Does anyone remember this classic for the Mega Drive/Genesis.
A bunch of crime fighting ex cops kicking the living sh*t out of street punks trying to take back the city, it was superb, especially in 2 player mode.
They really need to do a remake of this and have a 4 player mode.

3 had such awful music... but 1 and 2 had amazing music for the time... probably one of the first times house music was used in a video game... Great graphics for the time, I was desperately awaiting a Dreamcast remake... But unfortunately, the side scrolling beat-em-up is too "simplistic" for today's market If it doesn't have a huge plot or confusing controls or 3-D perspectives, it seems mainstream gamers don't want it anymore
i remember playing 1 & 2 on the console. never really played 3 but i managed to get it for the emulator though it wasnt the same and the game kinda sucked.
i thought 2 was the best.

Beats Of Rage is available for the PS2, Xbox, & DC...no one is really givin a hoot about the PS2 and Xbox version cuz it was expected to be a great game to begin with...the DC version on the other hand is runnin on a slower system but still runs at the same speed as the other two with no slow down...a couple of mods are on their way...
i played this game, and it seriously reminded me of Street Of Rage...such a wonderful game...i played that on the Genesis and still remember playin through it...memories...

Oh yeah, I still having this game, but I don't play! I remember in the part II how you could choose 4 fighters; a girl, one skater, a black guy and a blond guy. Was one of my fav. mega drive games!!
