| history | Crime Fighters [2-Player model] (c) 1989 Konami. Plenty of young & beautiful women are missing and the city's local kingpin is the main suspect. As a group of street vigilantes you must venture into the most dangerous zones of your city and destroy all street punks & criminals that are dumb enough to get in your way in order to rescue the girls! Features colorful graphics, a catchy soundtrack, some cool moves (such as striking downed enemies) and a good challenge. Like the idea of fighting to rescue a beautiful damsel in distress?, why not a huge bunch of 'em so its worth your time!!! :D - TECHNICAL - Game ID : GX821 Main CPU : KONAMI (@ 3 Mhz) Sound CPU : Z80 (@ 3.579545 Mhz) Sound Chips : YM2151 (@ 3.579545 Mhz), K007232 (@ 3.579545 Mhz) Screen orientation : Horizontal Video resolution : 304 x 224 pixels Screen refresh : 54.00 Hz Palette colors : 512 Players : 4 Control : 8-way joystick Buttons : 2 - TRIVIA - Released in July 1989. Also released as "Crime Fighters [4-Player model]". Some bosses' character design in this game seem to have been inspired by popular horror movies, this seems true for three bosses in particular : Stage 2 Boss : A parody of Jason Voorhees from 'Friday the 13th movie' series. Stage 4 Boss : A distant parody of Leatherface from 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' movie series. Stage 5 Boss : A parody of Freddy Krueger from 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' movie series. The dying pose that the Stage 7 boss does seems to have been inspired by the movie poster from the 1986 film Platoon. King Records released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (Konami Game Music Collection Vol.2 - KICA-1016) on 21/08/1990. - UPDATES - The US version is slightly different, it has the 'Winners Don't Use Drugs' screen. There are quite a few differences between the 4-Player version and the 2-Player versions of the same game : 4-PLAYER VERSION : * This is a 2-button game (punch & kick). * Character's energy is represented by a numerical hit point value which is always on countdown to zero. Additional hit points may be added by inserting more coins into each player's corresponding coin slot. * Characters can use a reversal kick which is automatically activated if an opponent is behind you as you press the kick button. This kick knocks down enemies (except bosses) with a single hit! * The gun has limited ammo, however it is possible to pick it up again if an enemy knocks it off your hand. Also each gunshot is as strong as 3 punches or kicks and knocks down most enemies in one shot. * You can play the extra stage (enemy boss revenge) more than once. 2-PLAYER VERSIONS : * Commonly seen as a 2-button game (punch & kick) but actually is a 3-button game (can be confirmed in the game's test mode). * Character's energy is represented by a life-bar which only decreases with enemy attacks. * There is a timer as well as a credit counter. * The 3rd button is a reversal attack, which works as another kick button since you can use a pretty effective 3-hit combo (back kick, back kick, roundhouse kick). However you can't use this button to kick downed opponents. * The gun has unlimited ammo, however you will lose it permanently if an enemy knocks it off your hand. Also the gun is now just as weak as a normal punch or kick and it takes 3 consecutive shots to knock down a normal enemy. * You can play the extra stage (enemy boss revenge) only once. - TIPS AND TRICKS - * Unlimited Credits : Successfully complete the entire game two consecutive times. - SERIES -
