I have had this game for a long time.
From what I remember it was aweful.

If your one of those "save points are for sissies" kinda guys you'll like it.

Essentially you will play a level, beat everyone down, kinda figure out the sequence the guys come at you
making them easier to take down. Problem is until you do this, everytime you run outta lives, your back at level 1.

Expect to see LOTS of level 1 for a while =P

As for gameplay, its terrible, just terrible, even then I wasn't impressed, try for yourself if your not a believer.
I wouldn't pay $1 for this. Think of it as a very very very downgraded version of the original Final Fight, inferior in every way.

Whoa!I'm not sure what they were thinking when they made this game.Very strange is an understatement!You play as a 40ish looking guy with blonde hair,yellow outfit and shades who wants to clean up the mean city streets.Oddly enough,the mean streets aren't overun with gun toteing hoodlums or knife weilding punks,
but instead circus midgets and gorillas that throw bananas at you!Deadly,deadly bananas....

As for the "hero" of this game,check out his close up during the title screen.He looks Boomhauer from King of the Hill!I am not exaggerating!Check it out!Trippiest thing ever.

While it is weird,and well pretty dumb,the gameplay itself isn't horrible.Actually for a quick 8-bit beat 'em up scroller it's kinda fun.The humor is pretty good at parts too.Seeing him slam the bull dogs on the ground and saying "good boy",or the popular sayings at the start of each level."Never trouble trouble unless trouble troubles you" or "The race is not always to the swiftest nor the fight to the strongest--- but that's the way to bet."

What makes this game more playable than alot of other borderline bad games was it's music.Kind of a fast bluesy feel to it.Makes punchin' out those darn midgets who have the miraculous ability to fly by swinging a ball and chain much easier.

I believe Tech TV gave this the ranking of 10th worst video game ever made.I don't think it's that bad;I would give that title to nes games like Hydlide,Deadly Towers or Spelunker.

This is worth paying about 4 or five dollars for.
