[@redcrimson1028]

Well, I always thought the old game s were better than 4. In the 4th game, the levels were too short, uninspired level design, music was far from terrible but didn't exc3ed the original soundtrack, bosses were cheap, few enemy variants, other than that, 4 is still a great game

SORR is one my favourite beat em up games. And speaking of customization, there are some modders who created custom bgm, sound effects, and even replacing a characters / enemies with new sprite to make it like a new ones (Like Vegeta from Dragon Ball, Chun Li from Street Fighter, and even Sonic the Hedgehog) Also, speaking of SORMAKER, well, those classic games at 0:43, did you know if there are some SOR Remake MOD inspired by them? I'm playing The King of Dragons, Knights of the Round, Alien VS Predator, Cadillac and Dinosaurs, The Punisher, Warriors of Fate, and Captain Commando, all of those on SORR All of those MOD was created by person named "Cm_Blast". I'm big fan of him, to be honest.

[@FR4M3Sharma]

If it weren't for the efforts and fame of the SORRemake project we wouldn't have gotten a official next installment. The devs behind SOR4 even took some ideas and liberties from the remake.

I agree with your statement of the SOR being an amazing beat em up, and the best unoffical SOR game.

[@Greenworldjamal]

Both of them are great . SORR is amazing with the love put in to the games , the sprites, the characters, the tributes to the music, the 90's feel. Honestly, it's truly amazing on it's own right. It has amazing lore, much of a better story and it's just fun . Even I love how you can make decisions based on what you do. You also have multiple endings. Gameplay is solid. Fun. SOR4 by gameplay is better, even if they don't have the run and roll system for every character but Streets of Rage 3 characters with the run / roll system, with combos, star system flourish in that game making SOR4 one of the deepest Best em ups of all time because of what you can do with so many characters. The DLC of unlocking more moves along with training mode, survival mode , makes SOR4 an actual classic . I honestly prefer SO4 barely over R because I love having fun with their gameplay. Musically wise, it's actually good too and I feel like people don't respect the game enough because it's not nostalgic enough with Yuzo's name written all over it

SORR is my personal favorite of the series, I've played it easily 2x more than the rest of the franchise combined. That said, the SOR4 team deserves respect. They've updated the game to be truly worthy of its title, they clearly love the franchise and wanted to do it justice. I wasn't a huge fan upon release, mainly because it felt bogged down and slow compared to SORR, but they've since won me over. I'm still more likely to fire up SORR for my next SOR fix, though. :)

[@Iceferno]

When I was following SOR4 before release, I honestly thought they'd try to outdo Remake in every way. But all they really ended up doing was taking the Train Roof level, and maybe a few cosmetic features. With 12 stages, there really should have been a path split, especially as the villains are twins (there could have been a "Go after Mr Y/Ms Y" choice). What I really like about Remake is the use of >> Specials, but not every character has it. My main problem with SOR4 is the enemy cheapness and inconsistent hitboxes, which make it unplayable for me. Modding is also easier in Remake, whereas you need additional programs to do it in 4. In fact, I made my own soundtrack series because of Remake. Did you play Remake 5.2 btw?

SOR Remake is the best of all series. You forgot to mention the up and down roll. Plus man the music was real on real instruments not midi. I loved it and I was thinking Sega would buy it from Bomber Games instead of shutting it down.

[@MarvinPowell1]

You perfectly described why this is my favorite Streets of Rage game (SoRR).

[@Kos4Evr]

My 2 cents. In streets of rage 2 & 3 Axel's standing special hits enemies in the fore ground and the back ground. Sor4 Axel does not. His forward special is also lacking I frames making it very risky to use with too many enemies on screen. The running is a huge omission, but the rolling and jumping into the fore ground and back ground, introduced in sor3 is also missing. This feature made it easier to avoid certain attacks and improved the sense of being in a world, not stuck on 1 of several 2d planes. The star symbol was retained from 3 but its purpose was changed. It originally served to show that your character was growing and improving, even if it was limited to your dash attack. Now it serves to remind you that you have super attacks available, akin to the calls for back up in sor1. Even a basic level of rpg-like growth would keep the gameplay from feeling stale. Sor3 had free specials on a timer while sor4 has a means to recover health after forcing you to sacrifice health using the combo system. Unless you are an absolute pro at the combo system then this hurts more often than it helps. Far too easy to get knocked out of your combo and lose more health than you recovered. This makes the game harder for newer characters. Enemy mobs have far more I frames than they did in previous games. At the same time the playable characters have fewer as I hinted to earlier with Axel. This greatly effects gameplay especially with the difficult to master combo system that sor4 is built around. While I am fine with adding more playable female characters, but was it neccesary to replace Skate? I don't think it was. While I have no problem with a samoan character being playable, his original design just makes more sense. I get that he is Max and Zan thrown into a blender but it just doesn't make sense in a sor game. If any character would have a samoan connection it would be Max, the pro wrestler, not the asian scientist. Honorable mention is that sor3 did have multiple endings. In 1 stage if you beat the timer and disarmed the bombs you got to keep going.

[@DancesRainyStreets]

No running or dodge rolls in most SoR games has never been an issue for me. Just take a step back and turn around or walk up or down before an attack. Works in every SoR game. The blitz/dash move is easy to abuse with two or three stars, endlessly going back and forth on the screen. It starts to look silly after a while. I agree on the energy meter for the specials. That, along with the ability to do more and special moves with weapons were the best upgrades part three gave.

[@Kos4Evr]

@@DancesRainyStreets i just posted things I felt had been left out from sor3. The biggest problem is that sor4 Axel largely feels inferior to sor3 Axel. Limiting his mobility and nerfing his specials really hurt his playability.

[@DancesRainyStreets]

@@Kos4Evr I understand. Giving a character too much of a change feels off in a world that aims to be familiar. I've seen this in sequels of other game series as well.

[@IgnacioCalvo87]

I also like SOR4, but like you I don't feel that it is a true sequel to SOR3, SOR4 seems more like SOR2.5 to me, a game that completely forgets elements that SOR3 introduced, such as the possibility that EVERYONE can run and roll or alternative paths with their respective endings, something that SOR Remake expanded, including a store to buy content, thanks to things like this the game becomes more replayable, for that reason I only got to play SOR4 a couple of times, while SOR Remake I don't even remember how many times I replayed it

They are totally different games in some aspect. SORR is a sexy homage to the originals. SOR4 is a sequel. SORR is the winner in my book.

[@FireBomberBassist]

Yeah SORR spoiled us.

[@anthonybermudez2170]

They should have added all this in streets of rage 4. Especially bring back the streets of rage 3 meter. The “ok” meter at the top for your special moves how u dont waste health for your special move. At least for the streets of rage 2 and 3 characters. Also the thing I love the most about sor remake is it feels like you’re playing the original streets of rage games. I love the pixelated stages and characters more than the sor 4 design. They should have at least have u the option to make it the stages and enemies pixelated just like the original in sor 4. Also playing as Mr x would have been fun for sor4 the should have made the dlc of nightmare x as you playing as more of the bosses with extra moves and fighting all the good guys as bosses that would have been really sick. The main thing I like about sor3 is how they added most of the original stages and using all characters playable. I’ve always enjoyed using the sor 1 chars the most and playing with them in the sor 2 and 3 stages. But the best thing about this game in my opinion is that u can use extra special moves for the sor 1 characters depending on how many stars you have. All of sor 1 axles extra moves are soo sick! I wish they gave mr x way more moves tho. And his special would be him shooting his gun but walking around with him and shooting his guy is soo fun!

A superficial comparison wont serve SoR remake justice. At least we have to appreciate the efforts of Bomber games and how they made the title a platform of infinite re playability. Another thing is that pixel art represents serious efforts from a technical perspective. We play games because of the efforts put behind them and SoR remake is the pinnacle of that.

I absolutely hate how infuriating some of the enemies in 4 are. The “flashing invisibility” time when they get up or at certain stages in the fight, can instill pure rage in me. Also your character seems soo slow, you can’t get out of the way much of the time, why. I mean, there’s bad crap coming your way, and there’s not a dash or run button. Fat guy rolling or belly flopping toward you? well your getting hit because your character needs to cool guy strut out of the way. Oh your supposed to do a defense special move? well that takes health that you slowly regain if you deal 50 times the damage then the move was worth to begin with, oh but you’ll get hit, because your character is god awful slow to react, or the bad guy turns invisible and slaps you. They made the special moves useless. The only one you can use if the dash move. Which is kinda weird they call it a dash move, because it really only goes forward and you get hit a lot of times when doing it. There needs to be a dash button and the ability to dash in different directions, and it doesn’t need to be an attach move. It just seems like a cheap way to make the game hard, and it makes your character seem lethargic.

Because everyone has a violent orgasm over 2, calling it the best beat-em-up ever, acting like nothing about it is flawed and can't be topped, and ignore 1 and 3's existence. That being said, 4 isn't bad. You only temporarily lose health and get it back by attacking. Running and rolling aren't that necessary because you can still move/jump/use usual crowd control methods to not get hit/bait enemies closer to you. And there isn't a lack of i-frames. Throwing/vaulting/timing certain blitz and specials/and now even jumping have i-frames to take advantage of.

Because of that I was very disappointed with SOR4 when it first came out as I kept comparing it to SORR; A couple of years later I gave it another chance and love it now, but SORR is still the best by far.

[@Leandruzo]

I totally agree Streets of Rage Remake is way better than Streets of Rage 4. Actually, Streets of Rage Remake (bomberlink) is the best streets of rage ever made being funnier than any other up to now.

[@TheAnimatedGamer]

Really the only thing i wanted from 4 is the SOR3 OK special meter back. Outside of that Renake is more like a Sonic Mania type of gwne where it benifits from all the content from older titles jampacked into one game. I do agree SOR4 couldve been better in some areas but it is important to understand the nuances here

I agree 100% The remake is much better I like 4 but its just that cartoon look its got

[@luhhtee2547]

I still don’t get how people will choose blurry pixels over clean animated art.

[@michaelpointer9416]

​@luhhtee2547 It's because blurry pixels were the games original graphics.Animation is a better style of graphics generally but when it comes to a 90s beat em up game like that.Alot OG fans like to remember the game as it once was

[@luhhtee2547]

@@michaelpointer9416 they were the original graphics because that’s what the technology limited them to. That’s why graphics developed into the clean sleek art it is today. Pixel art isn’t “generally” better, you just prefer it due to nostalgia only.

[@michaelpointer9416]

Yes, that's right for me personally it is a nostalgia move

[@DancesRainyStreets]

Yeah, and looks flat compared to the older games on crt, but the lighting effects and animations are well done though.

SOR Remake is a labor of love. Bomber games did an entire fan game on an IP that was forgotten for ages. And did mostly from their pockets and the game was free SOR4 on the other hand, had investments and the product was sold. If you compare both, they are different approaches to SOR but the remake is a fan service game, probably it started to show SEGA that their old IP's still have a huge loyal fanbase, thats why we have news of a New Golden Axe, Shinobi and conversations about SOR 5

[@zinkzenefale3696]

Hello Profar, gw akan sampaikan dengan bahasa indo karena bahasa inggris gw ngga bagus... Overall gw setuju dengan opini km tentang bagaimana pandangan tentang SOR remake, karena gw sejak kecil tumbuh bareng side scrolling beat em up apalagi seri double dragon hingga street of rage. SORR menurut gw feelnya lebih dapet dengan beberapa pertimbangan seperti fitur gameplay, kustomisasi, replayability stage yang berbeda-beda, pilihan mobs yang variatif dari semua seri SOR (kita bisa mukulin 3 variant garcia yang berbeda-beda) bahkan menu item shop dan editor buat nambah fun pengalaman saat bermain. Beberapa fitur seperti branching path dengan pilihan 4 starting point stage dan CPU teammate merupakan sebuah terobosan beat em up yang baru, karena sepengetahuan gw blm ada beat em up dengan mengimplementasikan kedua fitur tersebut. Pilihan Stage yang dibawakan SORR juga lebih terasa dinamis, seperti stage naik motor dan jetski (mirip surfingnya di game TMNT dan Capt Commando), trus ada sedikit sentuhan platformer dan obstacle seperti di stage diatas kereta berjalan, di terowongan kereta bawah tanah dan beragam stage area yang lekat dengan environment era 90'an. Entah kenapa representasi stage di SORR baik itu dibuat ulang maupun yang sudah disempurnakan oleh Bomber Games selaku developer benar-benar sangat terasa aspek nostalgianya. Selebihnya gw mengakui redesign asset dari karakter, animasi & moveset, mekanisme game, stage area hingga soundtrack memang bukan kaleng-kaleng untuk sekelas game modding. OST ikonik fighting in the street, go straight, dreamer hingga violent breathing digarap secara epik oleh fans tanpa mengurangi esensi yang disematkan oleh yuzo koshiro (creatornya). SORR sejatinya bisa bersaing dengan game-game "legit" beat-em up yang dinaungi oleh developer besar. Sudah tentu SOR4 secara aspek grafis yang ditawarkan seperti visual effect, animasi dan actionnya jauh lebih fenomenal dan memanjakan mata daripada SORR, namun begitu Bomber Games mampu memberikan sebuah jawaban bahwa game klasik akan memiliki kelasnya sendiri di dunia modern (while classic look classy). Sekedar tambahan, ada satu lagi game mod beat-em up yang lagi gw pantengin karena potensinya bisa mendekati SORR walaupun pengerjaannya sendiri terbilang cukup lama. Namanya Ultimate Double Dragon, di desain ulang oleh small developer berbasis dari game Super Double Dragon (SNES). Fitur mekanik gameplay yang ditawarin cukup menarik, mengingat developernya adalah veteran game fighting, dia juga menambahkan referensi animasi moveset dari berbagai game fighting ternama seperti mortal kombat, killer instinct, samurai shodown, dan sebagainya. Mereka juga mendesain secara detil untuk playable karakter, mobs dan boss (tambahan karakter mob yang ditampilkan sempat dibuat langsung oleh creatornya Kishimoto-san dengan cara dibeli oleh pihak developer UDD). Selain itu beberapa stage areanya juga di desain ulang dan memiliki branching path walau pilihannya nggak sebanyak SORR.

Profar: Streets of rage remake has a bigger character roster than sor 4 Sor 4 DLC : Proceeds to shred profar´s argument by adding 3 more characters and a option to customize character abilities (I love the sor fan-made remake but still I think that I prefer the sor 4 especially because of his hand-drawn style) Don´t hate me profar :(

[@Profar26]

Why would I hate you? :) Well you know, this video was created before the SOR4 DLC came out? It's good to see that SOR4 applies customized abilities for playable characters. Still, I think SOR Remake has a lot more to offer in terms content. That's just me.

[@darwey47]

@@Profar26 okay so no problem :)

[@Profar26]

@@darwey47 You also missed my point. My point was not to say that SOR Remake had a bigger roster than SOR4. My point was that SOR Remake redesigned the characters from SOR1 and SOR2, to make them consistent with SOR3. Whereas SOR4, had all of the characters from SOR1 to 3, but didn't redesign them to make them consistent with SOR4.

[@rayshawnhoward5068]

I prefer SORR over SOR4 just because more love was put into it like how the hell they going to leave Eddie Hunter out of SOR4 I mean he's in the game but not really only his retro self that's kind of a slap to the franchise he's been in every SOR game except for the first one like he really doesn't exist in SOR4 that's probably one of the reasons why I pick him a lot in the game to make him feel important but I am definitely grateful and happy that SOR4 was a success cuz I hope for a SOR5 in the future but anyway SORR wins just because of several reasons

[@danchavyn]

Streets of Rage Remake is the best game I've played in my entire life. It should serve as an example for everyone who wants to develop a good game. The best feature, in my opinion, is the SoR Maker, which enhances the gaming experience and extends the playing time.

[@DestinyOfZero]

I Actually prefer not having everybody have sprint, makes each character feel more unique and changes your playstyle, everybody having sprint made them have less replayability to me thx to all the movement being similar. I also never liked the guns, milled the point of characters. Also SoR4 has 21 characters now. Branching Story is amazing tho. I much prefer just keeping the old characters the way they were (since thats the point) changing them to fit the game makes them not the old characters. Also fancy screen wipes are so much more boring than unique star attacks. yeah the only customization in 4 is just 3 alt colors and 5 new moves to swap between. u never actually compared SoR4 features to Remake and simply kept saying they did more. as for the revival well yeah SoR4 is gonna get all the credit because it did do that, SoR4 is much more accessible than Remake and has a more modern artsyle along with retro inspired new music. Most of the things u say Remake does “better” arent really better just different.
