Streets Of Rage Remake v5 on PC with a friend. An independent program team called BomberGames spent eight years on this remake of the Streets of Rage series. Streets of Range Remake is a freeware game; it contains almost all characters, enemies, stages and features from the three original games (all enhanced), as well as brand-new features (branching route selection, new moves, new enemies, new stages, new game modes, secrets and cheats to unlock), a remixed soundtrack, and a customizable game engine. Do note that the game itself was taken down, but mirrors can easily be found with a bit of searching. It's a pretty fun beat 'em up game. The only downsides I can think of is the lack of online-coop, and the motorbike and jetski stages are kind of annoying. However, it's still a great game to play, especially if you have a friend with you. (You don't need a friend, but games are always more fun with them, no?)
