Product Information
Gekido: Urban Fighters is a side-scrolling, 3D beat-'em-up in the vein of Final Fight and Streets of Rage for up to four players. Corruption and criminal behavior is at an all-time high in New Tokyo where a girl named Angela has been kidnapped. Her parents have hired a detective named Travis to investigate a gang run by the notorious crime boss Kintaro; some say the gang is involved with the darker side of life, namely Hell. Knowing how difficult the mission is, the detective will need all the assistance he can get.<br><br>Joining Travis on his brutal and bloody quest is an old friend named Michelle, a martial arts mentor known as Ushi, and Tetsuo who is Ushi's student. Each fighter handles differently; whereas Travis is the well-balanced brawler, Michelle excels in speed but lacks in power. Each character also has his and her own combinations and special rage attacks as well. In addition to the four selectable characters, there are hidden fighters to unlock with extended gameplay.<br><br>Gekido features a few gameplay options including the Urban Fighters (the story mode), Arena Battle, Shadow Fighter, Street Gang Battle, Team Battle, and Survival modes. Arena Battle is a tournament based multiplayer mode against up to three human players. The idea is to smash your opponents into a bloody pulp using your fists and various weapons. Other gameplay modes such as Shadow Fighter, Street Gang Battle, Team Battle, and Survivor must be unlocked.<br><br>Regardless of the gameplay option you've chosen, you'll find a plethora of weapons laying around including machine and hand guns, rifles, flamethrowers, hand grenades, dynamite sticks, knives, and lead pipes. You'll use these on a wide variety of enemies ranging from normal street thugs and a giant ape-man to a vicious demon hell-bent on your destruction.Product Identifiers
