I rented many games solely based on their covers, only to be mildly disappointed when I got home. (lemmy.world)

I had Bad Street Brawler for the NES and it's so bad, it's funny. Even back in the day.... fighting midgets, dogs, and circus strongmen, trying to get to the dumpster at the end of the level, and with 2-player coop to boot

I somehow missed Bad Street Brawler and went for Bad Dudes because I played that one at the arcade. Wasn't nearly as good as the arcade version though.

Aka. Bop'n'Rumble for Commodore 64.

It wasn't all bad. The gameplay was alright.

It was Street Hassle as well I think.

Only ever saw a few screenshots in a ZX Spectrum magazine, but it certainly has a memorable art style.
