If you read the description, you'll see that the original composer for the Streets of Rage soundtrack composed the soundtrack for Project X Zone 2. That's why the soundtrack to the game has that Sega Genesis vibe.
1:00 What I love the most is how they didn't change a THING for this part. It's so perfectly Genesis and the original song, even they knew it was the BEST. I must have held on to this area for like 10 minutes just listening to this song on loop when it appeared.
streets of rage has earned a very special place in my heart, I really loved his style of play his characters his music is incredible everything apart from the fact that Axel is my favorite character God that man if it is powerful to play this is one of the best decisions I have made in my life
These games are probably the most underrated rpgs I can think of, if you claim to love capcom, Sega and a ton of the rest of old school developers you should be demanding this game on switch and any new ones at that. The characters and love of their lore is second to none. If a console idea of this hit it should break the internet.
Well... for the first time in my life I've begin to play Project X Zone 2 a few weeks ago (I've never searched any info of this game in particular). I was playing normaly when I saw Axel appear and the classic Go Straight started to play...I was like... OH-MY-FRIGGING-GOD!! And didn't skipped any dialog for a few minutes just to keep listening to this master piece haha. Sry, I'm old.
I first got a dreamcast when I was 10 years old. I'm 25 now but Streets of Rage 2 (on the sega smash disc) is still one of my all time favorite games to play. Without fail it always gets the party started
Never gonna happen. KOF XIII's sprites were so labor-intensive it nearly killed SNKP. Even though Sega's certainly a bigger company, I'd doubt that they'd want to just smash their faces against that kind of wall either. If there EVER is a new SoR, I'd bet it'd be more akin to something like Double Dragon Neon.
It wasn't Labor Intensive as much as it was just fucking Dumb. TRACING OVER 3D Models SOUNDS Cool. Until you realized you paid for BOTH 3D Modelling AND 2D Sprite Work, Doubling game cost. GGXRD had the right idea with 3D Models and combining it with Animation Cels.
Lei Wulong: FLEEZE! Oh wait, aren't you the fugitive Cody from Metro City!? Axel: it's okay, Lei. He rectified his ways. Now he is the Mayor Cody Travers. Cody: yeah, yeah, past is gone, bla bla bla. What about we show these guys some punishment by fist? My security policy, of course.
you know what would have been amazing having Cody and Axel as a pair both of them are essentially the same shit the only difference is that Cody actually went rogue
+ZelosWilder , oddly enough, Cody and Guy were in Project X Zone 1. However, with that being said, the Street Fighter and Final Fight universes actually coexist in the same realm.
+Ibuki Mioda , No, it was Cody and Guy that was in that game. Haggar is actually in Marvel Vs. Capcom 3/Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3...or was I thinking of Tekken x Street Fighter?
+RafaelDB64 I remember AlphaOmegaSin talking in a video about how Sega should give Sonic a break and go back to some of their other franchises and he mentioned SOR in it. Sega has just as big of IP catalog as Nintendo and yet and they do nothing with their other franchises that have been on the shelf collecting dust for years. The only games Sega is putting out is Sonic and Phantasy Star. Sonic is their golden boy and they still put out shitty or mediocre games. I would love a new SOR, or a new Golden Axe which I think the character Gilius Thunderhead should have been in Project X Zone 2, but anyway Sega really should bring some of their great franchises that have been long forgotten to the modern era of gaming.
This song defines my childhood and why SOR 2 was the best sidescrolling game ever when I was younger and I got this for my birthday plugged in the cartridge yes old school 😂 and chose Axel this theme came on and I was woah this song is awesome and you knew shit was gonna go down for a fight. I love this remake of this legendary theme. I hope they can port someday streets of rage remake to consoles
I remember playing SoR 2 on the Sega Genesis Collection and LOVING this song when I played the game. I just kept jamming to it. Looking forward to the sequel. I really should finish Project X Zone 1. I'm like 75 percent done with the game.
SoR made it into the top 10 most wanted SEGA comebacks. Considering the option wasn't available by default, I consider the initiative as successful. :)
I end up using Axel more then some pair units themselves...drain half the enemy HP bar and then let Axel do the rest...lots of combos and easy to critical...plus A rank damage= dead monster
Hell YEA!!! they should do that just like they did with Rash from battletoads being a playable character in Killer Instinct. That would be dope but as of right now well Idk anymore since Crapcom is being such a crap with their games lately.

Wow, it almost feels like they had an excuse to go directly to the source XD
"Hey Yuzo, you feel like coming ba-"
"FUCK YES I DO"
That explains why I love the soundtrack
Indeed
Yuzo explicitly only composed the opening and ending songs. It's never actually said if eh composed the entire game himself.
Who could do Yuzo Koshiro music better than Yuzo Koshiro himself?
Nobody
Someone can. His name is Yuzo Koshiro.
@@user-ki2ys1dh1l that is very true but who can do it even better, THE KOSHIRO TRIO! All three of himself working together makes a great team
@@user-nk7oo7ni9s WHOO BETTA THAN KANYON?!
The fact that they did 10000% respect and pulled Yuzo to do this rendition makes it all the better
This is so 90's
yuzo koshiro
An it's soo good.
oh hell yeah
Really? I would have guessed 1930's
GRAND UPPAH !!
+Jugdjay Tú si sabes. :D

Yo
but 0:00 feels so different i mean it could just be a remix with old sounds but aye its cool
Perfection doesn't need to be fucked with
@@erinluoma4977 It's the same musician who remixed it so that was definitely intentional
The best song in the entire saga.
I've listened to remixes of Go Straight on RUclips and SoRR and tons of other places for years and years. This is the only remix that nails it
+David Curry well, it's been arranged by Koshiro himself :D
Absolutely
David Curry Actually i think Axel and cody(FF) Version. Would be more fitting
I love the base
Even Go Straight II can't measure up and they coexisted. Lol
I modded this into Ultra Street Fighter IV as the Training Stage BGM and now it plays everytime i go training.
*Best decision ever*
Huh, it kinda fits.
GO STRAIGHT!
Well done
Koshiro somehow improved perfection.
This song is too darn good, time to hit the streets, grand uppah

@@iceweb38 Now we have SOR 4. Epic.
If Project x Zone 3 becomes a thing who'd wanna see Axel and Mike Haggar (the MANLIEST mayor to ever walk the earth) as a pair unit?
Little Mac as a Solo would totally complete the round-up.
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to be Axel and Cody? lol
Mike haggar would pair up with King or zangief I think....Axel would end up with Blaze for sure
Or they could take Bruno "Bruce Willis" Delinger from the first PXZ and pair him with Axel. Wait, no!
Blaze, pls
streets of rage has earned a very special place in my heart, I really loved his style of play his characters his music is incredible everything apart from the fact that Axel is my favorite character God that man if it is powerful to play this is one of the best decisions I have made in my life
streets of rage 4 was just announced
Yep, something to be hyped about.
SO HYPE LET'S GO
YEEEEEEAH
Still no news, but boy am I still hype.
WAIT WHAT WHEN
Damn, this is actually the best version I've heard of this song.
couldn't agree more with you my friend
Guys… I think I’m in love with this song.
1:14 gives that perfect timing of pure beats so the melody don't overdo all the music... amazing mix. just amazing.
god damn this hits the spot
Love this version, the vibes from the OG are there but the mix added some cool effects to make it modern, cool. Yuzo Koshiro it's the best ❤

When an epic song becomes even more epic. Yuzo Koshiro is a f*cking god!
Axel Stone for Smash
Why because he would have been the ultimate surprise character
Blaze Fielding for Smash 64.
It's kind of like Yuzo did a Maximum Tune version of Go Straight. I can imagine this playing in one of the menus.
One of the best intro songs.
if the day comes and we get a project X zone 3. I would like to see Axel paired with Cody as a team.

It's time to GRAND UPPAH for the 4th time!!
Masterpiece song hell yeah !
This seriously needs more fucking views. What a glorious remix!
+SavenForever I'm not the first to upload it on the web, just glad to share it though coz it IS a glorious remix :)
This needs more views too.
+SavenForever You're here too holy shit you guys are alive!
Fun fact, the original composer for the Streets of Rage series is the composer for Project X Zone 2.
The best part about this remix is that it's just barely changed because it's already SO. GAWD DAMN. GOOD.
When you're walking the streets of Portland.
A master never fights, he can teach why no one messes with a master..not even masters. I love you, I'm cray cray in a fun wayyawa
I have huge nostalgia for the original, but I have to say... I think this might be better. Hats off to whoever made this
The composer for SOR composed the PXZ2 OST. So....either or, it's the same guy, Yuzo Kushiro.
Was hoping both Blaze and Axel would make it in as a pair but this is better then nothing. Love this remix!

I wish Sega didn't let the series die... I'm down for a Streets of Rage REBIRTH or another entry with KOF 13 sprite animation

you could also try out Streets of Rage Remake .

News Just in!!
Thank you this goes well shadowboxing
Lei Wulong: FLEEZE! Oh wait, aren't you the fugitive Cody from Metro City!?
Axel: it's okay, Lei. He rectified his ways. Now he is the Mayor Cody Travers.
Cody: yeah, yeah, past is gone, bla bla bla. What about we show these guys some punishment by fist? My security policy, of course.
I'm a fashion designer. When I start doing the run way stuff I'm gonna have a whole late 80s early 90s vibe and play this at every show
There must be bandanas. Sashes. Super long weighted bandanas. Artfully ripped and frayed tee shirts. Jeans. DayGlo. Puffy vests and jackets.
@@Zaximillian I'm bringing it all back (:
Let's groove, SoR is coming back baby!! In the form of SoR 4
you know what would have been amazing having Cody and Axel as a pair both of them are essentially the same shit the only difference is that Cody actually went rogue
+ZelosWilder , oddly enough, Cody and Guy were in Project X Zone 1. However, with that being said, the Street Fighter and Final Fight universes actually coexist in the same realm.
+Pax Humana where? haggar was in NxC but i dont recall guy and cody being playable in PxZ1
Actually, Haggar and Guy were the ones in Namco X Capcom.
Guy was a team unit with Ginzu/Shou. Haggar, AFAIK, was a solo unit.
+Ibuki Mioda , No, it was Cody and Guy that was in that game. Haggar is actually in Marvel Vs. Capcom 3/Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3...or was I thinking of Tekken x Street Fighter?
Pax Humana no, haggar was in Namco vs Capcom,
Imagine axel stone has the next dlc character in smash
even Bandai Namco remembers SoR and SEGA not :P

Awesome! i love this song. Its as good as the original.
DJ TECHNORCH's "Runnning Cost" includes this song in such a glorious way. Now I can understand his references!
The party got reinvigorated!
Dude where the fuck have I BEEN?!! So glad I was brought up in the 90's!!!! Oh the fun times!!!!!! I embrace it fully!!!!!

*"GRAND UPPA!"*
And all was history.
Love this!
after all this year I found it! OMG!! my life is complete!!
Definetly a Go Straight remix that sounds not from the limited bit sound but preserves the original sound! It's amazing!
WOAHHHHHHHHH yea this is a banger. Definitely my favorite "Go Straight" Remix yet.
Awesome 👌 Streets of Rage 2 is my all time favourite brawlers.
I absolutely lost it when this kicked in on the game wasn't expecting it at all 😂 ♥ Yuzo, still the best.
THEY DID IT. SOMEONE FINALLY VAGUELY ACKNOWLEDGED THIS SERIES EXISTENCE BESIDES PORTING THE OLD GAMES AND TAKING DOWN FAN GAMES!!!!
What do you think about Street of Rage 4?
I miss the old Sega.
*_“Dragon Smash”_*

best remix ever.
iconic
OMG I just found this thanks to a comment from another video!!! SO GLAD I DID!!
GRAND UPPER!!!! ➡️➡️🤜🔥🔥🔥🔥 Axel, Ryu, Ken, Leon, Morrigan are the best in this Crossover game 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
We can all say ''Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless)'' was the main inspiration for Yuzo Koshiro's Go Straight.
I just ate an apple off the street
BEST ARRANGEMENT BY UNCLE YUZO KOSHIRO
This sound make me still playing videogames ❤️
same here my friend
Capcom.... SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
+James McLean You're wrong, this is all up to SEGA, which has been neglecting SoR for far too long.
+iceweb38 agreed

neueziel85 The only Solo character that hits the enemy in a cross hit. Smh. They changed it so that the second game, the cross hit is useless.
Axel Stone will be perfect for Street Fighter V dlc 👏👏👏👏👏 Capcom make it happen 👍👍👍👍👍
+901hardsouth Dont do that to SoR... they already absorbed Final Fight.
+basslv3 considering that Final Fight actually takes place within the SF universe.....
At no point was it stated or implied that it was not.
Hell YEA!!! they should do that just like they did with Rash from battletoads being a playable character in Killer Instinct. That would be dope but as of right now well Idk anymore since Crapcom is being such a crap with their games lately.

Great work out music
AAAAaaaaa that M1 @ 1:00 is legit
Oh hey! They used the Remake V5 Version. This is Awesome. ^^
DAT DROP ON 0:30 MY GOD
Damn this mix is amazing.
im really feeling it
Well I'll be first on saying it...we can GRAND UPPAH again rght now...thanks Sega and mostly..thanks DotEmu
Seeing Axel before the beard and the grunch feels weird lol
I love this :)
Be coo if this ends up the 2nd

The start sounds like FVN!
k who tf asked
@@que.1837 dude just saying...
@@que.1837 dont need to be angry :/
Makes me wonder if they got inspired by it but this is a video game sound track so it is unlikely.
I hope Streets of Rage will bring back for sure maybe .?
It's finally happened

... Sega should bring this back immediately!
Amazing stuff here
Axel: GO STRAIGHT !
Please let this track be on the Streets of Rage 4 game, this is lit🔥!!
Incredible
The best remastered
Mr.koshiro and Mr.Kawashima did a great job
Streets of Rage 4 is here!
Straight out of a early 90's rave
MAN OH MY ARCEUS!! I need to play that game SO BAD!!
Go Straight for me is the theme of Jack, the knife punk...
There are elements of the Genesis sound bits in there. Probably my favorite rendition of this hit. :)
Dude this is straight up rave music wow
This is way better than any of the fan remixes.
