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.

Blur effect showing multiple frames in the 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: Dragon Lair

Thinking back and thinking about just how hard some of the bosses were back in the day on consoles like the NES and Mega Drive, leaves me unfufilled with modern day gaming. There is way too much focus on graphics than the more important aspect, gaming.

Here is a good example of a quite difficult battle against a dragon in a NES game called Dragon Lair,You will notice it is just a projectile fest kind of a boss battle! Enjoy!

Hardest Boss Battes: TMNT Bosses.

Pure hatred for the boss battles

The NES game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle was in my eyes, a pretty solid title when it came to boss fights. It was one of those games where you know you were in quite a firece battle as soon as the music changed. A lot of others have also expressed hatred when it comes to the difficulty of the fights.

Here's a collection of the boss battles in the game.

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!
