Streets of Rage 4- Video Games As Art
I have a lot of affection for the Streets of Rage series. Punching people and laying the smack on ruffians, hoodlums and street rats reminds me of my youth and seemingly simpler times. I played the first two games to completion many times with my best friend at the time. We loved the amazing soundtrack which chimed with our interest in trance, dance and garage music from the mid-to- late 90s.
It was with bated breath that I waited for Streets of Rage 4 and I was not disappointed, the game is stunning, the soundtrack pumping but most importantly the fighting just feels right. Check out screenshots from my first play through.
