When it comes down to the beat em up genre we got the chance to see the release of many big titles such as TMNT: Turtles in Time, X-Men Arcade along with others that were very popular during the early 90’s. However, towards the mid 90’s we got to see games such as Final Fight 3 and Streets of Rage 3 that were considered to be under beat em up titles. Final Fight 3 had nice graphics a cool plot along with new characters from its predecessor Final Fight 2 while seeing the return of Mike Haggar and Guy.

Streets of Rage 3 was also a pretty cool beat em up with larger stages than its predecessor along with the addition of new characters from its prequel Street of Rage 2. There is no doubt that Street of Rage 3 had nice graphics and better gameplay than its prequel but the fact that the game had alternate ending made it much more interesting. One of the biggest complaints about Street of Rage 3 is the game’s overall difficultly. In terms of which beat em up game was better between the two really depends if your more of a Genesis or SNES fan overall.
