*sounds of Estel being slammed on the train ceiling* Commissioner: um, should I help? I think I’ll just stay inside the train... Commissioner 2: oh my god I was just thinking the exact same thing!
I think he’s the best-designed “tank” type. Max in SoR2 was probably better but he also had some surprising mobility with slide and shoulder tackle, which is why I really appreciate how they designed Floyd. He plays more like a slow bruiser but his tools are so good and so much fun!
- he is a beefy boi - he can do the "grab two mooks and knock their skulls together" move - he has Iron Man's Proton Cannon conclusion: SoR4 is Floyd's superhero origin story.
I've watched all of your Streets of Rage videos. You truly have this game mastered. Watching you play reminds me of when I was a kid and used to watch Kung Fu movies with my brother. We would try to mimic all of the moves because the actors and stunt men made it look so easy only to realize that it's a sweet science behind all of that stuff and those ppl train hours on in. Keep it up. I've tried to play mania by myself with Axel and Adam (my two favorite characters) and I just completed stage 6. Lol!!!
The game doesn't even have a TV commercial and only a few gaming channels are even talking about it. Stop being ridiculous. The genre has been dead for a long time now
@@dangamer8884 ....anyway so as i was saying i really think its brought it back to the main stream. and btw...ppl dont really watch tv anymore...fortnite NEVER had a tv commercial yet look at it. so....yeah.
I have learned SO MUCH that I was doing wrong playing Floyd. Thank you ever so much for this upload and your fantastic gameplay and I hope to be able to beat this mode now thanks to your help!
Why because they black lol j/k yeah they are dope to play with I didn't like Adam at first but once I got used to him I was like damn he might be one of the top characters to play with he's an all around character
@@thee_morpheus Facts bro I do the same I'm a monster with Floyd I just hate fighting bosses that are fast and quick on their feet because Floyd is so slow that it's hard for him to escape certain attacks unless he uses his air special attack
@@DocKaosBeats yeah I use Cherry for one stage which is that concert stage with that DJ boss. For the others I just move up and down and lot and change planes
I'm commenting again just to draw attention to the fantastic gameplay at 48:50. Your patience really paid off. Estel: "Backup req--" STAGE 7 CLEAR Estel: "shit."
It's nice to see the replayability of this game is taken full advantage of. All your vids explore the countless hours of XP you built up possibly from other games . Great footage for true fans trying to get better. I took mental notes, and if there is DLC I hope to see your approach on that too.
28:40 Really like the new SoR soundtrack, and this here seems like it's incorporating Razors.Out (from The Raid:Redemption). Amazing vid, can't get timing down for anyone other than Adam right now.
Amazing performance ... as usual 😁 Thank you for these videos. You have an amzing skill! Also ... as a casual old player ... I am definitely maintaining Floyd
Adam is my guy, I agree he's one of the best characters in the game; and whenever I play online co-op, 9 times out of 10 the other person chooses Floyd. The character isn't really my style, but the guy is a BEAST and works well with others, something I can't say as readily for other characters.
My favorite character is Cherry, her moveset is one of the best for combo strings plus shes quick............unlike any of the other characters in the game
@@johnnyjacks8212 I love fast characters as well. Cherry was my first pic, until I figured Adam out. He doesn't have all of Cherry's mobility, but his dash is EVERYTHING. That said I've returned to Cherry, she's an amazing character once you start tinkering with her. She has to work harder than the rest of the cast but I'm learning she has some great tricks up her sleeve. This is just a great game!
Amazing video! I definitely have learned quite a lot from this one. The slamming of the two mooks at the same time is the most creative move in all SOR history. There are things in this game that i can't praise enough - like the artwork and music. But then there are things which are just mediocre - like the animation quality and animation recycling (Blaze's head and Adam's Howl Fang to name a few). Followed by certain stuff that is just out of the blue (level design choices, ignoring previous games' strong points) And then there are things that are an epitome of slacking - like the old characters presented "as is", the so called "retro filter" (Photoshop or Sony Vegas pixelate effect does not equal pixel-art), character portraits in the extras - being just scans of the old box art - without even trying to hide (or enhance) this fact...and the overly hasty ending to boot. It always feels like three completely different teams worked on this (which was indeed the case). The first one was like: "let's max everything out"! The second one: "we did surpass the 1991 standards, right?" And the third: "just copy-paste the damned stuff and be done with it!"... Streets of Rage 4 is a great game in it's own right...but it is a lack of a high quality competition, which allows it to hang so close to the throne. But as for the royal seat itself: oldschool still holds its ground too firmly to surrender.
SOR4 Blaze and Max are my favorites but i am probably biased from SOR2 being my favorite game from my childhood ha. Your comments on how good Floyd is helped me decide to use him next on my Arcade mania runs. After i finish Adam oc.
34:30: You did Barbon dirty there and you know it. So disrespectful. EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw 48:50. That was a civil conversation compared to that.
Axel is the weakest. He's slow as fuck and his specials always end up with him in a pose that staggers for milliseconds. Tho it's the character I enjoy using the most it is definitely the one I struggle more
@@usedsweatpants799 Good news: The upcoming balance will improve Axel to move faster and improve his specials as they can OTG. I saw footage of it and plays much better as well.
@@masterlee1988 hope so. he's like a walking dead walking and his dragon smash is pretty much useless on higher difficulties. they need to remove the stagger that happens and add a shield when he's performing the dragon smash since we can't move him. it's ridiculous when your chaining on multiple enemies and a galsia or whatever come from up or bellow and cancel the dragon smash with a slap
@@usedsweatpants799 You can find more about here: th-cam.com/video/rOTZhgSP3CU/w-d-xo.html That user will also do a full playthrough with the balance patch as well as he already started on it.
48:50 you know when people say their homies hold them back? Well, they are fronting. If they weren't fronting then this is what they are talking about.
BTW, do you agree those damn Kuubos or whatever name they have those robots, are a lot harder than some bosses? I personally can't stand how cheap they are!🤬
48:50 Nastiest combo I’ve seen in all the SoR4 videos
Amazing Combo!!
78 hits!
First time I've actually felt bad for an SOR boss..LOL
After she's out, the parting Boot to the Head (hit 78) feels excessive.
He went super saiyan on her! Holy shit!
That was ridiculous. That boss can be annoying as well, especially if the Commish gets involved.
48:51 That has to be the sickest combo in a beat em up I’ve ever seen in my entire life! I thought this was Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for a minute!
*sounds of Estel being slammed on the train ceiling*
Commissioner: um, should I help? I think I’ll just stay inside the train...
Commissioner 2: oh my god I was just thinking the exact same thing!
Time stamp please
48:50
Floyd is one of the coolest heavy beat em up characters ever.
Max is 1,000 times better.
I think he’s the best-designed “tank” type. Max in SoR2 was probably better but he also had some surprising mobility with slide and shoulder tackle, which is why I really appreciate how they designed Floyd. He plays more like a slow bruiser but his tools are so good and so much fun!
No Max is
He sure is
Some of these people aren't reading your comment well you said "one" not the coolest 😅😂
- he is a beefy boi
- he can do the "grab two mooks and knock their skulls together" move
- he has Iron Man's Proton Cannon
conclusion: SoR4 is Floyd's superhero origin story.

IDK...Streets of rage 4 might've brought beat em ups back to the main stream.
Yes, simple but entertaining. Looking for this studio to do big things with TMNT, Golden Axe, Double Dragon and Final Fight.
@@thee_morpheus you should check out streets of fury ex, by guard crush games...its so freaking fun and silly.

Him and Adam are my co-mains lol, Floyd is slow but his ability to quick grab is VERY useful
Adam is everyone’s main. Every time I play online they pick him
Why because they black lol j/k yeah they are dope to play with I didn't like Adam at first but once I got used to him I was like damn he might be one of the top characters to play with he's an all around character
@@DocKaosBeats LOL they both play better, I like heavy characters like Floyd, i grab and throw as often as possible with pretty boy Floyd!
@@thee_morpheus Facts bro I do the same I'm a monster with Floyd I just hate fighting bosses that are fast and quick on their feet because Floyd is so slow that it's hard for him to escape certain attacks unless he uses his air special attack
@@DocKaosBeats yeah I use Cherry for one stage which is that concert stage with that DJ boss. For the others I just move up and down and lot and change planes
48:51 what kind of madness was that.......
That was godlike. With a disrespectful air meaty finish, it was nasty
Someone did that to me in an online match. In the second match, I tried something different, but not worked. And I did a rage quit lol
Holy crap lol
@@luqmanjohan1 Streets Of Rage Quit?
Came here to see if I could find hints on how to beat that part. Did not help.
I'm commenting again just to draw attention to the fantastic gameplay at 48:50. Your patience really paid off.
Estel: "Backup req--"
STAGE 7 CLEAR
Estel: "shit."
48:51 That combo was LEGENDARY!!!!!
53:20 - Well, that escalated quickly!
Hermes Agoraeus lol the way he stood still afterwards all like “well that sucked”. 😂
Hermes Agoraeus I would’ve tossed my TV if that happened to me
They saw what he did to estel before and took it into their hands to make him feel the same way, lmao
It’s brings joy to my heart watching Estel getting tuned up like that at 48:50 😊
It's nice to see the replayability of this game is taken full advantage of.
All your vids explore the countless hours of XP you built up possibly from other games .
Great footage for true fans trying to get better.
I took mental notes, and if there is DLC I hope to see your approach on that too.
Although this video is full of them, the finisher at 21:09 was epic. Amazing gameplay!
From level 3-4, shipwreck, from level 7-8, train wreck, from level 11-12, plane crash. Three thirds of transition every four levels.
Wow. I am really sweating hard on hardest and this guy is making it look so damn easy in Mania. Just amazing
I am not seeing enough playing Floyd, I thank you for taking the time to do so. I will be joyous if an older Skate can be available in the future
Learned more than a few things watching this run. Great combos and enemy awareness. Now we just need to figure out how to deal with Zamza!
We need to keep these videos up on TH-cam so dev see our excitement.
Dude...the juggling in that combo @48:51 is godlike!!! Dayum....you the man @Iconoclast
28:40 Really like the new SoR soundtrack, and this here seems like it's incorporating Razors.Out (from The Raid:Redemption). Amazing vid, can't get timing down for anyone other than Adam right now.
You have to play this game in order to appreciate this artful gameplay!! I just completed hard it was struggle doing hardest next!
That was a pleasure to see. I thought I would watch a few min and ended up watching it all...
Amazing performance ... as usual 😁
Thank you for these videos. You have an amzing skill!
Also ... as a casual old player ... I am definitely maintaining Floyd
3 mins in and I already feel bad for myself. This guy is fire 🔥
I've seen Floyd with a different shirt and hairstyle in the heroes gallery; it would be so cool if they were available as well.
Here's hoping some DLC or SoR5 has those features!
@@Lord_Muggs The timegap between SOR3 and SOR4 was 26 years. I wonder how much time it will take SEGA to make the fifth game.
Floyd is a beast = YOU is a beast. nice work!
Floyds my boy been wantin to see this vid cant wait to try some of these sick moves, keep it up your great!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've been looking forward to this vid. Adam might be a higher tier of character, but Floyd has an interesting fighting style.
Absolutely amazing! 0_o Floyd definitely seems to be the best character for tough challenges^^
Ooooh, I’ve been waiting on this. I’m attempting hardest now and the island is my nemesis!
So sick, like always!
I tellin' you the underground theme fits Floyd so well 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Adam is my guy, I agree he's one of the best characters in the game; and whenever I play online co-op, 9 times out of 10 the other person chooses Floyd.

SOR4 Blaze and Max are my favorites but i am probably biased from SOR2 being my favorite game from my childhood ha. Your comments on how good Floyd is helped me decide to use him next on my Arcade mania runs. After i finish Adam oc.
I gave up right after China town on normal mode. You definitely made it look easy.
Really? I did Normal for Arcade just fine. Characters like Adam, Blaze and the retro characters make it more manageable.
Estel had no chance to call for back up 🤣
Dude 1 hour 37 minutes, Floyd is ultra hot. I recognized his power the first time I played him.
Great video keep it up in the Streets of Rage.
Awesome ! I learned a lot on Floyd, thx.
Floyd kind of reminds of the Mortal Kombat Jax Briggs because of the cybernetic arms.
@cycobear86 That is true. Floyd also grabbed two thugs and bashed it together.
He even says "gotcha"
Incredible design and gameplay. Way overdue.
Floyd is by far the best character in this game.
Lol at Estel 2.0. You murdered her and she didn't even have the time to call the Comissioner...
34:30: You did Barbon dirty there and you know it. So disrespectful.
EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw 48:50. That was a civil conversation compared to that.
Looks like JAX from mortal kombat
Floyd looks like he specializes on lining up attacks so he hits as many as possible. He looks very fun
I understood it. You are BEAST!
48:50 lmao corner loop like in dragon ball fighterz, nice TOD.
48:50 Great stuff...you avoided Commissioner entrance
I am pleased garbbing someone with metal arms is followed by him saying "Gotcha!"
Lizard Cube sure know how to make good beat em up characters
Return of the jackson brigx
48:50 she got eaten alive by floyd's proton beam
well played dude, learned something from you
That combo on the woman cop wahou 🙃😯
I slept on Floyd Bro get it Poppin
😂😩🔥💯
jaja Wezzy yeah I wasn’t a fan of Floyd initially but he’s become my main
Haha Floyd was the very first person I picked soon as I started the game. Always been a fan of bulky characters
Floyd looks like Jax.
This guy Floyd is overpowered. Damn stronger than axel for sure
Yep, by far!
Axel is the weakest. He's slow as fuck and his specials always end up with him in a pose that staggers for milliseconds. Tho it's the character I enjoy using the most it is definitely the one I struggle more

48:50 That combo was godlike. Jesus. Lol. #GGs
48:54 shocked the fuck out of me, I was literally in awe 👏🏼
Floyds 3 punch infinite works on every single enemy other than Max and DJ, oh and the crab boss obviously.
This guy is at stage 6 with six lives & that boss didn't even phase this guy. 😏
Floyd is literally an entire unit god damn!
One of the few modern characters who’s hits actually sound like a heavy hit.
J. Vinton they ripped off Jax from Mortal Kombat even down to “Gotcha”
vivahernando1 I was about to say that
vivahernando1 I mean is it really that big of a deal? No one got sued, no one got a cease and desist order, no one seems to care.
Well, that’s good that they didn’t get sued I think mortal kombat vs streets of rage would be a cool sequel
48:50 IS MAHVEL BAYBEE
49:00 this is just freaking madness!!!!
Floyd Iraia is legit, he could ace pro wrestling training without fail.
7:05 good combo
48:50 Good grief dude. That felt like it was personal! lol
The commissioner popped you over the head for abusing that combo fool! Lol
Strange it never mentioned in the plot how Floyd lost his arms? My pet explanation is it was Abadede!
Check the character bio page for him in Extras
15:39 is the star power that we all been waiting to see.
48:50 When Floyd doesn't want you to request backup.
53:20 welcome to mania
48:50-49:18 Awesome juggle!!!!!
Floyd is awesome
DAT FUCKEN COMBO ON ESTEL 2!!! Mother of God, that was sex over hardwood!🤯
And that's the whole main gang. Retro character 1ccs or?
Yes.
I want all Retro Streets of rage 1, Streets of rage 2, and streets of rage 3, 1CC
I don't know if I'll do all of the retro characters, but I'll definitely clear it with at least a few of them.
ok.
@@iconoclast575 Cool! Your runs are inspiration!
You can do it your pro
48:50 floyd with them kof 95 combos
This is best streets of rage ever
This dude is nasty on the sticks
Floyd is my favourite character💪🏻💪🏻
Would love to see what they could do with final fight this game has finally put beat em ups back on the map
Now this is how it’s done!
he's the character I played least but certainly looks entertaining when you play :)
You came for 48:50 trust me
48:50 you know when people say their homies hold them back? Well, they are fronting. If they weren't fronting then this is what they are talking about.
zanza enfiou a porrada!!
Sor1 adam playthrough first please? :)
1:14:55 That music in that particular stage sounds like some shit you would hear from resident evil.
Am I the only one that was waiting for Shiva to use Amaterasu on Floyd? I mean, he use Kagebunshin no jutsu, and Raiton and Katon infused attacks.
BTW, do you agree those damn Kuubos or whatever name they have those robots, are a lot harder than some bosses? I personally can't stand how cheap they are!🤬
They can be a real problem if they get away from you, especially in stage 10.
Don Vecta Ugh they can escalate so fast. They hit so hard and the weapon summon forces you to shift gears and sometimes that’s just not feasible.
53:20 nise 🤣🤣🤣
Damn I want play it now
