DenHond plays Streets of Rage for the Sega Master System - Part 7 of 7


Can you believe the final boss battle for this game?

The Battle Against Mr. X


He'll send two Red Galsias, two Purple Kung Fu Guys, and two White Signals at you. Unlike the 16-bit version, you don't have the luxury of having a pipe at Mr. X's feet to pick up and smack these guys in the face with. After that, you'll face Mr. X himself.

Thanks to the Sega Master System's limitations, you'll be screwed over when it comes to throwing enemies at him. Instead, you'll have to wait for him to get close so that you can pound on him with your standing combo. The chances of you grabbing him are extremely low, since there's no way of knowing if he's running around of if he's using a ram attack (there's no frames showing him ramming you with the butt of his maching gun), because he can damage you if you walk right into him. Consider yourself lucky if you're able to actually grab him and execute two knees and a German suplex on him. His life meter is pretty big, so be prepared to spend a little bit more time with him than you would the other bosses.

When you finally beat him, you'll get the ending...with no credits. Yeah, that's such a letdown, especially since you went through all that trouble just to take Mr. X (and a buggy game) down.
