    Final Fight was a classic and Streetwise is a long way from some of the crummy remakes that seem to be springing out lately, so if you're the type to go into everything fists flying, then Travers is the perfect character for you.

    While Streetwise's story progression is well thought out, the presentation and implementation of the game engine is sorely lacking.

    A slightly below average game with some okay fighting action, a nice arcade mode if you're playing co-op and some adult situations that sometimes cross the line into the land of overkill.

    If there's any good reason to purchase, rent or even borrow this game, I haven't found it.

    Final Fight Streetwise sticks true to the original arcade. If you're used to playing GTA, you'll have no problem with the camera. Impressive storyline. If you're a fan of the original Final Fight, you'll slowly but surely see the resemblence, and will love it. Great game! :)… Expand

    The game's music is pretty good, and the combos are cool, having a neat little 'buying moves' mechanic from a gym. While the story is absurd, and there are some sound and cutscene glitches if you play this on a PS3 (Or 360, for that matter), this game is still a goofy, over-the-top experience worth a rent, but not worth a permanent place on your shelves.… Expand
