Gorbash 8 years 3 months ago Posts: 361	One of the few scrolling beat'em'ups I can not remember the name of because I only played it a few times many years ago. All I remember was the first real boss was fought on the back of a moving truck, there were chainsaws, motorbikes and the over all art of it was dark and back street-ish sort of feel to it. It was kinda Cadillac and dinosaur-ish Any help would be great.

Combatribes, Burning Fight or Crude Buster comes to mind.

That description reminds me of Vendetta (made by Konami). You fight one of the bosses, the 2nd one, in the back of a truck. He has this massive buzzsaw blade. I don't remember there being any bikes in that section though.

Alex Dee Rokket 8 years 3 months ago Posts: 36	It's one of my favorite bash 'em up games. It's like a better looking Streets of Rage 2 n 3. There's a few I suppose unique things about Vendetta. One of them is that you can kick / punch them while they're dizzy on the ground. The other thing is you can pick up guns like a shotgun, though that feature started to be more streamlined. The level design is awesome though as are the bosses. My favorite level is actually the last one in that abandoned building, it looks creepy in a sense but there's a 3D feel to it with all the holes in the wall. The game also features a character that looks mighty similar to Hulk Hogan. I mean they named him "Hawk" but it's no denying that it is Hulk Hogan! Hawk and Hulk aren't that far apart lol... maybe Hawk is the japanese pronunciation of Hulk... Vendetta was far as I know either a spin-off or part 2 of Crime Fighters.

After just playing a little of it I like the feel of the gameplay. The graphics are pretty decent too.
