I finished SoR2 with 13(?) lives....

[Zubiac]

They only display your lives till 9, so I don't exactly know how many lives I had after finishing.
I think I lost 2 lives through the whole game but "earned" about 7.
This game is ridiculously easy. The only enemies which gave me "problems" were that flying jetman and the guy before the very last boss(who doesn't deserve that name at all). "Andore Junior" from Final Fight, a normal enemy, is 10 times harder than some bosses in SoR2.
Also it doesn't play as fluently...you know...as smoothly as Final Fight 1,2 or 3. When you smack up an opponent in FF it goes like "WOOM WHACK WOOM"...you kinda feel that you beat him up(especialy with Haggar hehe) but in SoR2 it's more a "whim whim whim". It's not that intensive IMO.
Don't get me wrong. SoR2 is a great game...especialy in multiplayer mode but IMO it has no chance against SNES/SFC brawlers like Final Fight 2 and 3, Iron Commando, Undercover Cops or Combatribes.

Final Fight I just find riciculously hard...
I managed to get to the level 4 boss the other day, but I doubt I'll get past it, mainly because you have to restart the levels.
I haven't finished SoR2 yet, but it's no easier than the original I don't think, but I don't mind it being easy because I'll replay it loads lie with SoR1.

I've beaten both SoR 1 & 2 and 2 is easier. The special moves are better in this game, unlike the crappy one in the original. Once you go through it a few times, you'll realize its easier than the original.

I don't mind anyway. I get so mad when playing Final Fight, almost broke my classic controller once...

I never could get into Final Fight years ago when I first played it.

@Zubiac Have you tried to finish SoR2 on Maniac yet? You get this difficulty setting after finishing Hard mode.

Final Fight on the Snes is just ridiculous. This game was meant to be played by two players and it gets unfair really quick. Besides the missing two player option they forgot to implement one stage completely. Imo the only "beatable" version is the one on the Mega CD.

I've done it on easy, I'll be moving onto the harder difficulties soon.

I beat FF on VC without ever using a continue. Level 4 boss is indeed a *****, I suggest just doing a spinning clothesline whenever he comes towards you and hope for the best. Be sure to have at least a few extra lives (2-3) when doing this as clotheslines drain your health. When he turns red and charges towards you time it right and punch him right before he punches you, then knock him down normally.

Yeah, Maniac mode is pretty sick! There's enemies galore!

No continues
You must be really good at it then, I can make it to level 3 without using one, then I probably get through 1 a level...
