Well I know the comment was made 11 months ago but the mad lads actually did it and let me tell you something... it’s hard as heck, even on normal difficulty, so this means that the other games where harder
Just finished playing this game recently. I'm not a fan of Skate or his M.O., but I DO respect those who clearly know what they're doing with him. Well done, sir.
For the claw dude in the theme park you can lock him in a loop if you get him in the middle, get him in a hold and just do the head smash to elbow. He’ll fall and just be for he gets up do your stake dash cannon ball, he’ll get up and do his uppercut move but you’ll be behind him and you’ll have enough time to grab him again and repeat the process. It’s cheap I know but on the mania difficultly every bit of health counts.
As much as I enjoy the new games of today with the realistic graphics and everything about it. there’s something about these old-school games like this one that just hits better
Yes! Finally! Like 2 years ago Botchamania used the level 1 music in a video but I couldn't find what it was from until just now! So catchy and simple! I think it was the episode with Chris Jericho and AEW with a little bit of the bubbly if anyone is curious! From early 2020 I believe! I am definitely going to try this game out for myself soon! The first seemed pretty good but this one seems even better. It has a cool and pleasant energy and mystique about it
If you watch the whole video, you can see that the live counter does go up and down. In SoR2 if you go above 9 lives, the live counter doesn't go any higher but the game does keep track of the extra lives. Towards the end of the video where I start dying a lot the lives counter starts to go down again.
The game resets the clock everytime you die as well. You can see that in Mike & James (Cinemassacre) playthrough at this moment. th-cam.com/video/XLCP2bkQxxQ/w-d-xo.html
TheBlackdragon936 this dude is beast in this. I was also the goat of this game. Played it on all difficulties with all characters. Blaze and axel are my favorite characters in the game. Blaze being my 1st and axel being my 2nd. Hannnnnnnnnn he really chefin these dudes an ass whippin something ugly
This is still my childhood favorite on Sega Genesis since 1992 back then, which I still play it via Emulators Now and Days especially on Mania Mode Difficulty also…!
Amida Kombe You hold Up + Jump button until you touch the floor. It tells you how to do it in the game's manual and it's pretty much required to beat the game past the Normal difficulty.
I still feel like the enemies shouldn't be able to hit skate when he's on top of their shoulders lol. Although it makes it more realistic that they can.
If you look at the shadows, you'll see I'm above him so I miss him with my dash attack and the AI misses me with the punch since it doesn't move up to attempt to hit me.
@@g_gao3181 Oh, if you hold Up + Jump while you are thrown, you'll land on your feet instead of taking damage. This game would be much more aggravating if there wasn't a way to avoid damage from throws.
Our least favourite character (probably for being too young and immature to take on Mr X and his goons (which meant being accompanied by Axel, Blaze and Max since his brother Adam knew them well enough.

Who can take down a major crime syndicate? A young black kid from the inner city on roller blades, that’s who

Ou yeah
Granted, he’s doing all of this to save his kidnapped older brother but yeah.
@@hassantv100 I thought he was avenging Adams death because Adam got killed in part 1? If I'm not mistaken. That's tea I never sipped.
The ghost busters lol
This game brings back my childhood memories 😁.
lol my childhood never ended then still playing it lol
This is the kind of gameplay I like to see. No weird tricks, hacks, god like perfect timing. Just high level, attainable skilled gameplay.
Wow, the music brings back so many memories. My brother and I would play this all the time.
Same with me and my brother
They need to come out with a new version of this game. I used to love this game as a kid. Around 6,7,8 years old. This brings back memories.
They are
Streets of Rage 4!!!
@@DeezSkatesthey left the skate character out of streets of rage 4

That glitch on level one after the boss was hilarious.
Hahahaha yes it gave me a good laugh that part
🤣🤣🤣 BEST SUCKER PUNCHES EVER
I used to love the bar music. Shits smooth as hell
I’m 35 now..I played this when I was 6!! Skate was my dude 👍🏾👌🏾 thanks for the upload
Awesome run! R.Bear is such a hard boss
Nahhh, make sure you have a sword on approach, ideally with Max or Axel and spam him with sword. Can be done without single life loss if smart

I always feel sorry for Skate when he tries to swing pipes and swords. ;*(
Skate and Blaze were my favorites to plan with!
Skate is more difficult than Blaze and Axel in my opinion. However, he's the best character once you've got his skillset down pat.
And what exactly were you planning?
@@TallSilentGuy probably ment to say play

My favorite character in Streets of Rage 2.
john doe deadass
his "woo kee kee" move is pretty badass!
30 yrs of rinsing this game knowing it inside out and yet never seen that L1 boss ending before 😂
Yes! Finally! Like 2 years ago Botchamania used the level 1 music in a video but I couldn't find what it was from until just now! So catchy and simple! I think it was the episode with Chris Jericho and AEW with a little bit of the bubbly if anyone is curious! From early 2020 I believe!
I am definitely going to try this game out for myself soon! The first seemed pretty good but this one seems even better. It has a cool and pleasant energy and mystique about it
The music is amazing
One of my favorite games and the soundtrack was dope. I used to use Skate all of the time.
i lol at what Skate says every time he does his Corkscrew kick move, because it sounds like he's saying "woo kee kee!"
7:14, 7:33, 11:04, 11:37, 12:10
29:56 - what a waste of the Woo Kee Kee move!
I always heard it as "Whoop-dee-dee!" A cry of exultation and excitement that he's able to perform a physically impossible maneuver
no it's actually the name of the move he's doing: Corkscrew Kick.
@@matthewrivera5923 he says corkscrew kick
I love this lil dude he does drill drives and cannon spikes like he's killer bee cammy
Nice glitch after u beat the boss on stage 1 even though Donovan is knocking skate ass out lol 😅😅
nostalgic
Every one of these characters were a delight to play as
I always thought he said, "O.C.P.!" for corkscrew kick.
Years since this game has been out....And it's STILL way over than Roman Reigns!!! Lol love this game
And only 2 cheats code activated. Pretty good!
Max was my favourite character from the game 😃😎😁
Classic good old games
Sooo many memories....good ones
You know why the guys wanted to beat up Skate in the bar? Because he came there looking for sailors.
Was that stage 1 boss Montell Jordan? I played this game every day and got good at it like you. Glad to see you don't use the exploits.
Never mind you had infinite lives
If you watch the whole video, you can see that the live counter does go up and down. In SoR2 if you go above 9 lives, the live counter doesn't go any higher but the game does keep track of the extra lives. Towards the end of the video where I start dying a lot the lives counter starts to go down again.
Frank Levick even given that, the time should not reset every time you die.

I was like 4 when I played this game for the first time with my brother on his laps, and I was so focus I'd punch the air to help him win lol
This is still my childhood favorite
on Sega Genesis since 1992
back then, which I still play it
via Emulators Now and Days
especially on Mania Mode
Difficulty also…!
Nice one! Mine is coming up with Axel soon on same difficult level!
Bons tempos que não voltam mais!
Good shit!
Streets Of Rage 2 OST - Vertiphon 2017 Remaster: th-cam.com/video/ULIV-QyrHDUC/w-d-xo.htmlomplete remaster of this soundtrack here.
how do you land on your feet when they throw you?
Amida Kombe You hold Up + Jump button until you touch the floor. It tells you how to do it in the game's manual and it's pretty much required to beat the game past the Normal difficulty.
Hold B & C together as soon as you land
Skate was the best to play
I also hate that boss at the ship. He looks 450 kilograms; 20 kilograms of bones, rest is muscles/organs. Fvcking giant.
Russian bear is a pain
Make sure you have a sword on approach with Max and Axel easy to kill R.Bear with minimal health loss. Not so easy with weakling Skate
Max and Blaze are my favorites
kickass run
Did'nt these bad people know that they should'nt hit kids.
They are gang members and they kidnapped his brother. Of course they'll want him out of the picture. But it doesn't matter he can handle them anyways.
That Alien Scorpion Rattlesnake Idiot Was Soo Easy To Defeat to me
alina and brown85 I thought it was a vagina
I call skates JJ From GOODTIMES.
The fact that he didnt make a return in sor4 is criminal, tf were they smoking when they decided to not include him? 🤨
7:54 Precious
it is like a movie lmao
Best game ever. What's the name is the second song in the second part of the first board? Please and thank you I'm writing a song on this beat.
That is the game beat
Fights all those guys with skates on lol
How do you break your fall wen they throw you? 🤷🏿♂️
Hold Up + the jump button in mid air until you land.
Donavan still alive at 1st boss wow never seen tht b4
I still feel like the enemies shouldn't be able to hit skate when he's on top of their shoulders lol. Although it makes it more realistic that they can.
7:55 WTF XD
Lmao that was funny
Streets of rage a game of my childhood me Alan the multiracial Hispanic with dark skin Hispanic not really a race great game of my childhood
Press 2up Start?
That's the game's way of letting a second person join in if they have another controller handy.
Dope
Poor Galsia
Press F to him
13:25??????
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be seeing here.
@@ThatguyLFS2 it's a blow he gives a dead back or a razor
he even jumps back
Sensacional
Skate use to clear whole elevators in seconds.
19:05 ??
If you look at the shadows, you'll see I'm above him so I miss him with my dash attack and the AI misses me with the punch since it doesn't move up to attempt to hit me.
sorry man, I mean 19:07, why did the ninja throw you but you didn't fall to the ground and get hurt?
@@g_gao3181 Oh, if you hold Up + Jump while you are thrown, you'll land on your feet instead of taking damage. This game would be much more aggravating if there wasn't a way to avoid damage from throws.
that makes sense bro, thanks for your explanation. This is my favorite game for my childhood summer vacation.
bring back skate for SoR4
Our least favourite character (probably for being too young and immature to take on Mr X and his goons (which meant being accompanied by Axel, Blaze and Max since his brother Adam knew them well enough.
haha....my tactic for the wrestler was always a jump kick
Yeah so do they call him skate because he has roller blades on him
PORQUE SKATE SE ELE ESTA DE PATINS
one dude on the streets of rage 2 full soundtrack video was mad because most of the people in the game are black
6:22 vs Amber Heard hahaha
try beat android score :D
Skater should where gum sheild
