    Solid points. Streets of Rage 4 is a great game because it feels exactly like it's 16 bit predecessors.

    • @barrywallace2744
      @barrywallace2744 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +16

      The fact of the matter is SOR 4 DOES NOT feel like the originals on the Genesis. SOR 4 is horrendous it is a poor facsimile of a game, it completely lacks the feel of the original, SOR is slow cumbersome with bad controls and has some of the worst art ever to appear in a game. SOR 4 should never be compared to the originals as that would be doing the originals a complete disservice.

    Yeah, I understand what you're saying. When I saw SOR in 3D, I immediately thought of that first next Gen SOR demo that was supposed to release on Dreamcast. I think they should have stuck with the 2D aspect of it like with SOR4. They should do the same with the new Golden Axe, although looking at the video demo of it, it does have some Dragon's Dogma/arcade dungeon crawler vibes to it (are there any arcade style dungeon crawlers out there??) Only game I'm really checking for out of the group is Shinobi; I'm getting some metroidvania vibes from it.

    What makes the SOR formula work is the strategy involved in crowd management. Learning the player moveset to execute different throws and attacks based on the situation and Tying enemies up and strategically throwing and executing moves to prevent ganking, sneak attacks etc. is what gives the games depth.
    Can easily be extrapolated to 3D just as long as the director understands this fundemental aspect of the gameplay. Looks like they may do to an extent as there's a takedown move on display, so that adds one element of potential strategy for crowd control. They just need to add in the movesets and enemy crowding and it will work.
    Give the player options to flex their skills and get the satisfaction of controlling the mob well is the secret here.

You need moves that attack in all the directions, so you can maintain control...you'll need attacks that cover 360 both in the air and on the ground....and the ability to control the thrown weapons in the same way....THATS how you make a 3d beat um up....

    Cool to see these series coming back, but SEGA probably shouldve started Golden Axe out with a 2D game to get thier feet wet again. Establish shit again a little more, then maybe get more experimental. With SOR4 they atleast had a very strong 2D revival. If they fuck up the 3D version there might be some room to bring it back with a 2D SOR6. Its going to be hard to match that pacing and flow of such a tight 2D game in 3D. It can be done but its a huge undertaking. Its also hard to make it feel like an SOR game at that point. I could see a behind the back style like God Hand working better for a 3D SOR.

      I definately get the sense that SEGA is not the same company anymore. Theyve made some strange decisions in the past, so Im more confident that Golden Axe and SOR will be more like GA and SOR flavored games with completely different gameplay, likely worse than the originals. At best they will retain some of the themes but I dont have high expectations for GA or SOR in 3D, from them. Shinobi looks more promising. Crazy Taxi was a fun game for a little while when I got it on the DC, but I never got hardcore into the scoring so it didnt give me a ton of replay. Not a series Im that interested in but will check them all out. I will play through a mediocre game out of curiosity, but only pay 40 + if the games look top tier. @@ironhell813

At least fear of playing badly in a video is the only logical reason I can see for Top Hat Gaming Man to be terrified of the next Streets of Rage. I just wish they would bring back the Shining Force series as a SRPG, turn-based Phantasy Star, Skies of Arcadia, and maybe if the stars hit the exact right once in five hundred years alignment a new Sakura Taisen game with the tactical battles of the original games. Or hell just bundle the first five main series games and release them all in the US this time.

    On the other hand, they’ve made some pretty decent new games in some of their IPs. Shinobi has had decent titles, including 3D, but nothing really new since PS2. And they’ve generally been successful with the Phantasy Star Online games. I’m still cautiously excited for the new titles.

So not spending a lot of money on these games makes sense... but then your only two choices are high-end 2D or low-end 3D.
