I gotta be honest, SOR Remake is my favorite Beat Em Up of all time, official or unofficial. The amount of love and detail put into this game is incredible. The amount of playable characters, different story paths, stages, enemies, incredible remixed music, etc. It's like a perfect combination of all 3 SOR games, AND THEN SOME. It's a damn shame Sega was too full of themselves to let them release it legally, they could have EASILY partnered with them and released the game and made a ton of money from it. This could have easily been an "anniversary celebration" type game for the series. Ahh well...at least i can still play it whenever i want, just would have been cool to see it get officially released and had the creators get some kind of appreciation for all of their hard work.

Thank you! And y’know the sad thing is before bomber games started the project they asked sega and sega gave them the go ahead.Then after 8 long years it’s finally released,and then just 1 week later sega changed their mind and asked them to shut it down.If somethings way better than the genesis counterparts,and sega failed multiple times to make a sor4 for the dreamcast and others you would think they’d hire them like what they did for sonic mania.they could’ve helped legalize it.SORR is literally the flawless,It’s basically the SOR version of sonic mania.The new sor4 looks good for now like at sor2 level of good maybe a bit better. It would’ve been higher to possibly come close to sorr with the reveal of the new star power,deva and shiva but when they made only cherry have the ability to run(I’m sure that’s what’s going on since axel and blaze have’nt shown to be able to run yet and I refuse to believe the players playing sor4 are just dumb to not use run as any other character)for me they dropped the ball.

Julio Cesar nah... they were butt hurt over the lack of getting their consent first. That's REALLY bad form form and an extreme broach of etiquette in Japan. That's why they refused to work with them on an official release, despite Bomber Games' repeated attempts over the years. They've known about it for years before its release. However they waited for its final version to be released to shut it down. To me it sounds like they did what they were legally obligated to do... but made sure they were able to finish and release it first before dropping the hammer, instead of killing it before they were done.

I know I'm late to the party, as I've only found this video now, but I wanted to say thank you man for this very positive review. I was glad to be part of that awesome project from early on. Looking back at it now, I'm very proud of what we accomplished. Bomberlink dedicated most of his free time into making the fans' dream a reality with the help of his team. It's a game made by fans for the fans, and I think people could feel it as it got an enthusiastic reception, so much that even today with an official SOR4 being out, quite many gamers still consider SORR superior :D It started as a small project, made just for fun, and it went way beyond what we planned and expected, as we put in it everything we liked and missed about the original games, as well as features we would have wanted to see in a sequel that never was. It ended up becoming kind of what a trilogy megamix would have looked like on the Saturn. Finally, kudos for displaying our names in the ending credits. It's still weird to me to see my name in a popular, if unofficial, video game :)

I am so glad that you did this video. This game is crazy good and I was pretty blown away by it. I have been hoping one of the retro channels would cover this just to give the devs the praise they deserve. Quite honestly I don't Sega themselves could have done this because they would have tried to go 3d and messed it up. Only true fans with passion for the originals could recreate it so well. The craziest thing of all is the music, you expect that people would do a decent job copying the graphics but what they did with the music is utterly amazing. I hope the guys that created this, see this video and read this comment. Its a complete master piece. Sadly Sega did the big business thing which I understand, but if there are any 90's Sega fans within the company they should realize this isn't just some hack and really reward these guys. They could have, as you said, paid them something for it and put it on Steam. Port it to the consoles as well. Thanks Sega Lord X for this video, it was badly needed.

I can honestly say, at the risk of sounding a bit over dramatic, that this game ENRICHED MY FUCKING LIFE. As a huge fan of the SOR series, discovering this has brought me unprecedented joy. It has those super feel-good nostalgia moments but it also has those "wtf!? Oh my god, you can do that in this game!?" moments of rediscovery that uplift the experience. If anyone who worked on this reads this, THANK YOU! My only regret is that I hadn't discovered it sooner. Me and my girlfriend both played the shit out of the original SOR games and as huge fans of the series, we give this remake a huge stamp of approval. We've only been playing it for a couple weeks or so off and on and have already unlocked everything in Blaze's shop. XD This more than fulfilled our desires for more of the same (SOR is just awesome how it is) and scratched that itch for a revised experience with additional content and functionality as far as the combat system goes. Thanks again BOMBERGAMES! You made us feel like kids again and that's not easy to pull off!

It was a golden age for video games back in the early nineties. A game where just a handful of people with hearts full of passion could make a game like Streets of Rage or Golden Axe. Games made by like six people that entertained millions of people. How I miss those days. I honestly think people who worked in the "industry" back then miss those days too. Just like music, the current state of gaming these days is a result of what happens when something goes from being an art form, to a business, to an industry. It loses it's soul. There's no heart put into games these days. When you beat a game and watch the credits roll these days, there's no connection whatsoever. It's just a long-ass list of names of people who may or may not have even given a shit about what they just created. Back in the Genesis days, the names you saw on the credits meant something. They meant: "These are the people who made this entertainment for me. These are the people that brought me fun and joy."

Their success could have bought enough time for the Saturn in the U.S. for 3D sequels later on. Coulda, shoulda, woulda.

Looks like it would be at home (for the most part) on the Genesis or the Sega CD. If it was a 32X title they would have used the larger color palette to smooth things out (reduced need for dithering), even while retaining the darker tones. Honestly if it had been ported to one of their older systems I'd have paid money for a physical copy. New titles for old Sega systems is my jam.
