--INTRODUCTION-------------------------------------------------------------
For those who may not know, Final Fight 2 is the second rate, extremely
lesser sequel to original 1989 Capcom classic, Final Fight. We once
again rejoin Haggar and his new buddies to beat the crap out of the Mad
Gear gang. This newer game features one more character and two player
simultaneous play, which the original SNES port did not have. It was
released exclusively for the SNES. While not one of my favorite games
FF2 is still worth a play once and a while.
--THE STORY----------------------------------------------------------------
Years ago, the Mayor of Metro City, Mike Haggar, with the help of his
friends Cody and Guy, saved the city and his daughter Jessica from the
clutches of the Mad Gear gang. Once again peace and harmony returned to the
city. With Cody gone on vacation on his girlfriend Jessica and Guy gone off
to Japan to train, Haggar went back to running the city full time. Little did
he know that the Mad Gear gang was reforming.
Seeking to gain dominance over not just Metro City, but the world, the
resurgent Mad Gear gang kidnap Guy's fiancee Rena and her father and Guy's
master Genryusai. Maki, Rena's younger sister seeks out Haggar's help and
with Haggar's boarder Carlo's help, the three set out to destroy the Mad Gear
once and for all.
--CHARACTER GUIDE----------------------------------------------------------->

==Notes====================================================

============================================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------------->
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maki
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: 20
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 114 lbs.
Hobby: Street Fighting
Bio: A childhood friend of Guy's and the little sister of Rena, she hopes
to be a great street fighter someday. She is skilled in the art of ninjitsu,
having been taught by her father Genryusai. Not a violent person by nature,
she is foreced to use her ninjitsu skills when her family is kidnapped by
the Mad Gear.
Standing Combo: Two jabs, a cross, an elbow, finished with a jump kick.
Moves
=====
SUPER MOVE:
Handstand Kick -- Attack+Jump
SPECIAL MOVE:
Off The Wall Kick -- Jump towards wall. When you hit the wall, press the jump
button again.
Flying Elbow --> Jump, Down+attack
Jump Kick --> Jump, Attack
Flying Kick --> Jump, press left or right on the pad, then attack
Knee Bash --> Grab, Attack repeatedly
Over The Shoulder Throw --> Grab, press left or right on the pad then attack
Tips
====
Maki is fast, but not very strong. Use her quickness to your advantage.
The standing combo is really useful for knocking opponents down in quick
fashion. Keep enemies at a safe distance with the jump kick, and you'll
be fine. Try not to grab the bigger, stronger opponents, as they'll be
sure to do major damage. A good balance between the standing combo and jump
kicks will be enough to clear a crowd of enemies. The jumping elbow is nearly
useless, but can be used to set up the standing combo or some grab moves.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mike Haggar
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: 46
Height: 6'10"
Weight: 280 lbs.
Hobby: Street Fighting
Bio: Former champion Street Fighter and current mayor of Metro City, Haggar
rescued his daughter from the Mad Gear gang.

SPECIAL MOVE:
Spinning Piledriver -- Grab, Jump, Attack
Flying Body Press --> Jump, then press down+attack
Drop Kick --> Jump, then press attack
Headbutt --> Grab, attack repeatedly
Backdrop Suplex --> Grab, left/right, attack
Tips
====
Haggar is powerful, but extremely slow. Playing Haggar, you should
concetrate on using the Spinning Piledriver to clear out enemies. It's fast
and knocks down all the enemies in the vicinity. Don't use his suplex in a
crowd; it will open you up to attacks. Keep enemies away using the dropkick
and use the piledriver to quickly clear the screen. Don't try to grab the
Atlases, they'll bearhug you for major damage. Only use your combo when your
enemies are on one side of the screen, otherwise enemies will may you pay
from behind.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Carlos Miyamoto
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: ?
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 200 lbs.
Hobby: Sword Collecting

Knee Bash --> Grab, attack repeatedly
Throw --> Grab, press left or right on the pad then attack
Tips
====
Carlos has a good balance of power and speed. The standing combo is a quick
way to knockdown enemies. Combine it with the throw to keep the enemies down
and on one side.
--ENEMIES-----------------------------------------------------------------
There are two types of baddies: cannon fodder and the level bosses. The
former populate levels and easier to defeat. Bosses, however, are not as
easy to beat.
===========================================================================
-> Cannon Fodder
Bull/Elias -- Short, hunched over guys. Beware of their uh.. dangerous shin
kick.
Schot/Jack -- Punks in tanktops. Easy enough to kill.
Mark/Mic -- Short punks with one punch. Don't trouble yourself too much and
use your standing combo to get rid of them fast.
Andores -- A family of big, tall badasses. Beware of their grab attacks and
charge. Keeping them on the ground is the key.
Elick -- Fat dude with electrodes. Beware his electric charge. Try keeping
him on the ground with jumping attacks. He is also very susceptible to grab
attacks.
Elijah/Eliot -- Tall lanky punks with weapons. They tend to kick. Get them
on the same side as the other baddies using throws and use your standing
combo to beat them to a pulp.
Atlas/Jony -- These short, muscle-bound guys are way too friendly. Get close
to them and they'll give you their bear hug of doom, which takes off lots
of energy. Keep your distance and attack with caution. They block, so try
to use jumping attacks to defeat them.
Leon/Robert -- Tall guys with weapons. Beware of their flying attacks. They
replace the female gang members in the Japanese version (Mary and Eliza)
-> Bosses
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Won Won
Height: 7'4"
Weight: 450 lbs.
Location: Hong Kong
Former Chinese chef, now a Mad Gear cronie. Beware his blades of doom.
Tips
====
Defeat his cronies first, then concentrate on him. Use some knee attacks,
then a throw to do major damage on him. If he's out of grab distance, combo
him. Beware his flying leg drop attack.
===========================================================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Freddie
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 408 lbs.
Location: France
A former Navy Seal, Freddie was discharged after he punched out one of his
superiors. He is now a mercenary hired by the Mad Gear to head their
terrorism unit.
Tips
====
This guy mainly resorts to a lame charging attack that does WAY more
damage than it should. Defeat his cronies and keep him down with a jumping
attack while you're at it. When he's the only one left, keep a safe
distance away and wait him to charge you. When he's in distance, combo him.
Repeat the process until he's down for the count.
===========================================================================
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bratken
Height: 6'7"
Weight: 434 lbs.
Location: Holland
A psychotic overgrown boy, the Frankenstein's monster-like Bratken was
bribed to join the gang with a room full of toys. Now he's bored and he
wants to play with his newfound toy: you.
Tips
====
Of course, you should concentrate upon eliminating his cronies and keeping
him down before you actually concentrate on Bratken himself. He mainly
resorts to some lame jump kick/stomp thing, which he telgraphs. Anticipate
where he's going to land and grab him. Use your knee bash/headbutt two
times then a throw. If you're Haggar, use the piledriver after two head
butts for huge damage. He sometimes using a lame running elbow too. Keep
approaching him from the top or bottom of the screen and grabbing him then
using the aforementioned strategy, and he's toast.
===========================================================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Phillipe
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 148 lbs.
Location: England
A depraved individual, this circus clown helps the Mad Gear smuggle illegal
items through the circus. Beware his cane attack.
Tips
----
Keep your distance from this psycho and use your combo as well as jumping
attacks to send him back to the circus for good.
============================================================================
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rolent
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 187 lbs.
This zealous, fanatical militant returns from the first final Fight to wreak
more havoc. Beware his grenade and staff attacks.
Tips
----
Rolent's main attack is a jump off the railing on the rooftop into a jump
kick. Avoid this and hit him with your combo. Also watch for his off the
wall jumpkick. You can avoid this by walking to the opposite wall. Keep
hitting him with your combo after his jump kick off the railing, until his
meter turns yellow... he'll begin throwing grenades. Now jump away from the
grenades and use jump attacks until he's down.
=============================================================================
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Retu
Height: ?
Weight: ?
The leader of the Mad Gear, Retu is a huge force to be reckoned with. Beware
his standing spin kick.
==============================================================================

damage.

- Keep your opponents on one side of the screen by using your throws. They
are easier to deal with this way.
