Summary: Good, but too short...
Comment: Final Fight: Streetwise is not worthy of the panning it got from the critics. On the other hand, it is both to short and has a somewhat schizophrenic design team. Still, it's a pretty worthy investment.

Summary: Needed More Time in Development
Comment: Final Fight goes inner city with Final Fight X - Streetwise. The soundtrack is full of rough music, the scenes are concrete jungles with dirt and blood covered combatants.
There's a ton of swearing in this game, as well as hookers, drug dealers and just about every other miscreant type you can imagine. I enjoy the Grand Theft Auto series, so I'm not a goody-goody ... but it was a bit over the top here.
The graphics were very jumpy, with clipping problems and monotone objects. There were some nice interactivities, being able to pick up garbage cans for example. Still, the world felt very forced.
The sound is OK, although if this is going to be a story-driven game, they should have gone for better voice actors. Also, very strangely, the subtitles are usually off from what is being said. The soundtrack sounded like a cheezy version of a gangster / mobster movie.
I think in general that was the problem with most of the game. You could see where they were coming from, and it might have been a ton of fun, but it's just not quite there. Maybe they needed more time in development. The sound is OK but not great. The graphics are OK but not great. The storyline ... ditto.
I'd rent this one first, to see if you get drawn in, before you buy it.

Summary: Really had problems with story, graphics, etc...
Comment: This game advertises all this stuff about how great it is, but it honestly isn't. I bought it to play with my boyfriend, and even he didn't like it. He is like Mikey, he likes anything.
The graphics are choppy, the story is okay until it deviates into this weird part about people with glowing eyes, and the music isn't all that great.
This is just my opinion, and I suggest you rent this game before you buy it.

Summary: Is Final Fight back? Nostalgia lends a hand...
Comment: I'm an old school 2d gamer at heart... no matter how much 3D you throw at me I still love classic games 2d gaming. The original Final Fight was one of my ALL TIME favorite arcade games and console games when it got ported over to the SNES and Sega CD. Plain simple fun.
Capcom has finally made a new Final Fight for us many years after we saw the last batch of games. (FF1-FF3 on SNES, Final Fight Revenge on Saturn). This version is completly 3d and features Kyle Travers (who would be Cody's brother) trying to find out what happened to his bro after Cody goes missing at the start of the game.
The gameplay involves you walking around different parts of Metro City talking to random NPC's who usually don't have anything of interest and beating thugs up along the way. You can also complete some small "side quests" along the way to finding Cody. The fighting itself is ok, nothing spectacular or new we haven't seen before. Music mostly consists of hiphop tracks and some run of mill sound effects. The voices and mini story clips which focus in on Kyle talking are one of my favorite parts of the game, most are humorus and were done well. The graphics definetly leave alot to be desired as they look pretty low scale most of the time being that the game doesnt even support 480p.
The game will have you run into people of Final Fight lore along the way which makes for some of the better parts of the game. Most of the thugs and goons you fight in this game don't compare to the classic thugs of the original, but hey they're just there to get beatup.
All in all, the game needed more polish before it got out the door, and I woudlnt recommend it to anyone who isn't a fan of Final Fight. The cameos and flashbacks to old school Metro City are what ties it in for me, just getting to bust some heads in Metro City again just like back in 1990.
As info, the only way to save the game is to select to "Quit" from the pause menu... it will then prompt you to save before exit. (Another little thing which Capcom should have dont differently..)

Final Fight X: Streetwise continues the storyline of Capcom's classic arcade brawler. You'll become Kyle Travers -- renowned pit fighter and brother of Cody Travers, one of the original Final Fight characters. When Cody is kidnapped, Kyle hits the streets to find his brother. But Metro City has changed; a new designer drug is out, and street violence is exploding as dealers and junkies fight for a piece if the new market. Gang members, businessmen, homeless drunks, hookers - any of them might have the information you need to find Cody. As you play, you'll explore a fully-realized Metro City, picking up side missions and building your rep, as you track down the kidnappers. You'll also into some familiar faces from previous Final Fight games. As you fight you'll activate special modes that make you deadlier, like the Instinct Mode that increases attack speed and accuracy, or the CounterTime that slows your enemies down
