  I worked as a bouncer as a favor to a friend one time and was surprised at the amount of mechs and ninjas i had to deal with.  Had it not been for this game i might have died that night.

  A main villain lamenting the amount of humiliation they've been through then revealing they've been wearing denim overalls this entire time is quite frankly the best example of "show, don't tell" I can imagine.

  Remember that time Sora from Kingdom Hearts teamed up with Zell from FFVIII and a tatted up Amon from Escaflowne, and they fought to rescue cyborg Cecillia from Wild Arms from the clutches of her brother, Sydney from Vagrant Story? And then they finally answered everyone's questions about where Rinoa was in Kingdom Hearts by turning her into a cat and killing her. Damn, that was nuts.

  Seeing the badass heros get slightly nudged and immediately faceplate onto the ground will never get old. Ragdoll physics are a blessing.

  I’m so glad you mentioned the Sora / Sion relation. As a kid I was convinced that Kingdom Hearts and Bouncer were somehow either a prequel or a sequel based on the design of Sion.

  I remember my friends and I calling Volt's charge attack the "random act of violence" because of how he could sometimes completely change direction mid charge and belt someone else in the face unexpectedly. We had so much fun with this game, hearing Volt's EEEEYEH really takes me back

  I used to work as a bouncer. This is exactly how it was. /sigh Brings back memories.

  I just remember my cousin and I beating the game and unlocking all the characters to play the local brawl-style fighting multiplayer with. There was a level with a staircase and we would fight at the top floor just to throw each other down the stairs and crack up at the ragdoll effects haha

  One thing I remember best from the game is after you defeat Mugetsu the final time he gets killed by engine fire from the platform ship thing your characters were on. If you played Kou in that segment he'll comment, "Incineration, huh? Better get used to that for where you're going." I got to admit that I liked that line.

  A fun bit of trivia is that Pence from the Kingdom Hearts series has a Dog Street shirt as a reference to this game.

  I never knew how difficult being a bouncer truly was, this game has opened my eyes

  You're an absolute hero for tallying up the load time, cutscene time, and gameplay time. As a kid it was painfully obvious how little time you spend actually playing, but it's fun to see some actual numbers.
