Talk:River City Ransom

message: There is a machinima series that is reportedly coming soon using this game, so I added a short bit about it under the Legacy section. By watching the official trailer, you can see that it is made using the game and loosely based on it. 69.244.178.145 18:09, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

message: This topic is in urgent need of cleanup. The gangs section is horribly organized and needs some touch-up in other places.
Why does "street gang" redirect here?
: Because this game is called Street Gangs in just about every country but, Japan and the USA. But I could see how that might be a problem. - UnlimitedAccess 10:23, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

message: I found this game (River City Ransom EX.) and I've been playing it for about 3 day straight, (I'm a no-lifer.) So I fail to see why everyone hates this game? I mean I love it! I've never had so much fun with a Game Boy Advance game before, yes two player would be nice but I have no one to play with so...  Plus the Custom Character item shot the value of this game majorly for me.  Bassium!
Well the problem is despite the fact that an AI partner, the party system, additional shop items, more skills and customization of skills and appearances are improvements to the single player game, but the lack of a co-op play is fundamentally a regression, especially for a beat-em up game.  
The co-op is one of the reasons nostalgic older gamers look back on River City Ransom. I enjoyed the EX edition as a portable and  single player game too, but the inability to play with my buddies, compliment them for tossing a brick magnificently, or yelling at them for smacking "me" with a chain disappointed me, having played the original.

message: How does this "The gil from Merv's Burger Joint doesn't smile, though." Make any sense at all? Bassium!
"gil" seems to be a typo. In the original game, you could order a 'smile' for free, which gave you nothing. Cleaned this up. 67.129.250.254 04:30, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  And Another Thin! 

message: It appears to be misinformation and vandalism. There are no citations and the information seems very wrong. There is no cross-eyed girl in that game, and why would martial artists get mad over a video game when movies have been screwing up the image of martial arts for years?

thread_title:  Double Dragon Connection 

message: The script, names of shops, weapons and characters were written by William Little.  During what was supposed to be a short visit to Tokyo before continuing his PhD, Little, a recent Master's graduate from the University of Colorado, Boulder was contracted by Technos Japan to 'culturally translate' the Japanese game for western audiences.  On a lark, William constructed the story around sites in Austin, Texas (hence the name River City Ransom) and the shops were all related to family and friends. Mr. Little continued at Technos for one year, collaborating and providing voice overs on other games before changing jobs and eventually leaving Tokyo in 1992.  He is now a professor at Georgetown University in Washington DC and works to integrate computer gaming in his classrooms.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.18.234.164 (talk) 00:29, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
