Hello and welcome to



Final Fight "Streetwise" is a 3D "beat-em-up" made by famous Puzzle Fighter Turbo developer "Capcom". Final Fight "Streetwise" is the final game in the popular Final Fight franchise, and it is a mess. It's a game that, while it works, is overloaded with mini-games and a surprisingly decent hip-hop ruined by lovely metal. The back of the box for the European release of Final Fight "Streetwise" promises tracks from MF Doom and RZA but snatches that hope away by providing one track which is just a collab. You also don't play as Mike Haggar, the only Final Fight character people care about. It's a grim and gritty story that handles the grim and gritty aspects with all the subtlety of a Tom and Jerry episode. It is a mess. It is a mistake. I love this game. Welcome to the LP.



The "LP" of Final Fight "Streetwise" will be as following: my fellow fighter friends killeremcee, ChorpSaway and a_raving_loon will join me on this journey. Cut and Uncut video will be provided as usual. We'll be covering most of the sidequests this game has, unless they're minigames in which case they're only shown off once.

There will also be some thread participation, watch to the end of the first video to see what you can do! Good entries will be featured at the end of future updates!

I also ask as a rule to not have any story spoilers, nobody except me commentating knows what's in store for this game.


Hey FutureFriend, ya missed a sidequest, ya dumb oaf!
wow rude, okay first of all, im very smart and not dumb. second of all, this game can be kind of confusing and some of the sidequests are insane to try and find. the only walkthrough of this game i could quickly find never found all the sidequests either!

Hey FutureFriend, you moron stooge, are you going to show off all the upgrades?
first of all there were three stooges and i do not count as one of them. second of all, yes i'll try to. honestly there's not much special to them, they're mostly new combos and extra health so you probably won't notice either way.

Hey FutureFriend, you mondo maroon, are you gonna respect the lore?
Yes.

Kyle sounds like a dime-store Solid Snake that takes sidequests from prostitutes. Based on this alone, I already know he's going to show true heroism.

poison is not in the game, as this game doesn't seem to remember any of the actual popular final fight characters besides Mike the Wrestler

just wait until we get toolman's power of talking about how straight edge he is all the time and refusing to listen to anything besides nu-metal

speaking of heroes, here's a true fun fact: the story of final fight streetwise is loosely based on the epic of gilgamesh. there's more comparisons to be seen later but for now; cody travers is based on gilgamesh's companion enkidu as they are both wild men who love to throw down!

I didn't really know it was a franchise until now. I've played the original on so many platforms and never realized they made sequels.
Ok, some quick googling revealed that 2 and 3 were SNES exclusives, that explains a lot. Also, the SNES version of Final Fight seems to have removed almost everything fun and iconic from the game. No co-op multiplayer? No level transitions? Only two playable characters? Blood replaced with explosions? No Poison and Roxy? No Wheelchair for the final boss?

My gangster name is....Chat Bot.

You could play as Guy in a rental-exclusive version of the game. Called Final Fight Guy.

Cody was always my favorite Final Fight guy, and I can sort of dig his turn into some kind of fight addicted nihilist in the bright and colorful when he's in Street Fighter, but his turn here is just depressing.

They call me the Trash Man because I am constantly associated with garbage. Whether I'm thrown into garbage cans or being beaten with them.
