because most cars and Boom Boxes did not have a CD player at that time.

It's rocking its peers and putting suckers in fear.

I was DJing in the biggest under 21 nightclub in New England when "Mama said Knock you out" came out back in 1990. When I played it you can literally feel the ground shake with 2000 teenagers jumping up and down to this track! Good times back then .

Indeed! I'm a 90s kid through and through, and this song is on my workout playlist.

Urban Reign was clearly better, combat feel was more fun and had Tekken character unlocks. And the arena battles in multiplayer or against AI was hella fun.

Retro Review: Final Fight: Streetwise

Jerry Dobracki from Bagogames writes, "A few months ago, I went down memory lane and decided to play one of my favorite button mashers, Final Fight on my Super Nintendo. That nostalgia prompted me to go out and look for more Final Fight games seeing as I only had that one in my collection. My hunting around used games stores and thrift shops helped me find a title that I knew existed but hadn’t had time to play, Final Fight: Streetwise."

I bet Poison is KayoPolice's favorite character in the Capcom universe.

Poison's a chick but cause of weak sauce censorship in the west cause beating up a women is bad she was changed to a dude.

So this debate is all cause of p***y bureaucrat...go fig.

BubloZX4821d ago

If that's the case then I guess android 18 in dragonball z was a guy in the US by your reasoning too. Did you even watch the video? Japan even labeled her as a tranny long before a US release.

If you read these parts Akira Yasuda 'stated' Poison was a tranny....well of course since he is sitting in the same room with a playtester who complained. Like he was going to reply she was a girl for it may prevent the game from releasing in the west.

Android 18 is a robot, that was made very clear so there is a difference not a lot but still a difference. Hitting a 'robot' is easier to digest than 'hitting' a flesh & blood girl if you describe it as that.

My point is that occasionally so called 'bureacrats' get involved in stuff that they should mind their own business that is all.

BubloZX4821d ago

Actually android 18 is a Cyborg. A android is completely mechanical, she and 17 were still capable of breeding just like all other organic life form. They where humans before they where robots

Dasteru4821d ago

@BubloZX: Not quite but they are similar. An Android has a biological exterior and living brain but has a mechanical skeletal structure and all mechanical organs. Basically a living machine that started out as a real person. A Cyborg is almost entirely biological with the exception of mechanical additions grafted onto the pre-existing body. an example of a cyborg would be Will Smiths character in I-Robot because of the hydraulic arm. A robot is entirely mechanical.

Dasteru4821d ago (Edited 4821d ago )

@izumo_lee: Did you even watch the video? The original concept art for the game listed Poison as transgendered long before the game ever even came out or became a controversy. In order for you're argument to be valid, Capcom would have had to travel back in time to make the changes.

Android 18 is an Android, Not a robot. There is a difference. In one of the episodes she reveals that both her and 17 used to be a real people and that Dr. Gero TURNED them into androids. Cell is the only android that is completely artificial.

JoeSchmoh4820d ago

Yup, censorship pretty much. so they changed the character into a guy when it came out here in the states. Same with Shen Long who was originally an April Fools joke in a videogame magazine back in the 90s called EGM. Saying you can fight him if you get all these perfects and super finishers. LOL

JohnnyMann4204821d ago

Capcom already answered it. She/he is both and neither. They have created a paradox and don't want to offend anyone so they officially said he/she will never be revealed as either.

LX-General-Kaos4821d ago

If Poison is a man.. Then that is the most beautiful man I have ever seen.
