coin-op its been converted

actually completed the

arcade machine, I can't see

the later levels of this 'un

actually). If you're a fan of

which is especially fun

because you have to smash

up boxes and other objects

before you can ﬁnd them,

and once you've got 'em you

can use them to crack open

the opponents' sculls,

hurrah!

The game is a bit of a

laugh, doubly so when

you've got an able chum to

take control of your other

joystick. It was all coded by

Mike Hutchison from

Creative Materials, whose

previous track record

contains the

excellent E-Swat and

the, er, OK Double

Dragon II, so his two-

player games are

constantly on the

way up; and Final

Fight is his best to

date.

The graphics,

blocky though they

are, are brilliantly

through. In fact, it's a beat-

'em-up-and-a-half, since

you can even invite a

friend to come along

and kick the crap

out of some

of the locals.

What also

makes it a tad

different to the

normal ﬂock of

such games is

that there's a fair

few moves to perfrom and

each of the three characters

you play have different

attributes. Added to that is

An extra bonus (or

David Bowie!), which is full of

enemies - more of those

will enable you to have a

better punch and kick like a

The only problem is that

the Labyrinth will only appear

when certain conditions in

the chapter are achieved...
