This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

Final Fight: Streetwise was a well-intentioned but ill-designed attempt to restart the Final Fight franchise that was ultimately doomed by executive meddling, which led to Capcom Studio 8 being shut down. And it contains enough cursing to make you think the writers were sailors...

(Note that this version uses the same assets as its PS2 counterpart, so some unused content is present in both.)

Uncompiled Source Code

The file located at PSXDATA\Test\sndids.h on the disc is a C++ header file that was used to define the sound effects and voice samples used in the game. Some code samples:

#ifndef _SNDIDS_H_

//This file is autogenerated based on the bank names in config\banknames.txt
//and the data in o:\sound\deliveries

Unused Videos

The PSXData\Test folder contains two unused files:

The first, trailer.sfd, is an early E3 promo for the game which contains footage from various stages in development, and very different-sounding Kyle and Cody voice actors.

The second is a duplicate of video2.sfd, called video4.sfd. The video is What Drives the Weak, performed by Shadows Fall. Strangely, text inside the game's executable file mentions four bonus FMVs, but only three are available in the bonus section.

Unused Voice Clips

The main sound archive (PSXDATA\SOUND\DIALOG.ADS) contains all gameplay voice clips and sound effects that play during the game. It also contains some early voice clips for Kyle Travers:

	Early	Final
Ah, a key!
Ah... maybe if I had a key...
Ah, feelin' better already!
Aha, found it!
Aww yeah!
CASH!
Dammit!
Don't mind if I do!
Feelin' better already!
I can use this!
I'll take that!
Money.
Shit, it's locked!
This should help!
