"Your fist is the only thing you can really rely on in this bullshit world..."
Final Fight, one of Capcom's most overlooked franchises, finally gets a sequel
in Final Fight: Streetwise!  Prepare to take it to the streets once again, only
this time with a little more urban flavor.  In Final Fight Streetwise, you take
on the role of Cody's younger brother Kyle Travers and must find the reason
behind your brother's kidnapping and the sudden occurrence of a new street drug
known as "glow".  Along the way, you'll run into the former powerhouse mayor of
Metro City, Mike Hagger, and Cody's very popular friend, Guy, as well as a
bunch of other new and familiar faces.
This guide will give you a full walkthrough for story mode along with all the
side missions and pit fights found throughout the main game.  I will go into
detail with Arcade Mode as well, highlighting every move for each character
along with a few tips for advancing further in the stages.
As in my other walkthroughs I have stayed away from anything dealing with the
plot, but if you consider boss names a spoiler, then tread carefully.  Please
enjoy this FAQ and give me an email if you have any questions, comments, or if
you find anything that I missed.  Any comments, suggestions, questions, etc.
are always welcome.  Email me at berserker_kev@yahoo.com.  Also, if you find
any errors in this FAQ (I don't care how little of an error), then please email
me about it.

In order to save your game in Final Fight: Streetwise, you will need to quit
your current game and select the option to save when prompted.  You can only
keep one saved game at a time.  Make sure that you have just completed an

checkpoint for saving will be kept before or after a boss encounter or lengthy

|_|_|_|_|_|_|_|| Match Against Handsome Bob at 9:30! /
||------------------------------------/
== Fight Club ==
[PIT FIGHT 1 (Kyle's Hood)]
Use any short combo that suits you in order to knock Handsome Bob down.  Just
about any three hit combo will work well.  Activate Instinct mode while
attacking in order to take off more damage per hit.  While Bob is down on the
ground, stomp on him once with a strong attack then move away from him - he
will get up and try to punch you if you stay next to him.  Block his attacks at
just the right time and you will enter Counter Time, where the screen will slow
down for a second and allow you to counter him with a hard-hitting attack.
Press Strong Attack for a kick and press Light Attack for an elbow during the
Counter Time animation.
Purse = $200

|_|_|_|_|_|_|_|| Meet Cody at Barfly. /

CHECKPOINT!
Break the small crate right behind you for a First Aid Kit and go back inside
of Fight Club to find an Energy Bar to your left.  Now you should be back at
full health and your Instinct Bar should be full as well.  Walk up ahead and a
van will pull up then some thugs will try to jump you.  Simple combos should be
more than enough to fight them off, just don't let them crowd around you.
Break some of the wood against the side of the buildings for some Planks that
you can beat them down with.
Walk down the street ahead and talk to the hooker with the question mark over
her head for a side mission [A Kid's Wrong Path].
Barfly is across the street from the hooker.  Some thugs will attack as you
walk up to the door of Barfly.  One of them has a knife so try to disarm him
first.  If they all start to crowd around you, grab one of them and throw him
into the others.  Punch the soda machine a few times for a Capcola.  Enter Bar

After the cutscene a group of The Stiff's guards will ambush you and Cody.  For
this fight try to get a hold of a weapon no matter what weapon that may be.
There are plenty of stools lying around and there are some pool cues in the
back corners.  Many of the guards will have bats and knives with them so be
sure to knock them out of their hands.  Use throws often when the guards gang
up on you and stomp them with a strong attack when they hit the floor.

[PIT FIGHT #2 (Kyle's Hood)]
Locksmith is not much tougher than Handsome Bob was, but he will sometimes duck
your combos.  When he ducks he will always retaliate with a flip kick.  Be
prepared to block the flip kick at all times and he shouldn't be much of a
problem.  Like the first pit fight, Locksmith will try to hit you when he gets
up from a knockdown, only he will use a sweeping kick instead of a punch.  You
can really take advantage of his retaliating kick attack by grabbing him every
time he finishes the kick.  It will work every time!

[END PIT FIGHT #4 (Kyle's Hood)]
The warehouse that you need to go to is in the alley behind the Metro Diner.
The alley is also nearly directly across from the Porn Theater.  The warehouse
has a Blue Ball Video sign on the front and a "Keep Out!" sign as well.

|_|_|_|_|_|_|_|| Blue Ballers. I'll get that prick!                     /
||-------------------------------------------------------/
The first part of this battle will be a big match between you and several of
The blue ballers are basically just like the Stiff's guards but you will fight
a new enemy here - the big guys.  Make sure you watch out for the their rams.
They will always make a noise as they ram so listen for it while fighting other
enemies.  The Weasal will be operating a crane in the background during this
whole fight and will try to drop crates on you the whole time.  As the shadow
of the crates move over you they will fall immediately so be sure to move out
of the way.
Boss - The Weasel
After you have taken care of all of his guards the Weasel will bust through the
crates in a Spiked Forklift.  The fight looks quite dangerous, but this is much
easier than the last battle.  Keep running to the sides each time he tries to
ram you and he will bash through the crates and hit a barrel on the sides of
this area.  The forklift will stop when he hits a barrel so that is your cue to
attack him with a combo from the back.  When the red light on the forklift
lights up, run away from him since he will back up and run over you if you are
still behind him.  Get a few hits in each time he rams a barrel and you will
defeat him in no time.  Many items will be scattered around the area as he rams
more and more crates so be sure to grab a weapon to make the battle quicker.

will use Instinct moves a bit more this time.
[END PIT FIGHT #5 (Kyle's Hood)]
Your next destination is the Subway near the Porn Theater.  2-ill will be in
front of the Subway stairs.  Immediately after speaking to him, some thugs will
chase after 2-ill.  Chase after the thugs as they chase 2-ill into an alley
then let the beat down begin.  Be sure to use constant throws to throw one of
the thugs into a crowd of others when they all gang around 2-ill since they can
take him out rather quickly.  2-ill will attempt to fight them off, but he's
not much a fighter.  A cutscene will begin once you have taken out all of the
thugs.  Don't worry too much about picking up all the items during the battle,
they will still be there after the cutscene.

CHECKPOINT!
After exiting the subway, approach the guy with the black jacket further down
the road to the left for a side mission [Pier Trashcans].
You can't enter Hotel Bijou from the front entrance so you will need to go
around the left side to get to the back entrance.  Grab the shotgun off to the
right of the Hotel Bijou - you will have to go around the other end of the
fence.  On the left side of Hotel Bijou a group of Punx will ambush you.  They
are a bit more aggressive than other enemies you have fought and will even grab
you, so try to keep them from ganging around you with constant throws as much
as possible.
In order to gain access to the back of Hotel Bijou you will need to enter the
correct security code on the security access panel to unlock the door.  The
objective is to get all of the lights on with three button presses.
Press the buttons on the security access panel in the following order.

||----------------------------------------------------------/
Sneak by the guard and the dog up ahead and proceed into the courtyard.  You
will most likely give yourself away here since you will have to go past the
pacing guard.  Be sure to defeat the dogs first if the enemies catch site of
you.  Stomp the dogs with a strong attack and that will instantly take them
out.  Enter the backdoor of the hotel near the end of the courtyard.
== Hotel Lobby ==
CHECKPOINT!
Grab a chair from either side as you enter.  You need to go down the right
hall.  You may be able to sneak by the guards in the main hall but the pacing
guard down the right hall will most likely notice you.  The elevator is locked
so go down the hall and enter the last door on the left side to find a sleeping
guard and a key on the table to the right.  Either sneak past the guard or
fight him off and grab the ELEVATOR KEY.  Run back down the hall and use the
elevator.
== Floor 3 ==
The doors with the blue light up above them are the only doors that can be
opened.  Most of them contain health and money items.  Enter the room all the
way down the hall directly in front of the elevator.  Go through the room
(nevermind the girl) and exit through the back door.  Sneak by the first guard
then either sneak past the second guard or bust him with a chair on your way to
the catwalks outside the window.
== Floor 4 ==
As you walk down the hall you will notice a guard in a white suit standing by a
Capcola machine.  Wait for the guard further down the hall to turn his back
then grab the chair behind the guard in white and take him down.  You'll most
likely have to defeat the other guard as well, but try to do it in the same
hall with the Capcola machine so the others ahead will not hear you.  Walk down
the hall and turn right then enter the first door on the right.
A chair will be in the middle of the room and a guard will be sleeping across
from it - I don't know about you but hitting him with that chair just can't
escape my mind.  Walk through the doorway in the back then break the boards
barring the next doorway.  You'll alert some guards but there are only two.  Go
through the next door off to the side.  The door off to your immediate left
only has an energy bar and two women inside plus you'll most likely be seen by
the whole room of enemies if you go over to it.  Walk down the hall to the
right and defeat the pacing guard then enter the room on the left.
The room in front of the sleeping guard is locked and he has the key so defeat
him then to get the KEY TO ADJOINING ROOM and go through the door.  Exit
through the next door off to the right then run down the hall (no guards) and
go through the window to get to the catwalks outside.
== Floor 5 ==
Holy shit, it's one of those demons from Demon Knight!  Aim for the eyes!  Just
kidding, they're actually called glow heads.  These enemies can take off some
massive damage if you let them grab you so be careful when attacking.  Go
through the right door if you want a gun.  Destroy the table to find a handgun.
The glow head will attack if you get too close to him.  Go back out into the
hall and enter the room across from you.
Another glow head will attack inside the next room.  Hit the boards against the
wall and enter the room next door.  You'll have to take out at least one glow
head to exit the room so grab the chair to the side.  Destroy the table in
front of the door then go through the door.
Walk to the right side first and defeat the glow head.  You will find a shotgun
to the right of him.  Go back the way you came and walk down the hall with many
glow heads.  It is possible to get past the majority of them without them
attacking you but the ones further down the hall will likely attack.  Don't be
afraid to use the shotgun, you'll get another one in just a bit.  Enter the
room at the end of the hall.
Fight off the glow heads in the next room and destroy the table blocking the
exit.  Yet another shotgun is off to the right.  You might as well defeat the
sleeping guard against the wall since you will have to fight the others in the
next room anyway.  One of the guards will hold the key to the next door in the
room ahead.  Grab the KEY TO ADJOINING ROOM and enter the next door.  Destroy
the table next to the bed to reveal plenty of money pickups.  The glow head
will get up as you try to enter the room so you can either run or fight him -
it's only one though, so fight!  Two more glow heads will be waiting down the
hall.  Exit through the window to get to the next floor.
== Penthouse Floor ==
Ah, finally we've reached the top!  The guard up ahead is going to sick four
attack dogs on you so be ready to squash them with the strong attack button.
If the guard starts to fire his handgun, rush toward him and knock him down
then continue defeating the dogs.  The penthouse door at the end is locked so
you will need to go through the door across from it.  Use the security access
panel to the side of the door in order to gain entry.
Press the buttons on the security access panel in the following order.

A cutscene will take place afterward and you will forced to fight Devin "The
Stiff".
CHECKPOINT!
Boss - Devin "The Stiff"
Stiff is no pushover, that's for sure.  You will need to take cover behind any
of the four pillars found around the room often.  He will mainly shoot you from
a distance or run toward you while shooting then try to kick you.  He has to
reload after every sixth shot so it is best to count his shots and try to
attack him when he only has about one or two bullets left so you will most
likely catch him while he is reloading.  Each time you knock him down he will
most likely leave a handgun for you.  The best way to fight him is to hit him
then grab him while he is slightly stunned and knee him with the strong attack
button.  You can shoot him with the handgun then grab him or punch him then
grab him.  Be sure to stomp on him with the strong attack button while he is on
the ground to take some extra damage.  As usual, he will attack once he gets
up.  He will constantly dodge your attacks so you will have to take swings at
him often, but run away if he starts to shoot.  If you can corner him with
strong attacks then you might be able to trap him.
After you defeat him in his office, a cutscene will start then you will have to
fight the Stiff yet again on the rooftop.  This time there are no guns.  Use
constant strong attacks and eventually you will catch him off guard while he
dodges around the area.  Try to grab him and knee him in the middle of the
combo if you think he might dodge out of the way near the end.  DO NOT try to
hit him on the ground after a normal knockdown - he will always kick you before
he gets up.  When you knock him down be sure to stand near him but not right
next to him and wait for the kick.  Directly after the kick, grab him and knee
him in the chest.  You can sometimes hit him on the ground directly after a
grab, but that is the only time.  He will not always do the kick after you
knock him down so you can't always count on that free grab.  He's very
aggressive so counters will definitely help you out during this fight.
