Same. Especially on Hard, doing it in one sitting would be ridiculous. Maybe not God Hand ridiculous, but still pretty tough.

Bro this game goes hard but it's kicking my ****ing ass. Old school beat em ups generally followed the plan of death by a thousand cuts until you get to the bosses but this new form of beat em up with saves at each level makes up for it by making each level substantially harder. I'm about it cause it makes each level distinct in its challenges but I'm getting my ass handed to me at stage four on the docks with all the jump kick ****s. I finally made it to the boss and just couldn't hack it. And I'm playing on ****ing Normal. ****'s real, son.

Have you tried the online co-op? It's ****ing awesome. I joined some rando who was trying Arcade mode on Hardest difficulty, and we actually made it kinda sorta pretty far before we got curb stomped.

Oh, and I don't know if you've already heard about this, but have you noticed those destructible arcade cabinets that randomly pop up? If you hit them with those stunguns the cops drop, you can teleport to some secret boss battles.

Oh snap. And are you playing on PS4? If so what's your gamertag?

Nah, I got it on the Switch.

**** you

I also have Streets of Rage...but on Xbox thanks to Gamepass

We’re all so fragmented :’(

:laughing:

More like Gaypass.

I can't even tell you how many excellent games I've played on it that I wouldn't have played otherwise. It's an amazing service.
