    Double dragon was epic

    Streets of Rage was good.

    Final Fight reminds me of endless days in an arcade feeding 10p into machines.

    Double Dragon or Target Renegade, all others paled in comparison

    Violence and Lubrication is the solution to fixing everything, if it still doesn't work, you need more lubrication.

    Double Dragon.

    Or Bad Dudes vs Dragon Ninja just for the name (also a fun game).

    Final fight was the one for me. Good memories of a holidays at Butlins and I played it at the arcade for so long and hammered the buttons so hard that I got cramp mid game double dragon for being the daddy, at least in terms of my gaming history. They literally don't make them like that anymore

    hmm, actually, Shadow Warriors (Ninja Gaiden) and Bad Dudes VS Dragon ninja, Vigilante and Golden Axe, and Shinobi, all classics. I stand by my earlier statement tho, its all about DD and Target Renegade.

    Target: Renegade. Loved that game to bits. I used to play it on my pals Speccy +3.
    An Atlantean Triumvirate, Ghosts of the Past, The Centre Cannot Hold
    The Pillars of Britain, Foundations of the Reich, Cracks in the Pillars.

    My books are available here for Amazon Kindle. Feedback always welcome!

    I agree with fraknyerk Double dragon and later final fight.

    I also remember Kung-Fu master although i was really poor at this game, it brings back strong memories.

    I also used to love the golden axe games and the teenage mutant ninja turtles side on beat em up !!
