This is the best home console beat 'em up of the 16 bit era. Other games might have better visual/audio aesthetics or more interesting settings/characters, but all of that is irrelevant to what truly rules the day, gameplay.

What the fuck? You can move in all 8 directions in all of those games, did you play ANY of them?

In other words you flailed around without learning the game, got spanked into a game over, kept credit feeding like a scrub and ragequit blaming the game instead of your own lack of skill.

>>5365887
I got to the final level of Final Fight on my first playthrough, I didn't even get a game over I just gave up cause I felt fatigued.

You can only move in one direction at a time, no diagonal movement, which is annoying and stiff. The special moves are not well thought out, the enemies are incredibly stock/generic and take far too long to kill with how boring they are to fight. The game looks good, but that's all it has going for it over SoR

>> No.5365927

>>5365906
You never played Final Fight, everything you said is wrong. I mean I get how you could have a retarded opinion on the enemies and the special move (which is amazing btw and has to be used constantly if you wanna git gud) but thinking it has no diagonal movement is absolutely pants on head retarded since even the garbage SNES port has it. What the fuck are you talking about? You want poorly thought out special moves? Check out Axel's grand upper which can be liberally spammed to cheese out fucking everything, or how about the piss easy stunlocking? Shifting at least requires technique to perform in comparison. It's also a slow as fuck game which feels even slower than it is by how small the sprites are, Final Fight may be slower movement wise but the sprites are bigger so it's always intense and close up.

>> No.5365949

I should specify that I played Final Fight 3 only, there is definitely only four directions you can move in, no diagonal walking.

Just checked to be sure, it has no diagonal movement. When you press diagonal, the character doesn't move, you can only move straight up down left and right

there is 16bits beat em up that can top turtles in time or final fight and the best 16bits machine for beat em up is the snes, the games have better color pallet with a lot more simultaneous colors and the games just run right, while on genesis they are way too laggy.

It's a really fucking good game but I still think Final Fight 3 was better. SoR 2 has one big dick difficulty spike while the progression on FF3 is smoother and even allows you to go for harder shit if you are a returning player.
I feel SoR2 is a masterpiece that fans of the genre need to get over, if that makes sense. It's existence does not make it the ur-beat'em'up.

People move on from games when their levels of enjoyment drop off. You have to be a lifeless autistic faggot to keep playing something after you've stopped enjoying it just to say you beat it.

News flash kiddo-- nobody gives a fuck how many games you beat or how much time you spent on them.

Why? Because you're wasting your fucking life on this shit. Go out and contribute to society. Stop being a fucking leech.

Anyone else here end up liking the first game better?

I personally prefer the more minimalistic sprite designs, the (more consistent) sprite proportions, the characters, and the soundtrack of SoR.

Sure, the movesets are a bit more limited, but I find myself having fun trying to do more with less, and less moves != easier to learn.
