You maybe already aware that i am a fan of beat’em’up arcade coin-op games like [Streets Of Rage] . And i just want to report that i found another hidden gem in this genre, called [Final Vendetta] developed by [Bitmap Bereau] UK game studio, which focuses primarily on doin’ pixel art games pretty much for any console on the market, even vintage ones, like [Neo Geo] ! The game is done completely obeying the trends of 90s, has stunning pixel art graphics, fluid animations, groovy rave beats matching aesthetics of the era and it looks like that it is very hard to beat!

As a former fan of side-scrolling beat’em up games i surely remember [Streets Of Rage] series on Sega MegaDrive platform. In some regions it was also known as Bar Knuckle. [Streets Of Rage 4] is a modern continuation of vintage trilogy of 90s. High quality hand-drawn animation and brand new soundtrack [with ability to switch to original Streets Of Rage themes] do the thing and mark Streets Of Rage 4 as a worthy continuation of original SOR trilogy.

It will be prohibited not to mention about Streets of Rage II ► favourite beat’em’up of my childhood. First three parts are classical arcade machine stuff, they pretty similar to each other. Last one is a fan-made project with new graphics and design. STREETS OF RAGE II STREETS OF RAGE IV EVOLUTION OF STREETS OF RAGE 1991-2021
