Streets of Rage Sunday: "Final Crash" Shiva Move

Hey folks! So right now in the United Kingdom it is coming up to 8am. I have been up since around 6am (body clock lol) So I decided to play this Streets of Rage.

Here is a screenshot of the game. I am playing a survival mode type deal using Shiva from Streets of Rage 2. I took the pic with a camera whilst playing and the picture has an interesting look into the framework of Shiva's Final Crash move.

I thought this was quite a unique look and a good capture of one of the most nostalgic moves in Shiva's unique arsenal of fighting moves.

Hardest Boss Battles: Shiva (SOR2)

This is Shiva. 

He is the second to last boss in Streets of Rage 2.

Although he is the battle before the main boss, the fight with Shiva is an intense and long one! He is quick and lightning fast, attacking quickly and suddenly, countering most of your moves with a spinning kick, booting you in the face out of no where, just generally a pain....but one of the most awesome pains of a boss battle ever!
