Final Fight CD (1p)
Graphics-7.5 Sound-8 Control-7 Challenge-8 Story-5
Level Design-6.5 Frustration-9 Fun-7 (6.5) Originality-6
Overall Score-7
+ Difficulty options, three playable characters, large sprites, decent variation in level designs (elevator, grenade thrower, fire traps), beat up cars and set pieces, tough bosses, little to no slowdown (1p), pile drivers
- Hit detection is pretty off at times (bosses grab you from a couple of 'meters' distance), some scratchy voices, some trial & error (enemies falling down from above, bosses that neglect your attacks to do theirs seconds before they actually do the attack), second bonus level is really lame
cheap hits (you often get hit just as you're getting up or when lying down (Abebe, the dynamite chuckers), some thugs look like marionettes (anatomic-wise), repetitive (there are like 6 different enemies in the game), can't throw away pipes and swords, could've used more colours (the MD was capable), minor flicker with a lot of action on screen
