Final fight 3 haggar special series#

The music is reminiscent of past games in the series, and while you won’t be rushing to buy Final Fight 3’s soundtrack, it’s enjoyable and fairly catchy.Īs the series would go on to become a 3D fighter in Japan, and then have a gritty (read: shitty) reboot in 2006, this is the last classic Final Fight game, and it does the franchise proud. A staple of Final Fight, the crushed vocalized grunts and groans are back and give the game a comfy nostalgic feeling.

Sound effects for hitting enemies are satisfying and have bass they really make your punches feel like they’re connecting. The music and sound fit the action well, and serve to raise your adrenaline and push you forward through the game. I still have hope for another Final Fight release where you begin the fighting right in Haggar’s office where he usually makes his angry, prologue phone calls, but Final Fight 3’s locales don’t disappoint. You’ll fight in a prison, storefronts, on a moving bus, an elevator, a rooftop, and more. If only our heroes hit the enemies this hard. As in the previous games, you also often make it to the next screen or area by doing a badass flying kick through chain link fences, glass windows, and even solid walls. Certain elements of the background are also destructible with the use of certain moves or by bashing an opponent close to them. I’ve always loved the series’ backgrounds, but the settings in which you break gangster bones this time are especially noticeable and pleasing. I was going to say beautiful, but many of the game’s villains are (intentionally) ugly. Character and enemy sprites are well animated and always well-drawn. Speaking of cool looking, Final Fight 3 is definitely the best looking game in the series. Just kill them faster than they can spawn, right? In all seriousness, this can really hamper your enjoyment of this mode, and I’d suggest you play alone, or with another human. However, the game takes those without brawling buddies into consideration with a mode that allows you to have an AI comrade to help you, but this slows the game down when the screen is crowded with enemies. As the third entry in the series, one would think that the weak stories and button mashing gameplay would have the series become stale, but Capcom rectified this by adding new modes, characters, and special moves with commands straight out of Street Fighter 2.įinal Fight 3 can be played single player or two players it’s a standard beat ’em up fare. Aided by two new playable characters, Lucia and Dean, they beat their city back into shape, one punk at a time. Everyone’s favorite wrestling mayor and bright red wearing ninja are back to save Metro City from a gang who’s risen from Mad Gear’s ashes.
