DOS version

Old folks beating up on more old folks! I swear!

The Good
I was able to shut this game off before dying from hysterical laughter. Maybe it's the fact that practically EVERY single character here looks like a bunch of old folks trying to cane and gum each other to death as opposed to freaks and weirdos trying to slice one another's throats has something to do with it.

Or is it the fact that your character walks with his arms so low to his sides that he faintly resembles a lowland gorilla? Or perhaps it's those old women who beat the bejeebies out of you when you hit them. Oh, sweet revenge....grin

Or maybe it could also be that goofy as hell music that played when you were fighting geriatric punks on the street (the NES version's music not much better)!

Whatever case, I was laughing way too much at this.

The Bad
If you laugh too hard at this game, you may cause severe problems to your health.

Plus, there's that one factor too: the gameplay, graphics, sounds, and a music are all pitiful. End of story.

The Bottom Line
Bad Street Brawler: friends do not let friends play BSB alone. Make sure two people are there so they can laugh themselves silly (and hopefully not too much). It's either that or they'll just drop dead on the spot from the horrible gameplay.

This game deserves to have its girly butt kicked out the door! It's a stinky, stinky, port (and game) that should be outlawed and shot in the back.
