Streets of Rage Remake is a project created from scratch, it does not use reverse engineering nor a single line of code from the original games. It’s all based on visual interpretation, comparing how things work in the original games and trying to mimic it for Streets of Rage Remake.
Some of its functions:
* Animation timing, animation positioning, control response, X/Y/Z positions and physical movement for all characters are accurate to the original games.
* 64 modules of AI per enemy to represent walking and reactions.
* Collisions and damages based on the original games.
* The same score system algorythm that is used in SOR2.
* Grabs and vaults as in the original games.
* Autosave savestates that allow you to continue the game from the same point, exit windows, alt+x, etc.
* Prediction of resources, to speed loading times.
* All functions of all the original games in the series are emulated:
- Over 30 configurable options in the menu
- Star and Special Meter sytems
- 6-button controller actions
- Different types of weapons, and Special Weapon attacks
- Police specials
- And much more

SORR v5 Info
Streets of Rage Remake v5 is a mind-blowing SOR fangame, ultimately designed as a remake of the original Mega Drive trilogy, though in some ways it can be seen as a true sequel to SOR3. It is produced by Spanish fan community Bombergames, for the Windows platform, with ports for Linux, Nintendo Wii and the GP2X WIZ handheld planned. It is considered by many fans as the definitive SOR fangame, with some going as far as calling it the SOR4 that Sega never made. Truly, it has to be played to be believed - it really is that good. In my personal opinion, Streets of Rage Remake v5 has been produced to such a high standard I would expect no less from Sega themselves. Kudos to the development team for that exceptional achievement!
The game is programmed from scratch in Fenix programming language (which was developed specifically for 2D games development). It has a whole host of special features and upgrades which bring the SOR gameplay experience into the 21st century, without compromising the classic 'feel' of the originals. The game has 18 playable characters, including a fully recreated Adam in SOR2/3 style, new characters 'Rudra' and 'Elle' (Electra) and a host of awesome new music remixes! Mr. X and the Syndicate are back (again!), more powerful than ever! It's time to once again walk the Streets of Rage!
V5 is the final version, with no planned future revisions.
Sega forced the devs, BomberGames, to remove the game and all files relating to it .. but of course, that didn't stop the internet Within minutes of going live on the 5th of April 2011, it was downloaded hundreds of times It now has a permanent home on the fansite StreetsOfRage.net and it weighs in at 219MB. I wouldn't hold my breath for the GP2x/Wii/Linux ports, to be honest, not now Sega has got involved and stopped them releasing.. but at least the PC version is fine
This is a phenomenal piece of work, a true accomplishment and anyone who has ever enjoyed SoR will love this!

Man, this is SO fucking awesome!!! The amount of love and skill that has been put into this FAN remake is just staggering, it really ends up putting Sega to shame with their pathetic Megadrive Emulator-bundled SoR releases on PSN/IOS/Wii/Steam. THIS is what SoR is about! Everything about this remake just oozes class and style <3 <3 <3
Shiiiiit, well they certainly didn't tone down the difficulty.. that's for sure! Get my ass kicked quite easily, I'd forgotten just how challenging the game could be
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
