  1. 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.
  2. The technical issues and unambitious design come with a chaser of charming silliness. [Apr 2006, p.97]
  3. The game itself isn't bad in structure and gameplay, but the camera system pretty much dashes all of Final Fight Streetwise's hopes of being a decent title.

    Don't buy this if you love Final Fight; it will ruin your perception of the series. Stick with the original SNES and Arcade versions; this is no fun. Expand

    This game pisses me off. It feels like they didn't know what they wanted to be. The fighting sux too. At least there's an old-school 2P Arcade Mode saving it from being a total waste. Expand
