'Streets of Rage 2' was originally released on the Sega Megadrive in 1991. This follow-up from the original was much improved and very popular among gamers of the time. It has been ported onto several consoles since then and is part of the Sega Megadrive Collection of games. When I saw my cousin play the game on her Megadrive I was intrigued and later downloaded the game through the Wii's Virtual Console to enjoy. The story is a basic one. The three cops from the first Streets of Rage- Axel, Blaze and Adam- defeated evil guy Mr. X and brought an end to the crime and corrupting in their city and have since returned to new jobs. However Mr X wasn't really dead; ...  Read the complete review

Just like movies, when a good video game comes out you can be sure that a sequel will follow. It's therefore no surprise that a second Streets of Rage game hit the store shelves two years after the original took the world by storm. If you've read my review of the first game you'll know that it is one of my favourite side scrolling beat em ups of all time.

Streets Of Rage 2, a sequel to the very good original Streets Of Rage game on the Mega Drive. This game brings everything you get from the first one, the mean street brawling, the boss fights at the end of each stage, the great looking graphics, and Axel and Blade, the characters that made this game great. There are a couple of things in this game that dissapoints, one of which is the removal of the character Adam which is'nt such a big sadness to see him gone, and the special button function to bring out the police cars that fire missiles to annihilate opposing thugs has also been removed, but these are made up for by introducing a new Character, a ...  Read the complete review

Streets of Rage on the Megadrive was simply immense. Superlatives simply cannot do it justice, it is as simple as that. If you were an original owner or player, then you must surely understand I am not exaggerating. So, the inevitable announcement of a sequel brought squeals of joy from Megadrive owners all over the world. The graphics looked brighter, the sprites bigger, new characters, new enemies, new weapons! For any young boy, this was a dream come true. My memory is failing me these days, and according to Wikipedia, part 2 was released in 1992. I was given this as a gift for what must have then been my eleventh birthday. I was the first ...  Read the complete review
