Personal review

Un beat'em up entretenido, de controles sencillos pero realmente complicado por lo escurridizo de los enemigos.
Merece la pena usar el especial para ver a un policía con un lanzamisiles.

A top secret crime organization has taken over what used to be a happy, peaceful metropolis and now no one is safe. Rampant crime and violence are commonplace after the syndicate bought off government officials and the majority of the police force with lucrative bribes. Frustrated by the corruption on their force, a group of young officers quits with a plan to take back the city in their own way. With special hand-to-hand combat abilities, Adam Hunter, Axel Stone and Blaze Fielding step onto the Streets of Rage to risk it all to save their city, even if it means putting their lives on the line.
