Title
This game is packed full of stuff: melee weapons, guns, crazy levels, crazy bosses, and even some special moves. Unfortunately, the execution leaves something to be desired. It looks like a turd left in the sun for a week and doesn't play much better. The player space is so stupidly huge and the jump feels broken, you go flying ridiculously far. It's kind of fun -- more fun than Final Fight -- but it's all so busted. I hear the arcade original is pretty awesome though.

    Bought the CPS 1.5 board for this from my arcade buddy, but the more I play it the more I think this might not just be Capcom's best but top 3 beat em ups. The depth and flow is insane, and it has such a great aesthetic. Balls to the wall hard though, made it to stage 5 without a credit.
