This city was once a happy, peaceful place...until one day, a powerful secret criminal organization took over. This vicious syndicate soon had control of the government and even the police force. The city as become a center of crime and violence where no one is safe.
Amid this turmoil, a group of determined young police officers has sworn to clean up the city. Among them are Adam Hunter, Axel Stone and Blaze Fielding. They are willing to risk anything...even their lives...on the...

Streets of Rage
This playthrough is on Normal, by the way.
Round 1 takes place in the downtown area of the city. This part is basically really easy, even on Hardest.
The orange-haired guys in blue are your standard meat-and-potatoes flunky. A full combo takes them out easily. They're usually known by the name "Galsia." (In Streets of Rage 3, they anglicized it to "Garcia.")
The yellow guys with the purple mohawks have two attacks: a slide and a throw. They're usually known as "Signals." (I'm going by Streets of Rage 2 enemy names, so bear with me.) They can be taken out fairly easily as well. In case they or any enemy throws you, hold Up and press C right before you hit the ground, and you'll land on your feet without taking throw damage.
The Asian martial artists move fairly slow, and all they really have are kick attacks and backflips. They're also easy.
The red dominatrices can hit you with their whips and knock you to the floor with one strike if you mosey around. They fall easily, but they don't have to get really close to hurt you, so watch out!
This is a pretty interesting stage. There are telephone booths to smash up and find items in, neon lights for every store, and for some strange reason everyone drives a late-'80s Jeep Grand Cherokee...unless you're a police officer. Hey, the same one shows up in the foreground every five seconds!
The weapons you'll pick up as you go are your standard street fighting affair. Bottles that break upon meeting an enemy's head (nice!), baseballs bats, metal pipes and knives make up your first tools of destruction. If you drop a weapon three times, though, it disappears.
Apples refill part of your health, while meat refills it completely. You'll usually find meat near the end of a stage in case you're needing extra health for the boss battle.
The boss here is some sort of weird guy with denim outerwear, a striped shirt and a crew cut carrying a boomerang. He'll kick at you before you finish your combo, and throw boomerangs in a desperate attempt to hit you in the back of the head. When he throws them, he's most vulnerable, but you can grab him just about anytime you want and whack away at him.
