"No such thing as a Bad Streets of Rage Game"
That is the perfect disclaimer :D
Yeah, I’m so excited for streets of rage 5
What's interesting about Streets of Rage 4 is that the game, even today stills get regular updates. Also, the soundtrack is brilliant. My favorite tracks from SOR 4 is Chow Time, On Fire, and We're Back.
I heard the first tunes of the main theme and knew instantly that it would be good
My favorite tracks from SoR4 are the retro tracks
@@CaptainSlapaDomeindeed. SoR 4 is utter trash. They new tracks suck and don't set the mood for anything, the retro characters havent gotten updated moves like in SoR remake, the level design is TERRIBLE, the monster immunity thing is a misfire, you can't run, there are no alternative routes to the end goal (even 3 had that to some extent), oh and the elevator level is a MASSIVE disappointment.
@@user-fr1ys2wn4tagreed
@@user-fr1ys2wn4t It's just a updated version of SOR2. Honestly I wanted to see the game progress into something further and not make think I'm back in 1994
The view on STOR 1 is undervalued. The game was ground breaking and amazing with arguably the best soundtrack of all the games. STOR 2 is the pinnacle game hands down. 4 is great but 2 is still the best.
the thing i dont like about 1 2 and 4 is that you can't RUN. that's the only thing i dont like about the games. WHY TF ARE THEY LITERALLY JUST WALKING?? 🤦♂️
i agree
12:55 Do *_not_* turn on the retro soundtrack. The majority of the songs are haphazardly placed, and they even had the nerve to add in some Sega Master system songs! Who was the genius behind that one?!
Streets of Rage 2 The King Beat em UP.
Streets 4 is better in every way.
@@tetermcyou must be young
@@stufeiner74524 is better and this coming from someone who played both 1 and 2 when they first came out.
@@tetermctrue
@@tetermcI liked 2 the best. You had a lot of variety with the way you played. You could play your characters that were supposed to combo or your bigger slow characters that would get big hits off, the music was on point. I’d listen to the streets of rage 2 music without the game, and the bosses were iconic. Very memorable
As someone old enough to play the originals when they came out, I agree with the order but I do think 2 has the best soundtrack. Great vid.
sor 1 has the best soundtrack 😊
SoR seems like a NES Game??? You didn't play It then. It blow our mind in 90s. And not an amazing soundtrack????? XDDDD
With SoR2 are the BEST OST of 16 bits era
Not having Skate in the new one is kinda wild.
I wish more classic games would get this treatment. Crisp art style, tight controls, headboppin music, a ton of well thought out call backs to rhe originals. This game is so brilliant. I just brought this game to my job and got a bunch of young guys to play (4player co-op) and they are in love with it.
Streets of Rage II will always be my favourite of the series. The worst out of the series is definitely Streets of Rage III.
Streets of Rage II
Streets of Rage
Streets of Rage 4
Streets of Rage 3
This ranking 👍
I need to play these games, but are u going to do anything on the golden axe games
Take that as a very good yes, lol. Well consider those games requested
I like the extra difficulty in Streets of Rage 3. Also like the better controls and more interaction. Only reason people who actually played Streets of Rage 3 hated on the game was because of the added difficulty and the music, which was really good also.
it doesnt feel as good thats really it street of rage 2 is a whole experience in itself sor3 felt pretty generic at the time
@@timboKong Streets of Rage 2 is overrated. Both 1 and 3 are equally great games. The jp version of 3 more so than the crappy us version.
that's it! SOR3 is the best of them all, and the experimental acid techno is so futuristic that people back in the days though it was dogshit but now people discovering this soundtrack are mind blown by it! And the difficulty fits so perfectly with the story and the music. Right off the bat, the first level on hard difficulty in the USA version is sick, with intense music, you have to go defuse a bomb and there is no time to f around! The game is throwing at you everything it got...the enemies are relenteless! I just love that game to death (obviously haha)
The music in that game was good but the problem was that they kept repeating the stage 1 theme like it was some kind of master piece for example when you fight shiva on one of the endings, what track does the game play? The stage 1 theme I mean I would’ve rather them reuse shivas theme from SOR2 if anything
sor3 is def a banger of a beat em up, but sadly the levels weren't a good as sor2 (combat arenas in sor 2 were kinda perfection though, even for today's standards) and the game wen't a little too far in the story department (of which was weird as fuck aswell with the whole robots thing).
The soundtrack was honestly limited for it's console. At the time i realy hated the ost, but with time i got to listen to techno and trance music in something less limited than the genesis chip, and even sor 4 shows that the genre is right at home with sor, the problem was the genesis soundchip. I'd love to listen a remake of the sor3 ost with a more robust soundscape, specially considering shit like tekken 6 electric fountain and sor4 chow time being some of the best stuff electronic music has ever graced my ears.
A shoutout to SOR Remake, an open source project that kept the Spirit of this series alive all those years!
Agreed
Yes! The project is full of love and respect to the official SoR. Just cannot be thankfull enough for SoR Remake
2 things 1st I would swap 1 and 3 imo I think they went over the top especially with the multiple endings, 2nd the bar under the "OK" is basically a freebie to use any special that cost health but if you use it while the bar goes back up you can still lose health using it
I grew up when 2 was the shit. And nowadays...I prefer 3...even though I think 2 has better controls.. the addition of special attack not killing you.
Puts 3 over the top for me.
Good review man. I like your videos.
Streets of Rage Remake is the best Streets of Rage game.
Easily
Definitely
I don't know if you have played it but you may like a video game called The Takeover. It plays just like a Streets of Rage game.
why oh why oh why is there no online co-op for that game. Also, Mayhem Brawler is pretty good too. but again, no online co-op for it.
@@DaveMire I'm bummed out that Fight N'Rage doesn't support online too.
I play that on shareplay with friends online
Don't really care about online co op but the Takeover is good alright the graphics especially
Imo I actually far prefer sor1 over sor3. Sor3's music and the tedious gameplay really killed it for me. I took the time to beat sor3, but I definitly wouldn't play it again.
Did u get all the endings? That alone made me not wanna attempt to beat it.
SOR 3 was a disappointment and while the music is divisive, I actually like it, although it’s nowhere near the level of SOR 2 or the first game.
Same i prefer sor 1 over sor 3 the same way i prefer street of rage remake over street of rage 4
@@sebastienluquet194 Remake sits at the very top. Classic.
yea sor 1 was game changer the best in my book
Love the commentary!.
Played Streets of Rage 1 when I was younger and I honestly forgot about the series until they realised the trailer for SOR 4. Was so excited when I got it on PC and I feel in love with the game. Still wished they included some form dogde mechanic but great game all in all.
Many Friday’s in the early to mid 1990’s were spent hurrying home after school waiting on my parents to get home from work and us going to Blockbuster or Fox Video so I could spend some of my allowance on a Freddy, Jason or Michael Myers movie, a couple video games (which one was always one of the Streets of Rage or one of the Road Rash games) and one of those huge bags of popcorn. DAMN I miss those days. But playing SOR4 brought back some of that nostalgia for sure
viewtuful joe is one of my favorite games of all time you think ill like this? also is it way harder than vj?
When you say how Street of Rage 3 difficulty is too hard, that's not how it was in Bare Knuckle 3 (japanese/original version). The US dev tweak the difficulty to the level where it became unbalance. Hard level impossible to be dealt with unless the player is a super 🤣
Plus the original version of SOR3 hasn't been correctly ported to the newer consoles. The sega genesis collection removed items and made enemies more difficult.
Totally agree I have an English translation of "Bare Knuckle 3" and the slightly easier game results in a more enjoyable gaming experience. Plus Ash is in there too😊
@@barryhennessy6351 yea, Ash was hillariously strong! I love play as him 'coz that's kinda add the insult to enemies' injuries 🤣🤣
IMO Bare Knuckle 3 is the #2 and then SOR4. I know you weren't doing fangames but SOR Remake is awesome
I utterly agree with this list! Though I never heard of the spin-off that look like a fan game… And you made all the points I hoped you made regarding each regional history! Especially as someone newer to this franchise. Glad you really played them through, and understood why they define the beat em up genre. I still think SOR2 had the best soundtrack in the series, but Streets of Rage 4 is FANTASTIC. Especially for a return to form. It has it all, and had meaningful refinements. As a long time fan myself, I was very happy with the 4th entry. I can confidently say it lived up to desired expectations. I wished we can have Streets of Rage Remake release for consoles, because don’t get me started how incredible that fan game is. I’m looking forward to TMNT Shredder’s Revenge.
I know this comment is 3 months old and you might know this now but that spin-off was a free game released by sega to celebrate 60 years of sega. it was on steam in 2020 but it was only listed for a few weeks and was eventually delisted hence why you've never heard of it
@@isthatasloths Ah okay. Thanks for the history.
A guy who had NEVER played Streets of rage until deciding to make this video, picks the modern version 😅😅
I really like Streets of Rage 1 , 2 & 3 so much. 😊😂 Funny moments when your character or others keeps getting hit all the time. Hahaha. Can't stop laughing about the hit and music sound effects. 😂
SOR1 is the 🐐
Now we need Golden Axe 4 please!
Sor 3 had a lot of levels vut they were behind requirements to unlock 3 different endings
3 is the best both in gameplay and versatility of characters. They can sprint, roll up or down, special has meter for free damage, and apecial skills gets better in each stages if not dying.
Street 4 is a disappointment.
Agreed
SoR 2 is one of the best games on Sega, and one of the best games ever made.
I remember renting SoR 3 from the video store and to this day, remember how hard that game was in comparison to 2
Awesome video
I can fight for days on survival, Streets of Rage 4
Great video, would swap SOR1+3 personally, unless you bring BK3 into the equation and I would place Sor2 at the top, but I know it's nostalgia.
I discovered streets of rage 3 at a fleamarket and got it for 8$ back in the 90s. Still own it to this day that and 1-2. Hands down 3 is the best no questions asked.
Agreed. Do you play on ps4 or 5?
Streets of rage, TMNT, final fight and double dragon r the big four of beat em ups. I love all them so much.
For some reason i think Street of Rage 3 was best among the series. It was fast it was challenging though its ost and character design wasn’t up to mark.
1 is my favorite, despite it's cheese and jank. I just find it funnest and it has the best soundtrack imo.
Streets of Rage 2 is my favorite game of all time
I do prefer Bare Knuckle 3, 'cause it brought me one of the best playable characters: I just have loved played with bionic grandpa Zan. The old cyborg rules, yeah!
How did you fail to mention, in the first game about the Yakuza, that everyone plays like Axel under the flaws section?
so ppl don't like 3rd game cuz of botched western release. I played japanese original first and i think it's better than 2, just objectively, more moves and characters and stuff, while core gameplay is the same.
I don't care about the changes on the releases because I think Bare Knuckle 3 isn't great either. I think the new character sprites aren't nearly as good and I hate what they did to the combat. They sped it up and botched the sound effects. The combat always feels unfinished compared to 2 as if it was rushed. And all the voices are pretty terrible in comparison as well. I'm not sure how all this happened when they added an 8 extra 8megs.
Same here. I grew up playing Bare Knuckle 3, SOR1 and 2. 3 definitely has the best gameplay of the first 3. Running is a must as well 💪
The ninja turtles game is really good made by the same developers
False
Bricks
Love Streets of Rage!! 2 is OG!!
Definitely going to look into 4, it looks really good!!
No existe un SOR malo,todos han sido excelentes..
SOR 3 is quite played it mania excellent
SOR1 felt like a nes game? I think if you weren’t around for the originals and seen the impact they made then you’re not qualified to rank them. U can’t just play them all last year and then make an order. You had to be around in the 90’s and judge each one based on ground breaking impact
Agreed. I love sor1
Streets of Rage 1 lives up to its name with the bosses and the jugglers. Like Sonic 1, the controls are horrific and sluggish, the mechanics are inconsistent, and it was clearly made in the quarter era where games are made hard to generate revenue.
I hope we will get a Streets of Rage 5, 4 was so awsome
Well, looks like you'll get your wish
came here to say this!!
@@relly66112
Bare Knuckle III would be the best game by far only if it wasn't that easy.
You can finish that game on hardest level without any skill whatsoever, just by mashing buttons.
Great game, but lack of challenge kills it.
Sor3 is the best in the series
@@raidenrbs I agree 🙂
@@raidenrbsagreed
Sad thing is that there aren't any original ports of sor3 unless you own the sega genesis version..
The collection on the ps4 stripped stuff from the entire series
@@Tiripsroirrawhow?
the problem with street of rage 1 is that it looks soo outdated even back then in 1992 .. its like 1 frame rate peer a second they were too lazy with it .. ( even though this game meant to be the answer from Sega to capcoms final fight ,, no idea how is that possible since final fight has a superior graphics & the frame rate was excellent ) .. i never liked it since the first i tried it .. but they improved every thing in 2 -3 .. for me 3 - 4 are the best of all time & its the real crushing answer to final fight ,, even though i have some complains about 4 being a short game for a blue-ray ,, i mean in 2020 " 3 hours " only game is unacceptable , besides removing the ability to run & some favorite characters are vanished like ( mona & liza , Sammy , ash & the kangaro ) plus i was expecting more of a movie cut scenes instead of a comic pics style ,, about street of rage 2 is pretty much ok for me but not the best ,, because ( again no running , AI is unfair , repetitive bosses , shorter gameplay & graphics are soo cartoonish comparing to 3 & 4 kinda matching more with kids than adult players ) .. 3 & the remake are perfect no complains for me
Agreed
Castle Crashers is another very good beat em up.
SOR2 SoundTrack is my Favorite 16 Bit SoundTrack of All Time and one of the Greatest SoundTrack in Music History
All SORs should be played in order to appreciate SOR2 especially SOR1 which should not be skipped, if anything SOR3 could be skipped
The first streets of rage is better than the third one. In fact if I had played the third one first when I was a kid, zI wouldn't have became a fan
Especial mencion to street of rage remake !
If i had to rate these games based on soundtrack id say sor3 is the weakest. Sor 2 is the greatest. Sor 1 and sor 4 is a gamble for spot 2 and 3 lol. But all n all i have a great love for sor 2 3 and 4 soundtrack. Sor 3 has a few good tracks that i still listening to
Even SOR1 is leagues beyond any brawler of the era.
1.SOR3
2.SOR4
3.SOR2
4.SOR1
Gekido is the best out of every bet up bad guy game I played
Number one should be the first Streets of rage which started everything!
As someone who owned Streets of Rage 2 back in 1992 back on release day; it undoubtedly is the best in the series for both gameplay and soundtrack with possibly the greatest boss theme ever with "Never Return Alive".
Streets of Rage 3, yes we know exactly why that suffered for its American & EU release but gameplay was an evolution of SOR2 and I loved the level design. However the soundtrack was awful.
I have played SOR4 into the ground considering I had initial doubts about it when it was announced and Cherry Hunter is possibly the best character in the entire series.
Streets of Rage 2 being the best with Streets of Rage 4 being the second best with the 1st game and 3rd game being my least favourite mainly because of the ridiculous difficulty, never played the camaracha spin off and I hope Sega releases this on the Switch.
What about the Master system editions :)
Why do I hear Mystic Ruins?
no 8 bit?
My ranking of the 1st 4 streets of rage games BEST to WORST

What do you think of my ranking? Totally Tubular Jonathan?
Have you put SOR2 1st or last place?
I've put SOR2 in last place and SOR1 in 1st place. What do u think of my ranking?
@@shawncanning5627 well i disagree. SOR2 is the best imo but it’s your own opinion.
My list would be
SOR2
SOR4
SOR1
SOR3
I would put 2 soundtrack as the best of all 4
sor 1 soundtrack was better go back & listen & compare
3:50 well, that's what sequels are supposed to do, improve on the original
I still think some OpenBOR games and the Streets of Rage remake are better than all of them. Streets of Rage 2X is amazing and is still getting updated by f-games, it has bigger, better combos, special moves, supers, blocking, dodging, counters, branching paths. Streets of Rage remake v5.2 also is great and closest to the classic experience, with all characters from all 3 games and some extra ones too, you can even play as Mr. X.
Talking about official beat em ups, in terms of combos and gameplay, Fignt N Rage is the best one, its way better than the new TMNT game and Streets of rage 4, although it deviates from the classic, simplistic button mashing experience. The amount of insane combos and things you can pull of is amazing, it even has a nice parrying system. I don't think that game gets enough credit it deserves. I believe a lot of people don't even know about that game.
I do too.
This is my ranking:
4. SoR 3
3. SoR
2. SoR 4
1. SoR 2
Streets of rage 3 america version is harder then sor2 mania and sor4 mania+ combined.
Sor1 has the best ost
Sor3 is sooo underrated
I wish sor4 was more like it with running, non linear plot ans absolutely crazy music
I actually appreciate the soundtrack for Streets of rage 4, because of how dynamic it is.
I recall running in the fourth game…
It’s underrated for a reason they botched the localisation of SOR 3 with that difficulty spike and overall it’s a step down from SOR 2.
@@delaceylehane7758with one character
I was lucky enough to have Bare Knuckle 3; so to me, the complains everyone in the US has about SOR3 are understandable, but it sounds like Bare Knuckle 3 was a tremendously better game than sor3 in the states.
Where's bare knucle mobile?
The original streets of rage 1 was the best
i still got my meadrive and street of rage, trow me 1000 i dont sell
i like all the games except the Yakuza version

Streets of rage 1 does not feel like a nes beat em up. What an utterly stupid thing to say.
Streets of rage 3 is better than streets of rage 2 cuz streets of rage 3 is the best game in the whole franchise.
Agreed. It's my favorite along with sor1
I got part 1 over sor3 plus you haven't played it as a kid
i dont agree with soundtrack for me the SOR1 is the best of the series
1, 2, 3, 4.
There was fan made remake, that was better them all. 4 was good once unlock classic axl but music sucked

did not play 4 but it looks worse than 3 IMO
I disagree with the list. Streets of Rage original game was far better than the 3rd game. It may not have looked as good, but the soundtrack was superior to any of the games.
My Top 4 SOR Games are
1. SOR2
2. SOR4
3. SOR3
4. SOR1
Same💪🏿
Sor 4 music is good but not better than 1 or 2
En el 2 y el 3 quitaron a Adam. Una lástima, era el mejor personaje jugable.
Agree with this ranking. That said, there were actually official versions of Streets of Rage 1 and 2 for Sega Game Gear and Sega Master System, respectively. None of these are quite as good as the Genesis SOR2, though SOR2 for Game Gear is very good, and I personally rank it above SOR1 and SOR3 for Genesis. In an unusual turn, the Game Gear and Master System versions are actually completely different from one another too, with the Game Gear versions being significantly better than the Master System versions. They've even got some unique content that's not in the Genesis games, like a crazy alien boss in level 3 of SOR2 for Game Gear.
It's funny to me, every ranking game video these UA-camrs start by saying, I never play this game before and then start ranking that game exactly the way Google would rank a game by collecting all player base like and dislike ratio,,
This video exactly like the usually uninterested UA-camr talking about something that he has no interest in other them using the fan base of that game for content, dude just keep saying I like this game but can't explain why I like it or why it's batter then others, and the reason basically is this guy never played SOR before making this video, and just using the game for content which I fucking hate, you can't even tell why SOR 2 is batter then 3, and the most hilarious part is that SOR 3 is harder then SOR 2 😂,
now this is where OG Sega player will tell you that you guys suck on playing games, because Sega normal games were more challenging then now days soul games
Original games:
Streets of Rage → fantastic game, unforgettable soundtracks and scenarios;
Streets of Rage 2 → a good game, good soundtracks and scenarios, but slow game;
Streets of Rage 3/Bare Knuckle III → the most misunderstood but with one of the best gameplay;
Streets of Rage 4 → What is this thing? Cartoon? My personal opinion, I didn't like anything about this game
fan games:
Streets of Rage Remake → a masterpiece without a doubt;
Streets of Rage X (or 2X) → another masterpiece by fans.
Hacks that if you not played you need to play:
Streets of Rage Killer Difficulty → if you like a real challenge, perfect for you;
Streets of Rage 2 Warriors of Fate 1000 Mans → quite challenging game with enemies that doesn't seem to end;
Streets of Rage 2 Ninja Warriors Once Again

Aí vai de opinião, eu já acho Streets of Rage 1 bem melhor q o Streets of Rage 3 e a trilha sonora do 3 é uma decepção já a trilha sonora do 1 é tão boa quanto a do 2 e no fato de ser desafiador é o mais desafiador dos 3, mas é apenas minha opinião
