Streets of Rage (Bare Knuckle in Japan) is a series of side-scrolling Beat 'em Ups made by Sega for the Genesis/MegaDrive. Set in the fictional Wood Oak City, it stars three ex-cops, Axel, Blaze, and Adam. With the help of some friends, they set out to free their town from gang violence.As often happens in these types of games, the series was pretty grounded at first, but it got campier as time went on: The mob's reach is long, and many criminals have weapons and powers bordering on the fantastic. The boss behind the crime wave, Mr. X, is one of the more-persistent video game villains, eventually being reduced to a robot and a Brain in a Jar. Even after he becomes Deader than Dead, he is survived by two children, Mr. and Ms. Y, who fill the void in Streets of Rage 4.Games in the series Streets of Rage, released in 1991 and first entry into the series, which follows the adventures of the three ex-cops trying to stop the syndicate that has wormed its way into the Wood Oak City. Allows you to play as Adam Hunter, a boxer, Axel Stone, a martial artist, and Blaze Fielding, a judo expert. Each character has a power, speed and jump attack stat, graded from A to C. For example, Axel's high attack and good speed stats let him hit hard and move around quickly, but his poor jump stat means some enemies can counter his jump attack. This was the only Genesis installment where Adam was playable. Streets of Rage 2, released in 1992. The story to this one sees the return of Mr. X, who kidnaps Adam as revenge for what happened in the first game, baiting Axel and Blaze to save him. Two new characters were added: Skate, Adam's younger brother, and Max "Thunder" Hatchett, a wrestler who is friends with Axel. The game has bigger sprites, and the characters' movesets and differences were expanded. Rather than a screen-clearing special attack, the characters have individualized special moves at the cost of a bit of health. Streets of Rage 3, which was released in 1994 and where the series gets a little... weird. The plot features public officials being replaced by robots with our heroes trying to track down who's responsible. Axel, Blaze, and Skate are joined by Dr. Zan, a cyborg with electrical powers. Two boss characters are also secret playable characters.*Three in the Japanese version. The special move system was modified somewhat in this game so special moves now only cost health when used before the charge bar at the top was full. The entire storyline in Streets of Rage 3 was essentially rendered non-canon in Streets of Rage 4, which clearly references the Bare Knuckle 3 plot instead. Streets of Rage 4, released in 2020 on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and GOG.com after years of rumors and cancellations. It's a co-production between Guard Crush Games, the team behind Streets of Fury, and Lizardcube, who previously revived another Sega property with the 2017 remake of Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap. Mr. X's heirs, Mr. and Ms. Y, try to continue where he left off. The original trio, Axel, Blaze, and Adam, return in response and they are joined by new characters Cherry Hunter, daughter of Adam, and Floyd Iraia, cybernetic grappler with connections to Dr. Zan. New gameplay systems include a juggle combo feature that lets you bounce enemies off the edge of the screen or other objects in the environment and a modified special system that allows you to earn back the health you spend to execute the move. You can also cash in special star items to perform an even more powerful special attack that blasts enemies nearby and sets them into a juggle state. A DLC expansion called "Mr. X Nightmare" was released in July 2021, featuring a Survival Mode, new moves, and boss characters Estel Aguirre, Max Hatchett, and Shiva getting Promoted to Playable. Streets of Rage Revolution, announced at the Game Awards 2023, along with several other classic Sega series getting new games. Little is known about it so far besides Axel returning and the game taking the series into 3D.Since the original Streets of Rage was released shortly after the Super Nintendo Entertainment System port of Final Fight, the two titles were seen as dueling games during the 16-bit era, as Capcom would later produce two straight-to-SNES sequels to Final Fight around the same time Sega released their own Streets of Rage sequels for the Genesis.note Although the Sega CD eventually got its own port of Final Fight as well.If you want to try out the first three games for yourself, these options are available: for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, you can purchase Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection containing all three games in the series. The second game is also available on PlayStation Network while Xbox Live has Sega Vintage Collection: Streets of Rage, a compilation of the first three games with added features such as trial challenges, online multiplayer, and ability to play the Japanese and European versions of each game. For Windows PC users, the entire series can be purchased on Steam individually or with the SEGA Genesis Classics Packs (Pack 4 has Streets of Rage and Streets of Rage 2 while Pack 5 has Streets of Rage 3). The first two Streets of Rage games are also available on iOS and Android. Stereoscopic 3D versions of Streets of Rage and Streets of Rage 2 were available for the Nintendo 3DS via the Nintendo eShop until its closure.On April 18th, 2022, it was announced that Streets of Rage will be getting a movie adaptation. According to an exclusive on Deadline, the script is being handled by John Wick creator Derek Kolstad. Sonic the Hedgehog (2020) producer dj2 Entertainment and The Equalizer producer Escape Artists will produce the adaptation.In 2011, Spanish fan developer group Bomber Games released a fan remake called Streets of Rage Remake. Tropes for that game go there. | |

Earn Your Bad Ending | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_132e865c | comment |
Earn Your Bad Ending: Getting the good ending is as simple as beating the game. The bad ending, however, requires a bit more work. First, it can only be attained in a two-player game. Second, when Mr. X asks the players to work alongside him, they must each reply differently, at which point they duel to the death. Finally, when Mr. X asks the surviving player again, they must reply no, and then defeat him as usual. The reward for this is a screen of the surviving character sitting in Mr. X's chair, while the game declares "You became the boss! You are great!" | |

Tamer and Chaster | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_146e133b | comment |
Tamer and Chaster: 4 is kind of zigzagged. Characters in skimpy attire from older games like Blaze and the Suzie mooks were grandfathered in more-or-less as is. However, several female characters created for 4 went through multiple revisions, most of which were less fanservicey than the one before. Blaze's design was left mostly intact, but they added her leather jacket during the final revision of her appearance. Before that she was bare shouldered. The character that would become Cherry wore hotpants, rollerskates, kneepads and a bikini top. Cherry's original look was just her loose yellow T-shirt, with a lot of cleavage visable under it. The next revision added a skimpy sports bra, and the final version added a practical sports bra. The Sugar bikers were originally going to wear thigh high boots and a leotard. There was a female mook at some point in development that was going to combine shorts, a skimpy top, and a longcoat. She then went through a couple much less skimpy revisions before being dropped. This mook may have eventually evolved into Dylan, since they both had the Japanese Delinquent vibe. Ms. Y, and Diva and her clones, aren't precisely chaste, but they're dressed a lot more conservatively than characters created for 3 like Suzie and 3's version of Electra. | |

| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Aside of having a heavier soundtrack and grittier graphics, SOR3 is also more serious story-wise, and the Syndicate has been upgraded from merely organized criminals that rule the city to a downright arms dealing terrorist group. It is also the only game in the series with a secondary character (Police Chief) dying on-screen (as opposed to disappearing bodies), and one of the darkest of possible endings in the series. | |

Unstable Equilibrium | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_17975d1b | comment |
Unstable Equilibrium: The star system. Survive well and you'll rack up the points needed to get stars. Die frequently, and you'll never see them, or lose them all and never get them back if you had them. In fact, especially on the harder North American version, it is entirely possible to have a lot of experience with the game, but never even hear of the star system. | |

Power-Up Letdown | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_18683fc2 | comment |
Power Up Letdown: A few Survival perks fall squarely into this. The Heat Of Batte, for example, drops your damage by 90% but gives you a stackable 2% boost to damage for each hit in a combo. It takes a combo that's 44 hits long before you start dealing damage equal to or better than you'd be without it, and 99 hits before your total damage starts to exceed what you could have done without the perk. Few strategy guides recommend taking it, for obvious reasons. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: SOR1 had two. One where you beat Mr. X and save the city, and one which could only be reached in co-op mode, by having one player refuse Mr. X's offer to join him, and have another accept. After a fight to the death, the winner fought Mr. X and became the crime boss in his place. While SOR2 lacked multiple endings, SOR3 had no less than four of them. One was reached by beating Stage 5 on Easy, where the robot Mr. X insults you and Zan declares that they must try harder. One had you going to the White House/City Hall to destroy the impostor General/Chief. A final battle with Shiva ensues, and a bad end is shown where Zan attempts to interrogate Shiva as to Mr. X's whereabouts. Shiva doesn't spill the beans, leaving the gang at a dead end. One where you destroy the final boss and save the city from the bombs/prevent general death and destruction around the world. And a bad ending where the final boss is beaten but time runs out. The bombs explode, people die, the city gets ruined and the trust the people of the city placed in Axel and the gang is damaged. BK3 attempts to soften the blow by stating that either way, nuclear war between America and Lima has been prevented, and though the bombs wrecked the city, the people forgive the heroes since they tried their best. Even the bad ending in Stage 6 got censored, but only for the image that displays behind the text. In the Japanese version, a picture of the bombed city appears. In the U.S. version, it's just a black screen. | |

I Surrender, Suckers: The stronger variants of Nora/Electra have a tactic they like to use on you: kneel down as if they're feigning injury/surrender and then attack you while your back's turned. | |

Lawful Stupid | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_1e12b5b7 | comment |
Lawful Stupid: Estel fights the heroes simply because she thinks they are breaking the law and ignores them when they try to warn her about the Syndicate's plans. Once she sees Mr. Y blow up a train full of civilians just to kill the heroes, she immediately drops the "stupid" part and assists the heroes in a later stage. | |

Power at a Price | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_1ebbdddb | comment |
Power at a Price: Some Survival perks grant significant benefits while also giving huge drawbacks in exchange. For example, Ground Level boosts your damage, defense, and walking speed while taking away your jump, and Blood Thirst adds a Life Drain effect to your attacks while preventing you from healing from food. While rare, it's possible for a post-stage perk selection to contain nothing BUT these. | |

A number of unlockable alternative Blitz, Special and Star attacks in 4 further reference other fighters and beat'em-ups: Axel's 4 version gets a Special Shoryuken that's similar in function to Ryu's while the 3 version's more closely resembles Ken's, the 2 version's alternate Star attack is similar to Shinryuken and 3 Blaze gets a 1:1 Blitz copy of Andy's Chou Reppadan under that exact name. | |

Balance, Power, Skill, Gimmick: In Streets of Rage 2, Axel is the regular street brawler, Max the hulking wrestler, Skate the fast kid using spinning techniques, while Blaze has catfighty moves with high range and a better knife swing. In Streets of Rage 3, Max is replaced with Zan, a cyborg with electrical powers who's playstyle revolves mainly around crowd control, essentially taking the "gimmick" role. In Streets of Rage 4, Axel and Blaze remain largely in the same place, with Cherry taking Skate's place as the fast kid (replacing rollerblades with a guitar) while Floyd is the Max replacement. Adam, for his part, is a stronger variant on Axel. | |

Palette Swap | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_2557e3a9 | comment |
Palette Swap: Mooks in general will come in different colors to signify their strength. The fourth game takes it a step further by making enemies with different colors having different attacks. The Dual Boss in Round 5 in the first game are a pair of Blaze clones. They return again in the final area with different colors. Playing as the same character in the third game's dual mode will have one of the players playing as the color swapped version. If you play as Estel, (modern) Shiva, or (modern) Max in the fourth's game story mode, the boss fights with those characters will have the boss using a neon colored skin so that the boss is made clear to the players. | |

Limit Break | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Limit Break: Specials are treated this way in 1. A police officer will drive onto the stage and launch a powerful napalm that kills all enemies and does a lot of damage to bosses. This can only be used once per stage until a pickup is found (which is rare), or if a continue is used. It can't be used in the final stage. Star Moves in 3 are turned into this in 4. All characters have a brand new powerful move that can break through any and all enemy defenses, but this costs a star to use, and more can be picked up in every stage. The 1 incarnations of Axel, Blaze and Adam in this game retain their original police special as this. | |

Breaking Old Trends | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_311500f5 | comment |
Breaking Old Trends: The fourth game does some things different from the previous ones: You can continue from the current stage you lost your last life in and can even choose to use assists to help you if you're struggling. The game does offer a classic mode that uses the old school rules from the previous games however. Mr. X was usually the Final Boss who would send waves of mooks at you before and during his fight. In the fourth game, Mr. X is no longer around due to being killed by the heroes in the third game. Instead, you fight Mr. X's children who are fought separately and then together as a Dual Boss in the final stage without using any mooks for assistance (they do summon help in their solo fights when playing in multiplayer however). While extra lives can still be earned after reaching certain thresholds for your score, they no longer appear as items. You can save your progress and continue later, a feature that the previous games did not have. | |

If the one who tried to accept wins, Mr. X will ask the question again, but if they deny now, it's taken as meaning they'd rather kill Mr. X and take his place entirely. | |

Recurring Boss: Both in the same game and across the series in some cases, with those that become degraded bosses italicized in the game the degradation occurs: Barbon: 2, 4. Appears as the first boss of 2 and the fifth boss of 4. Abadede: 1, 2: Was the third boss in SOR1, and was quite pitiful due to his simple pattern in battle. In SOR2, he was the fourth boss, and became one of the toughest bosses to fight because of his high health, strong attacks, and his ability to counter damage easily with an attack of his own. Bongo: 1, 2, 3, 4: First considered a boss in the original, became a sub-boss in the original as well, and then he had his appearance greatly changed, appearing as Big Ben. Jet: 2, 3: First appeared on the second stage of the bridge in SOR2, where he had low health. He returned in SOR3, but the last battle took a heavy toll on him; he was bald, lethargic, and needed an oxygen mask, possibly being revived as a cyborg. He was much more difficult, however, as he had more attacks and mooks with jetpacks themselves. Shiva: 2, 3, 4: Appeared as the penultimate boss in SOR2, where he was notable for his speed. In the third game, he is the first stage boss, but this battle is only a warm-up for the real boss battle in Stage 7 (if you fail to complete the previous mission in time). In the fourth game, he's the Stage 6 boss. Onihime/Mona and Yasha/Lisa: 1, 3: Both incredibly hard bosses due to their fondness for highly damaging moves and the fact there's two of them against you. Mr. X: The first three games. In 4, you will fight the Commissioner and Estel in stages 2 and 4 respectively, and then both of them return for a Dual Boss fight in stage 7. | |

Smart Bomb: In this game, you're able to call upon another squad car for support.

Macho Camp | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_4257cdf2 | comment |
Streets of Rage 3's storyline changes the game slightly to remove the intro featuring Wood Oak City being nuked by a Rakushin bomb, changed the General to the Chief of Police, and removed the nuclear war storyline in favor of putting a corrupt impersonator and robotic copies of the city officials to further Mr. X's plan to weaken the city's law enforcement, as well as many dialogue changes, resulting in some dialogue making little to no sense.note For example; in Round 1, Zan instructs the heroes to interrogate Syndicate mooks (which they fail by virtue of beating them all up), where in the original, Zan simply gave them the heads up that they'll be in for a fight. And the most egregious is in the alternate Round 6 where the Chief of Police is said to be a robotic impostor (when it's actually the flesh and blood Shiva in disguise) In addition, the dominatrices wore jackets, Blaze, Axel, and Skate swapped colors so Blaze wouldn't wear red (despite wearing red in previous games), and Macho Camp Ash was cut (he still existed in the game's code, but you had to use a game enhancer to use him). Oh, and they did a paper thin job of disguising the White House as a generic City Hall. Also, the Bad Ending to stage 6 isn't as subtle in the Japanese version. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: The first Streets of Rage, which was developed in-house by Sega, differs greatly from the sequels which were all outsourced. Whereas the sequels play like typical post-Final Fight beat-'em-ups, the combat system in the original Streets of Rage feels much closer to the original Golden Axe. The game's UI and fonts are considerably different, not featuring the iconic font used in all subsequent games and only giving lifebars to bosses. Instead, a font that looks more like an italicized Golden Axe HUD font is used. The UI at the top of the screen also used a gray box for a background, which made the viewable portions of the screen smaller. Later games would remove the box and give players an unobstructed view of the background. The first game is also the only installment where you can summon a cop for an on-screen nuke attack. This was replaced with a personalized special attack in the later installments. However the fourth game does bring back the cop summon for the SoR1 retro characters. The pepper spray and broken bottle weapons also appear in the first game only. VS mode, which became the norm in the sequels, doesn't exist in the first game. note Technically, there was a pseudo VS mode, but it could only be accessed in co-op and reaching the final boss with one player accepting Mr. X's offer and the other player refusing, which resulted in a fight to the death between both players. Blaze's character design is also different; the first game has her with black hair, a headband, wristbands, shoes, and her top is more covered. Later games would give her brown hair, ditched the bands, swapped the shoes out for boots, and changed her top to give her a more exposed cleavage and exposed stomach. There's only three playable characters instead of the usual set of four. This would also be Adam's only playable appearance until SOR4. Likewise, the first game showed what hobbies and interests the heroes had and this concept was dropped afterwards until the fourth game brought it back. Certain enemies like the jugglers and the kung-fu kicking mooks only appear in the first game and were not brought back in the sequels. Fan favorite recurring boss Shiva did not appear in the first game. | |

Fan Translation | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_4f9892c3 | comment |
The storyline of Bare Knuckle 3 involved a convoluted plot of a powerful thermonuclear material called Rakushin,note The term was first translated as such in the Fan Translation of Bare Knuckle III and subsequently canonized in official English scripts by Floyd and Dr. Zan's in-game profiles in Streets of Rage 4. In the lengthy real-life gap between the third and fourth game though, it was translated as "Raxine" by Bandai Namco Entertainment in Project × Zone 2., fear of nuclear war between America and the fictional country of Lima, and the disappearance of a respected General Ivan Petrov, who has been replaced by a robot duplicate designed by Mr. X to instigate said war. | |

Do Well, But Not Perfect | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_5049f19d | comment |
Do Well, But Not Perfect: An unfortunate one due to an arithmetic overflow glitch. Getting too good a combo can sometimes cause the bonus to go negative if it would otherwise be higher than 32,767 points — in other words, you get a higher score by getting smaller combos or deliberately allowing them to get broken. This usually happens on high levels on Survival mode from the DLC where there are bonus multipliers and the buffs allow damage and combo counts in the thousands. | |

| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_51567188 | comment |
Cast from Hit Points: Starting with the second game, a special attack replaces your police backup. Using it drains your health, but gives you invincibility during its duration and either is typically stronger than most attacks on the character's moveset, or has increased range. Streets of Rage 3 added a special bar that charged slowly between special attacks and depleted with its use. How full the bar is determines how much health the special attack drains; if the bar is full, no health is drained. Averted in the Game Gear version of Streets of Rage 2, where the attacks don't drain health, making Axel's blitz attack even more of a game breaker. 4 modifies the rules again. Special moves once again always consume health to execute but instead of outright draining your character's vitality, it's taken as provisional damage instead and if you can hit another enemy while the green part of your health bar is still visible, you'll earn back the health spent. You can abuse specials as much as you like but it increases how many foes you'll have to beat on in order to get it back, which also increases the risk of getting hit by someone and losing all your green health (in addition to the damage they do). In Survival mode, one of the post-level perks is "Old-School Rules", which removes the provisional damage mechanic but gives you a 30% reduction to special move health use in exchange. | |

Obsessive-Compulsive Barkeeping: In the second section of SOR2's first stage. Once your fight with Electra starts, though, the man takes off running... and is later revealed to be the stage boss. Roo in Streets of Rage 4 takes the boss's spot as the barkeep while said barkeep is still the boss of the level. | |

Non-Lethal Bottomless Pits: In stage 3 of SOR3, there are several pits that you and enemies can fall into. If you fall in, you simply respawn with a lot of health lost, unless the damage was enough to outright kill you. Averted with enemies; if one falls in, they die instantly, even if they have multiple life bars! | |

Shiva: 2, 3, 4: Appeared as the penultimate boss in SOR2, where he was notable for his speed. In the third game, he is the first stage boss, but this battle is only a warm-up for the real boss battle in Stage 7 (if you fail to complete the previous mission in time). In the fourth game, he's the Stage 6 boss. | |

Nostalgia Level: Many areas in the second game are reminiscent of areas from the first game. The lift in 3's fifth stage is also nearly identical visually to the one in the last level of 2. There are four arcade machines in 4 that warp the player to retro boss fights from 2 if hit with a taser. | |

| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_581f6468 | comment |
Hero of Another Story: Adam in 3 and 4 Aside from delivering two Big Damn Heroes in 3, in the Good Ending path, it is implied that Adam went through the bad end route while you deal with the main threat, and single-handedly took down the syndicate covering the City Hall/White House and the 'phony General/Police Chief' (which, by the way, is Shiva). This is shown in the Japanese version where he explicitly talks about the fake general/chief already being apprehended. Taken further in 4, whereas after fathering Cherry, he's Still Got It and capable of kicking syndicate members ass while likewise saving the group from a police ambush. | |

Police Are Useless: Subverted. Not only are the main characters cops, but in the original game, one special attack (usable once per life per level, with the player able to gain additional uses with Power Ups shaped like small cars) involves a police car driving up from the left side of the screen fire explosives, taking health from all enemies.

Time Skip: This game is set ten years after the conclusion of 3, which sees our previous heroes much older (Axel's gotten a bit chubbier and is now sporting a beard, Blaze and Adam both look more mature, Max is sporting gray hairs, etc.) and the offspring of both the original protagonists (Cherry Hunter, Adam's daughter) and antagonists (the Y Twins, the children of Mr. X) take starring roles. Although that isn't nearly as much time as what actually passed in real life since 3. | |

Excuse Plot: The series overall uses this. To wit, even with some detailed cutscenes in 3 and 4, the plots of each games can be summed as such: 1: "City is corrupt. Save the city by kicking syndicate ass." 2: "Syndicate is back and Adam has been kidnapped. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the city and Adam?" 3: "Syndicate is planning to bomb many cities, according to defecting cyborg scientist Zan. Kick their asses before that can happen." 4: "New generation of Syndicate rises after years of peace. Kick their asses again." The survival mode added later states that after the Y twins were apprehended, the heroes undergo a simulation by Dr. Zan to keep their skills honed just in case, which is just an excuse to justify the survival mode. | |

Covers Always Lie: Most of the stuff pictured on the overseas packaging illustration of the first game doesn't appear in the game, not to mention Axel's yellow shirt and Blaze's white gym clothes.note Still, they reoccur in the localization of 3, in-game. | |

Colour-Coded for Your Convenience | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_735b4101 | comment |
Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: Axel is associated with blue, Blaze with red and the Hunter family (Adam, Skate, Cherry) yellow. That trend was broken in III, at least in the west, when the heroes had different colors. It's restored properly in 4. 4 makes use of color frequently for gameplay tells. For weapons on the floor, a white flash indicates the weapon is new while red means the weapon has been used and will not last much longer in combat. Additionally, enemies will briefly flash red when they intend to grab you or white when currently in armor frames, while player characters will flash gold when their haymaker is charged, green when they've recovered all temporary health, or red when they lose it. The bonuses points for combo damage are sorted like this: White: no bonus. Yellow: nice! Orange: great! Green: super! Blue: excellent! Purple: amazing! Pink: sick! Red: out of this world! | |

Better the Devil You Know: Shiva's main reason for dissociating from the Y Twins is their obsession with mind-controlling everyone in the city, making them much less appealing than working for their late father, Mr. X, so he respectfully encourages the heroes to defeat them. | |

New Jack Swing | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_77012704 | comment |
New Jack Swing: The series' music, particularly the first two games, leans heavily into the NJS sound of the 90s, specifically taking cues from UK band Soul II Soul and American producer Teddy Riley. And while 4 leaned towards more contemporary sounds, it didn't abandon new jack swing completely, as the game's menu and ending themes can attest to, along with a few boss themes. | |

The Lethal Connotation of Guns and Others | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_77059ab0 | comment |
The Lethal Connotation of Guns and Others: All the bosses are various types of badass with various methods of using their fists and feet. Mr. X, being an expy of the final boss from Final Fight, just packs a cool suit, infinite mooks, and a Tommy Gun. The front end hurts like hell, and the back end halves your health. This is because unlike that crossbow-wielding loser, Mr. X is made of hair gel, capitalism, and badassery. His son Mr. Y packs an Uzi with similar lethality. | |

Black-and-White Morality | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_7abd339f | comment |
Black-and-White Morality: The series is pretty clear-cut with regard to the morality of the heroes and villains. This game shakes things up a little with several crooked cops who would attack both the players and syndicate members led by Estel as the 'grey' area, since they were under misinformation that Axel and friends were also one of the bad guys for their violent approach against crime. Some of them are also implied to be the result of being bribed by the Syndicate. | |

Too Awesome to Use | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_7d561d58 | comment |
Too Awesome to Use: The 8th stage (Art Gallery) has a golden chicken statue that can be picked up and thrown at enemies. It's the most powerful weapon in the entire game that can One-Hit KO any regular enemy in that stage. However it can only hit once before vanishing, so you're better off just taking it with you through the stage and saving it to do obscene damage against Beyo and/or Riha at the end (and you even get an achievement for bringing it to the room they're in). | |

Mercy Invincibility: When you lose a life, your character comes back by falling from the sky and all enemies on screen are knocked down to prevent them from ganging up on the player who just respawned. Also, most bosses (and some Mooks) either have an invincible move they use while they get up, or this, preventing you from trapping them with a punch or grab. | |

| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_83edb5ab | comment |
Difficulty by Region:,The Japanese version's Normal is the North American version's Easy, Japanese Hard is North American Normal, and Japanese Very Hard is North American Hard. Also, in the NA version, enemies inflict more damage on higher difficulties, which does not happen in the Japanese version. On the flip side, performing special attacks in Streets of Rage 3 costs much less energy than in Bare Knuckle, and the sidestep actually works properly. Astute players eventually start thinking of their lifebar as offensive power. | |

Life Meter: A standard in the series with some changes in between games. Only bosses had health bars in the first game and they changed colors first before properly draining once their health got low. The second game has mooks and bosses with multiple life bars colored in blue and drained to red while a single star represented a full life bar. The third game keeps the same life bar system for enemies, but made the multiple life bars be signified with a number of "lives" and the bar drains from yellow to blue until they're on their last bar. Weapons also have life meters in the third game to represent their durability. | |

Character Customization | |

Character Customization: Mr. X Nightmare adds in Survival Mode, which lets you pick a random upgrade out of 2 or 3 choices for the rest of the run for every level you clear: in addition to the general elemental effects described below, they also include increased attack and defense, upgradeable Player Mooks, stronger upgrades with an obvious drawback as well as more temporary upgrades, such as 3 extra Stars to use your Limit Break with or golden weapons with greatly increased damage and durability. Gaining enough points in Survival will permanently unlock alternate versions of Blitz, Special and Star moves for that character in every mode, assuming they have access to them: all 4 characters and Roo from 3 get an alternate version of all 5, everyone else from 2 and 3 get everything but the air version of their Special and the 1 characters only get an alternate Star move instead of the Police Summon they normally share. | |

There was a female mook at some point in development that was going to combine shorts, a skimpy top, and a longcoat. She then went through a couple much less skimpy revisions before being dropped. This mook may have eventually evolved into Dylan, since they both had the Japanese Delinquent vibe. | |

Invulnerable Attack | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_8bc0317a | comment |
Starting with the second game, a special attack replaces your police backup. Using it drains your health, but gives you invincibility during its duration and either is typically stronger than most attacks on the character's moveset, or has increased range. Streets of Rage 3 added a special bar that charged slowly between special attacks and depleted with its use. How full the bar is determines how much health the special attack drains; if the bar is full, no health is drained. | |

Hard Mode Perks | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_8dc2b0f2 | comment |
Hard Mode Perks: Harder difficulty levels generally throw in extra enemies to keep the player on their toes. More enemies means more points to earn, which means a very skilled player can rack up extra lives much more frequently than they would on an easier difficulty. | |

Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: Vehelits. While in the middle of an amusement park in battling thugs, you suddenly fight an attraction that resembles an undead alien dragon. The Syndicate doesn't seem to have any involvement with it at all (though it's implied they're likely controlling it from within the attraction as a means to take out the heroes). | |

Then he beats the absolute crap out of you because he's got anti-air attacks, insane reach and quickness, an overpowered grapple, and is generally considered the toughest opponent in the game bar Shiva. | |

Strong Flesh, Weak Steel: How do you break through concrete barriers and keep that bulldozer from squashing you? Simple. By punching them. You also routinely punch robots to death, while taking a whirling spiked ball on the chin. A special attack or even a well timed jab can deflect thrown knives, kunai, axes, lit torches... Pretty much everything except bullets. | |

Major Injury Under Reaction: Very common in this game. The mid point for the first stage alone has a car crash into a wall and hit three mooks, who, aside from briefly being knocked down and losing a chunk of their health, get up like it's no worse than your fists. A couple of stages involve crashes so bad you start laid out on the ground with a reduced health bar, but with the ability to immediately proceed, wipe out waves of punks, and reclaim that health in no time. | |

Damn You, Muscle Memory!: Picking items up is a separate button from attacking for practical purposes, though there's an option to merge them like in the older games if you prefer. Likewise in the reverse, many players found themselves mashing the grab item button while playing the previous games that don't use it. There's also the SOR1 characters who do not have a special attack and pressing the special attack button makes them use their star move instead. Woe to anyone who haven't used those characters in a while and forget that fact. | |

Arrested for Heroism | |

Arrested for Heroism: Running around beating criminals up as a civilian, even with good intentions, is illegal. The 4th game sees the police arresting Axel's group at the end of Stage 1 for exactly for this reason. Stage 2 has the group rampage through the police station, beat up all the cops and criminals in their way, and escape at the end of the stage, causing the police to target the player characters for the rest of the game... even if it's also because some of them (particularly the Commissioner) are on the Syndicate payroll. | |

Press X to Die | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_9918518b | comment |
Press X to Die: In the first and third game, throws cannot be performed on the "Big Ben" type of enemy (and in certain cases, boss). However, rather than just disallowing throws on them, the game instead has these enemies crush the player any time they try a throw, doing a fairly large chunk of damage. And just to mock you further, the fat bastards will laugh at you if they squash you... or pretty much taking damage from anything in their sight. It's a bit of an annoyance for people who have played Streets of Rage 2, where the "Big Ben" type enemies were throwable with no ill effects. The exception to this is Skate, who can toss them around all day+the manual Hand Waves it by saying it's because he possesses the "Chi of Fire". In the Bomber Games Fan Remake, Max can slam them with no difficulty, but then again, he is a huge wall of muscle. In 4, everyone can throw them much like in 2, although their throw animations are slower than normal (except for Cherry and Floyd) to show it still takes quite a bit of effort to do so. | |

Villains Out Shopping: Some enemies are just doing their thing (resting, playing arcade, partying in the disco etc.) before you drop in. One memorable example from the second game has you enter the back of a truck in the second level, only to find you've stumbled into an underground fighting ring; while you're fighting the current champ, the other enemies just watch and cheer on the battle. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: In the first game on cooperative two-player, vaulting over or being thrown by your partner initiates a spinning and flying kick attack. It takes timing and coordination to hit an enemy with it, but it is the most powerful attack in the game, dealing 75% of a bar of damage to bosses and can kill most lesser enemies in one hit. In the second game, Max cannot vault over his opponents, unlike the others. However, his grapples are the most powerful moves in the game. If enemies are grabbed from behind (which is extremely hard to accomplish due to the enemies' tendency to always face the player character), Max's suplex will deal an insane 75% of a bar worth of damage. Max can also jump while holding an enemy, allowing him to perform the Atomic Drop back-breaking move, which can deal that same high damage to other enemies as you fall on them. Later games allow you to input specific button combinations to throw 3-star attacks even without said stars. These attacks are vastly powerful, and accessing them requires either accumulating 120,000 points without dying, or using these combinations, which are rather hard to execute quickly. In SOR4, special moves. Special moves are toned down and more difficult to use. Certain moves, mainly charged moves, can override a special move in motion when used improperly. For example. if you used Axel's Dragon Smash (rapid fist ending with an uppercut) while an enemy is in armored status, the charged move can override the special move. Special moves also leave more frames of open vulnerability after the special move is executed compared to previous games. Even with these flaws, you can actually recover health by hitting enemies or objects, as long as you do not get hit during this duration. More experienced players would utilize this move more often to combo and/or clear out space and carefully attack enemies to refill the life gauge; this is something to master if you are going to play much harder difficulties like Mania. | |

Strangely inverted for the bad ending caused by timing out the Final Boss: In the Japanese version, even though the bombs were set off and caused catastrophic damage, the citizens at least are glad the conflict are over and forgive the heroes, and it is noted that in time, the damage can simply be repaired and the failure forgotten. In the overseas versions, the damage is on a smaller scale, but the citizens are extremely angry at the heroes for failing and it's noted that it will take a long time for the citizens' trust in the police to be restored. | |

Elite Mooks | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_9edbda07 | comment |
Elite Mooks: The further you progress, you start running into palette swaps of the basic mooks you've been busting up. They're stronger, more durable, and tend to show more cleverness in battle. In 4, this is taken a little further, with most mooks having three palatte swaps of progressively higher strengths. For example, with the Sugar bikers, Honey generally has more health than Sugar, Caramel gains a piledriver and gains flinch-resistance while charging her headbutt, and Candy has more health yet and longer periods of flinch-resistance. | |

Immune to Flinching | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_9f86dbcf | comment |
Immune to Flinching: Nora, the third boss of 4, is able to whip the Galsia enemies with her electric whip to make them immune to hit stun. Likewise, some enemies and nearly all bosses can become resistant to flinching at certain points, signified by their sprite flashing white. The boss of stage 9 is almost impossible to hit stun and you need to work around that fact to beat him. Seeing as it's Max, you shouldn't be surprised. | |

Canon Discontinuity | |

Canon Discontinuity: The entire storyline in 3 was retconned by none other than Streets of Rage 4, which clearly references Bare Knuckle 3's storyline instead. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
One-Hit Kill: Enemies who fall off the ledge will instantly die. Lucky for you, those same rules do not apply to you, losing a small fraction of health. In Survival mode, certain attacks like explosions will kill enemies. In earlier stages, this might do some damage to you, but... ...Once you get to much later levels like 50 and over, various attacks can deliver an instant kill to you. It is called survival for a reason. | |

Hitbox Dissonance | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_a5e998f0 | comment |
Hitbox Dissonance: Suffers a bit from this. The most frequent example would be attacks that miss initially, but hit a target who happens to wander in right before the end of the animation when the attack shouldn't have power anyway. | |

No-Sell: Holding Up and Jump (or just jump in 4) when you're tossed by an enemy enables you to land on your feet without taking any damage. Shiva can also do this if you try to toss him and the fat enemies (except the ones in the 2nd and 4th games) are simply too heavy to be thrown (except by Skate) and even when they're throwable again in 4, Adam, Axel and Blaze's throw animations are slower to show they really gotta put their backs into it. Estelle in 4 can also no sell your attempts to throw her by landing on their feet. | |

Final Boss | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_ad4a45be | comment |
Mr. X was usually the Final Boss who would send waves of mooks at you before and during his fight. In the fourth game, Mr. X is no longer around due to being killed by the heroes in the third game. Instead, you fight Mr. X's children who are fought separately and then together as a Dual Boss in the final stage without using any mooks for assistance (they do summon help in their solo fights when playing in multiplayer however). | |

Avenging the Villain: Surprisingly averted, as the Y Twins, children of Mr. X, are more interested in continuing their old man's criminal business rather than avenging his death by hunting down the heroes. Mr. Y's first act when he confronts the vigilantes after stage 2 is to bribe them with money in his hopes of leaving their operations alone... it didn't work. | |

Whip of Dominance: Every game has a Dominatrix villainess that fights with a whip. 1 and 4 have Nora while 2 and 3 have Electra, and they each have many Palette Swaps. Nora has a more military-inspired design thanks to her Commissar Cap while Electra has a more stereotypical dominatrix outfit and wields a Lightning Lash. 4 actually gives Nora whip a mechanic overhaul to make her more of a Flunky Boss & Mook Lieutenant, as she can actually buff and heal other Mooks by hitting on them with her whip. | |

My Rules Are Not Your Rules: Bosses aren't damaged by their own weapons. Diva, Beyo, and Riha take no damage from electricity, poison, and fire. Same for Estel, who is unhurt by the shell firing she summoned. When the player characters are under AI control in survival mode, they can use their special and star moves as often as they want without health loss or other limitations. Estel, Max, and Shiva, who were made playable in the DLC, will still use their patterns seen in story mode. Any weapons used by the players will eventually break down after repeated hits. Of course, mooks don't have this limitation when they use the same weapons. | |

Obvious Rule Patch: In Stage 12, the last setpiece featuring regular enemies is a battle against all of the different variations of the Big Ben foe. In early versions of the game, there was a spiked wrecking ball at the centre of the screen, making it very easy for players to cheese the encounter by hitting the ball a couple of times to get it moving and then spending the rest of the fight avoiding the Big Bens, who would kill themselves by running, jumping, or rolling into the ball in their zeal to attack the players. Later versions of the game removed the wrecking ball, forcing players to engage the Big Bens directly. | |

Timed Mission: While the clocks in the first two games tick rather slowly, you will lose a life if the clock runs out. The third game gets rid of the clock altogether, except for Stage 6 when attempting to save the Chief of Police (General Petrov in Bare Knuckle 3); if the timer runs out, gas floods the building, and, should the chief/general die, you later fight an alternate Final Boss and receive the game's Bad Ending. The Final Boss battle in Streets of Rage 3 is against the super-powered Robot-Y (or Neo X in Bare Knuckle 3). You have to defeat it within three minutes to get the good ending. | |

Improbable Aiming Skills: Your backup in the original game is skilled enough to: Fire at your position without harming you in the slightest. Hit every on screen enemy surrounding you, regardless of how close or far away they are to/from you. Do all of the above even if you are hundreds of feet in the air above the police car's position, or underneath a roof on a moving ferry ship. | |

Goddamned Bats | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_be134052 | comment |
invokedMania in the 2nd game. Normal mooks will keep their distance, hit you as soon as they can, and will always try to flank you (probably successfully), fast enemies will become even faster, and Goddamned Bats will become Demonic Spiders. The number of enemies will increase ridiculously, as will their health, and trying to hit any enemy who happens to have anti-air attacks with a jump attack will get you grounded in no time. Bosses like Abadede and R. Bear will make you cry in anger... if you play as Axel, that is. | |

Later in 3, Dr. Zan adds himself to the list.

Continuing is Painful | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_c3d60914 | comment |
Continuing is Painful: Unlike the last three games, there's no continue system in this game. You're given your set of lives and have to make your way through the stages with them. You can gain more via scoring (beating up mooks, picking up money and food, etc). But once you run out of lives in a level, that's it. If you're playing multi-player, you can be brought back, provided your partner(s) managed to beat the level with a reset life counter. But if all go down, that's game and you have to restart from the beginning of the level. | |

We Can Rule Together: Mr. X offers to let you join him instead of fighting him. He's lying, and if you take the offer, you just get booted back a few stages... unless you're playing 2-player and your buddy disagrees, in which case the two of you fight to the death. Win, and Mr. X asks again, with the same result if you accept... but if you reject now, it's taken as meaning that you'd rather steal his spot, leading to the usual final boss battle and an evil ending you can't get any other way. | |

Scoring Points | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_c64bdacd | comment |
Scoring Points: Cash bags and gold bars exist to grant bonus points, and a high enough score earns you an extra life. In Streets of Rage 3, earning 40,000 points on a single life grants you a star, which upgrades your blitz attack. The harder the difficulty, more points you get at the end of each round. This applies to all of the games. The 4th game makes this is essential as it's the only way to gain lives through the levels to keep you going. | |

Bottomless Pits: Appearing in the first game for levels 4 (holes in the bridge) and 7 (getting thrown off a moving freight elevator). Falling into one would cost you a life. Oddly, the bottomless pits never appeared in game 2, but return in game 3 for the construction levels where falling into one had your character jump back up at the expense of losing at least 1/4 of your health bar.

A.I. Breaker | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_d0ea147f | comment |
A.I. Breaker: Mr. Y crumbles like a cookie if you go up against him as Adam. His pattern is designed to zone you out by firing wildly while you struggle to close the gap then resetting and fighting you from the other side of the stage. However as Adam, you have a very nimble dash that can be repeated consecutively, meaning you can just dash up to him before he can even start shooting, putting you well inside his effective range and allowing you to take him down with ease. | |

The one in the first game is named Nora, and the one in the second and third game is named Electra. | |

Character Roster Global Warming | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_d1fdf7cb | comment |
Character Roster Global Warming: The first game had Adam, who had the lowest speed and highest attack. The second game replaced Adam with Max, who was slower and stronger then Adam, Max was then promptly replaced in the third game with Zan who was a Long-Range Fighter instead of a glacier, and 4 had Floyd, a combination of both Zan's considerable reach and Max's titanic strength, appropriate since Floyd is friends with Zan and was largely based off Max. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Shiva, Dr. Zan and Roo can't use weapons like the rest of the cast (Zan converts them to glowing energy balls, Shiva kicks them into enemies but refuses to actually hold them, and Roo can't interact with them at all), so any perk that grants a golden weapon or increased weapon durability gives them another random perk instead. Since the SoR1 characters don't have blitz or special moves, the perks that give those attacks elemental properties will instead apply those properties to their back or jump attacks. Perks that manipulate how special attacks interact with the player's lifebar instead give random other upgrades (much like weapon upgrades for weapon non-users). | |

If you do it slowly enough, so that the main character doesn't launch into a full combo, but so the enemies don't recover from the stun, you can send entire groups keeling backwards. | |

| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_df11acbe | comment |
Artificial Brilliance: It's rather understated, but for a Beat 'em Up, these enemies can seriously be tricky if you go over Normal (or play Streets of Rage 3 in general). They will occasionally abuse the hell out of their invulnerability frames and know how to circle around and attack you when you've left yourself open, refusing to come back onto the screen straight into your fists if they can help it. Bosses have wake-up attacks to ensure the player doesn't cheese them, and will often opt to counter a combo right as you think you have free reign to let loose. And in 4 particularly, they will exploit zoning and instant death pits in the environment if they get the opportunity. | |

Dub Name Change: The enemies in the original Streets of Rage are not named in-game. The Japanese manual has all the mooks and bosses identified, but since the English manual has no such enemy list, the Syndicate goons were essentially left nameless outside Japan. 2 added life gauges for the enemies and the names were kept the same in all versions. However, 3 changed the name of nearly every single enemy and item between regions (i.e. Galsia became Garcia). | |

Helpful Mook: Of the accidental kind. Enemies that can throw you may accidentally toss you into other enemies, damaging them in the process. Likewise, the enemies that hold you in place would have been better off just throwing you instead of letting you kick your legs in the air to hit enemies in front of you. In 4, the police and Syndicate mooks are as opposed to each other as they are you, and will fight amongst themselves if you don't present yourself as a target. | |

Classic Cheat Code | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_e41b38d3 | comment |
Classic Cheat Code: In addition to the unlockable characters, every normally available playable character except Blaze has an overpowered "super" version that's unlocked with either a code or via Violation of Common Sense: for Axel, you need to spin the control pad repeatedly after selecting him until the first level intro cutscene ends, for Zan, you need to hold down C on both controllers and for Skate, you just need to stand there without pressing any buttons until you lose a life. This replaces Zan's and Skate's basic combo with a massively damaging Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs attack while Axel's default special attack becomes a massively powerful Spin Attack that knocks down all the enemies on the screen after it finishes. Axel also has 2 additional super modes in the Japanese version of the game which are accessed by losing all his lives and inputting a specific name in the high score table, with one of them giving him an unique combo chain similar to the other super characters and another one of them replacing his double kick attack with a rapid kick combo. | |

Extreme Mêlée Revenge | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_e41cf31d | comment |
Extreme Mêlée Revenge: Most of the time in the series it's implied the heroes are mostly non-fatal in their brawling, which is why they manage to even get some of their info in the first place. But Mr. X is so heinous yet dangerous that the characters have to put every last ounce of effort they've got into beating him down, twice. And it's implied the cast were particularly vengeful given Adam's kidnapping in 2. Canonically this actually kills him from the sheer injuries sustained in the second beat down, resulting in being nothing more than a Brain in a Jar by the time the third game rolls around. | |

| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: The first two games have a colorful, if generic design for the levels and the characters. The third game uses a more muted color palette and everything is drawn (for its time) realistically. The fourth game takes a drastic art shift by making everything look like a comic book. | |

Expy: The final boss uses a projectile weapon like Machine Gun Willy and Belger, Abadede is The Ultimate Warrior, and Zamza is a clone of Blanka (he even has the same spinning attack). Not to forget that Axel is an expy of Cody, or that the Muay Thai-using enemies in SOR2 (the ones with bird names) look exactly like Joe Higashi. The biker enemies in SoR2 look suspiciously like Jagi from Fist of the North Star (a.k.a. Hokuto no Ken). Mona and Lisa resemble Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell. Design wise, Floyd was intended as this towards Max, as concept art shows him going through designs tages where he does indeed resemble Max, and one image even shows his sprite side by side with Max's own sprite. Additionally, Floyd's metal prosthetic arms and having a "Gotcha!" grab marks him as an expy of Jax. | |

Advancing Wall of Doom: In the third game's third stage, one segment has you running away from a bulldozer driven by a Donovan, trying to balance breaking through concrete walls and knocking the 'dozer back. At the end of the stage, you walk past a steel beam and the Donovan drives into it, causing a steel barrel to fall from the ceiling and knock him out. | |

Dirty Cop | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_eb251937 | comment |
Dirty Cop: The first game's premise is that the local police as a whole has gone corrupt thanks to Mr. X's syndicate taking over, leading to the heroes resigning in order to take matters into their own hands, with the one cop who's still good offering occasional assistance from his police car with a bazooka. It gets even worse in the fourth game after the Y Twins' takeover, with the police going as far as capturing the heroes, forcing them to beat up everyone in the precinct and break out of it. Though the extent of the corruption is somewhat vague in 4. If you're not the active target, the police will instead beat up the thugs and vice versa (with the exception of the riot squad enemies, who always focus on you). Additionally Estel doesn't appear to be on the take but misinformed about the heroes' motivations and tries to stop them in the name of the law. She manages to come around after the Y Twins blow up a train and she realizes that she and the protagonists are working towards the same end. The Commissioner's allegiance is unclear (in the police station he openly opposes the heroes but on the skytrain he's assisting Estel who, as mentioned, isn't working for the twins; alternatively he could simply be trying to lay down the law himself after you tear through his department's staff). Unless you take the pile of money under Commissioner's office desk as a dead giveaway. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Aside from delivering two Big Damn Heroes in 3, in the Good Ending path, it is implied that Adam went through the bad end route while you deal with the main threat, and single-handedly took down the syndicate covering the City Hall/White House and the 'phony General/Police Chief' (which, by the way, is Shiva). This is shown in the Japanese version where he explicitly talks about the fake general/chief already being apprehended. | |

Jet Pack | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_eb9eaecd | comment |
Jet: 2, 3: First appeared on the second stage of the bridge in SOR2, where he had low health. He returned in SOR3, but the last battle took a heavy toll on him; he was bald, lethargic, and needed an oxygen mask, possibly being revived as a cyborg. He was much more difficult, however, as he had more attacks and mooks with jetpacks themselves. | |

Slouch of Villainy: Mr. X likes to do this. Especially in the second game, he slouches in his chair while you fight a wave of mooks and then Shiva. In the first game, should you achieve the ending where your character replaces Mr. X, both Axel and Blaze will do this. Unsurprisingly, his children also do this during the climactic boss fight in stage 9 of the fourth game, although in this case it's right in the middle of a crowd. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: Lots of the enemies have themed names. The masked biker punks from SOR2 are all named for weather conditions (Fog, Mist, Storm, Calm, etc.) The Signal Gang Members in SOR2 are named after the colour of their jacket (Y. Signal for yellow jacket, B. Signal for blue jacket, etc). In SOR3 they are named after other things (Ice, Scarab). The guys with jetpacks have aircraft names (Jet, Comet, etc.) The Fat Bastards in SOR2 have names reflecting their girth: Big Ben, Big Go, Buffet, etc. The ninja mooks are named after Japanese action stars: (Sonny) Chiba, (Toshiro) Mifune, and (Sho) Kosugi to name a few. The kickboxers are named after birds (Ibis, Phoenix, Eagle). Some of the Shaolin monks are named after mythical Asian creatures (Suzaku, Seiryu, Byatcko), while others are named after Buddhist terms (Ashura, Rakan, Kongoh). There are even monks named after the birds represented by the Nanto Seiken branches from Fist of the North Star (Ko-Shu, Suicho, Ko-Kaku, Hakuro and Ho-Oh). The robots, in SOR2, after chemistry-related terms (molecule, particle, isotope, uranium, hydrogen, etc). In BK3, The Men in Black are named either after various types of metal or as McNames. Several Mooks in SOR2 seem to be named after manga/anime Characters. For example: Veherit, Caska, Griphis, Souther, and Heart. The punk girls in BK3 and SOR4 are named after gemstones (e.g. Garnet, Diamond and a misspelt Rubby). The shirtless martial artists in SOR3 are named mostly after animals connected to martial arts styles, e.g. Tiger, Snake, Dragon. The fat masked biker ladies in SOR4 are named after types of sweets (e.g. Sugar, Caramel). The two palette swaps of Diva encountered in SOR4 are called Beyo and Riha. Mr X. Nightmare has a new Diva called Weetnee. | |

Cutscene Power to the Max | |
| Streets of Rage (Video Game) / int_fe262584 | comment |
Cutscene Power to the Max: In a lot of the cutscenes, your characters are falling from great height without suffering any damage. In-game, if you fall in the Bottomless Pits, you lose a portion of your health. | |
