Angry Street 4 Damn good. But do you know what is better? Use the arcade controls to play.
They say that in modern times, fighting is impossible. They are too boring, too simple. Yes, Golden Axe is great, but remember how bad the modern revival is? Just doesn't work. And "Final Fight" is very fond of-but to become those characters in 2020, the only thing you can play is inside Street Fighter.
but not. An angry street 4. happened. it works. In the end, Sega did n’t even do this – the smaller publisher Dotemu borrowed IP and worked with independent studios Guard Crush Games and Lizardcube. Sonic mania is here again-fans who burned the neon streets of the original Bare Knuckle trilogy on Mega Drive into the retina can finally apply this knowledge forever. Like Sonic Mania, the results are very good. For those who grew up in the 1990s, this is actually a tonic for the soul.
I want to make it clear. No matter how you play, "Angry 4th Street" is absolutely amazing. It is full of energy and heart, making the beat of 2D arguing shine. In many ways, this is a game that is more than the sum of its parts. It stands out with a simple, simple, retro experience. feels good. The music is flying like a tide, the visual effects are shining, and you feel like an absolutely godly villain. But it feels better.
You will see that "Angry Street 4" has a combination system that actually starts to resemble a fighting game. Don't believe me-just take a look at the combined video in this embedded tweet. It's disgusting.
Anger 4 block combination system is very interesting, here is a corner combination of Blaze Day.
Thank you @Lizardcube

The natural conclusion of adding this rich combination potential from the series is obvious: If playing on an arcade joystick, Rage 4's Streets will be even better.
Although the classic trilogy was originally designed for Sega's Mega Drive / Genesis hardware, there is indeed a pedigree of arcade games that makes it meaningful: the first two games released arcade games on Sega's Mega Play technology, and the difficulty improve.
I ended up playing "Angry Street 4" by chance and habit. A few years ago, I was bored in the spring. It didn't seem to have rained, so I was trapped indoors. I sat around a pile of old PC parts, gathering dust, and some raw materials left by the house decoration. Therefore, I set a goal for myself: to build arcade machines. This is one of the best things I have done in my free time, and I have been thinking about writing such a build entry for VG247 for a long time. (Will you read one?)
Inside the machine is a Windows PC, which can perfectly simulate the old arcade machine, and also has enough ability to run modern games. Compared to me in the home arcade community, smarter people provide a fancy open source UI that can seamlessly browse games and games in a more relaxed front end than current game consoles. To be honest, this is my favorite gaming device at home, even if its purpose is very specific.
The truth is that this machine is mainly used for old games-the NFL Blitz drunk game after the end of a friend, to ease the pressure of the time crisis or "House of Undead 2"-but modern things are a good choice. Therefore, no matter what arcade game, I can get it from the dedicated Steam account of this machine. Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter and Street of Fury 4 are natural steps.
I do n’t think I ’d think of inserting an arcade joystick to play “Angry Street 4” without the street cabinet as an incentive, but I ’m glad I found the feeling of hitting combos on those mainframes. In Sanwa Denshi, the button It seems that the game is part of Marvel Vs. Capcom
SOR4 is very good on ordinary controllers, maybe it has good authenticity on Mega Drive or Saturn return controllers, smashing a lot of buttons and seeing cool things is just something in the Bible. In many ways, using the oversized control method to make a heavy slab seems to exaggerate what makes Streets of Fury 4 such an excellent performance.
In my opinion, video games have returned to the simplest and most primitive state. Duel is never a game that requires excellent performance and strict execution of fighting games, but sometimes requires a specific input method feel Correct. Just like the first time you play an arcade light gun game with a light, heavy, and slack recoil, it is impossible to return to a static, non-feedback gun after that.
anyway. The streets of Rage 4 are really bloody. If you have an arcade joystick, try this game. If you have not already done so, please consider carefully reading our (outdated) arcade game buyer's guide. Or, if you are crazy like me, consider building a complete street cabinet. Some of these options are more extreme than others-but for the exciting retrogression of the 1990s, they are well worth it.
