Burning Fight



Burning Fight is an arcade game created by SNK in 1991 for the Neo Geo MVS system. This game is a beat 'em up, probably an attempt to make some cash using Capcom's Final Fight and Sega's Streets of Rage premises. Three years after its release in arcades and the Neo Geo, it was released in the Neo Geo CD as the only home version of this game. The producer of this game is Eikichi Kawasaki, one of the SNK founders and the man behind various famous SNK games, like Fatal Fury and Samurai Shodown series.

Story
Duke and Billy, two popular and renowned New York City Police detectives, are hot on the trail of a dangerous Japanese crime syndicate. Their investigation has led them to the mean streets of Japan where they meet a police officer and martial arts expert named Ryu. Ryu agrees to join the NYPD detectives as they track down the crime syndicate bosses and end their reign of terror once and for all.

Gameplay
Basically this game uses the same elements that makes Final Fight famous, such as the balance between characters, grabbing weapons or things in the ground to make more damage to the opponents and breaking things like phone booths and street signs along the way. But also added some new elements, like mini-stages, where you have to defeat some enemies to gain some prizes, all in 10-15 seconds.
