As fans of the 'Streets of Rage' series that originally appeared on the SEGA megadrive/genesis, we always wanted to see streets of rage 4. But the waiting proved futile, and streets of rage 4 never came. That's why we tried to correct this mistake and fill the void by making the ultimate tribute to Streets of Rage:
Beats of Rage!!
Originally intended as nothing more than a fun little private project, Beats of Rage soon became a very popular game which was ported to many platforms (Linux, Playstaion2, DreamCast, XBox and will go to run at others). Senile Team strive to be your source for high-quality old-school games, graphics with character, well-chosen soundtracks and, most importantly, the solid gameplay we feel one can only find in the classic genres.
