Is the guy saying "oh my god" when you wreck his car? I always thought it was "oh, my car".

Cool site btw :)

Sweet site.

I'm more a fan of the original Final Fight. In fact, I'm just about completely oblivious to the other Final Fight games (FF2 and FF3 did absolutely nothing for me). So, the original will always be my favorite.

I remember getting the SNES version of Final Fight. I was like, "WTF?" No Guy, no Roxy, no Poison, no industrial area, and no Rolento! And for some strange reason, Damnd and Sodom have been renamed Thrasher and Katana respectively. It was still fun though.

Anyone else here like Holly Wood? I've always liked Holly Wood. His attacks and his Molotov wardrobe were so cool to me back in those days.

I think he says "oh, my car" in the heavily censured American Snes version.

And no whiskey ...

Notes for Final Fight for Super NES USA Version
- Roxy and Poison are replaced by two punks named Sid and Billy.

- The whiskey are replaced by vitamin .

I've enjoyed the Sega CD version for years! However since I picked up Capcom Classics Collection vol. 1 for PS2, the arcade version featured is the only one I've touched.

No. I hated Holly Wood, because he was seemingly the only enemy you faced for the last two levels of the game.

I think the Final Fight sequels were hurt, in that you can tell they were made strictly for the Super NES. Kind of like a movie that goes straight to dvd. It didn't help that there was no effort to have continuity among the characters. Haggar was the only common character that I noticed in all three games. What was the point of introducing two new playable characters in the second game that were never really heard from again in the FF series?

As for the character names being changed for the first SNES game, it didn't make much difference since neither Sodom or Damnd were part of the storyline, other than being cannon fodder for the good guys. It never mattered to me what they were called.

Yeah the sequels especially streetwise lacked a respectable mulitplayer mode

The trick to El Gato/Holly Wood is that, true to the namesake (The Cat) they never actually fall down. The minute their falling animation finishes they're standing up again. When fighting groups of them this makes it super easy to throw the same one over and over again until it's knocked out (knocking down all the others around you in the process). This is also doable with the Andores though more risky since they have two grab attacks.

Get the timing right and you can punch their throwing knives out of the air, same with Belgar's spears at the end of the game. :D

The thing that REALLY kills the SNES port is that there will never be more than three enemies on the screen at once. I can take that game down on one life. Also, oddly the music from the Industrial Area level is still in the game (the elevator song is even listenable via the sound test on the cheat menu). They even kept the breaking glass bonus stage. What a tease.

Haggar was the only common character that I noticed in all three games.

Guy is back in FF3 and Rolento is back in FF2. FF3 is very much wasted potential. Great soundtrack and gameplay speed, not a bad variety of moves for an SNES beat'em up, but the there's so few songs overall and no more enemy variety than in the original game. If it were made on CPS hardware it would be top notch.

The US SegaCD version of Final Fight is censored too. Roxy/Poison are in it but their Daisy Duke shorts have become longer and their shirts also no longer reveal the lower halves of their breats. Beer is replaced with Milk, "OH! MY CAR," etc.

What I meant was that Haggar is the only guy who shows up as a playable character in all three. It seemed cheesy that neither Guy nor Cody showed up in the second game. Meanwhile, neither Carlos nor the chick from FF2 appeared in the third game. Dean seemed to be a wasted character, from the third game, and could have easily been Cody. He had pretty much the same attributes.

[Neo Rasa]

Dean plays very differently from any of Cody's incarnations. He's the slow grappler of the group. Dumb move since HAGGER is in the game, they foolishly made a new character the unstoppable powerhouse instead of the recurring mainstay. Outside of he and Cody both having a knee drop type move they're totally different beasts.

I agree though, to create a character with the number moves, etc. that he has and then NEVER USE HIM AGAIN is pretty stupid. Especially when any character from the previous games appearing in that slot would have been welcomed with open arms.

Man I really hate FF2. Maki is absurd and Carlos only uses his sword for his escape move? Final Fight: A franchise destroyed by wasted potential.
