Rockstars overlooked gem, i have nothing more to say about this master piece. i remember playing this game with my uncle back in the day, it's soooooo fun to play in co-op mode!
The Warriors is easily the best video game based on a movie ever made! Not only do you get to play through the movie but you get to play through the 3 months leading up to the movie and even play through flashback levels that showed how The Warriors was formed! After beating the game you even get to play a 2D arcade version in your gang hangout! You can also explore Coney and do missions that give you unlocks. All that content isn't even everything! You also have different modes like wheelchair races, 1v1, 5v5, king of the hill, etc...
At the core of this game is solid beat-em up gameplay that has me come back once to twice a year to play this gem of a game and all of it can be played co-op!
This was the first game to truly hook me. Made by one of the biggest devs I love it, it's on PS4 but on Ps5 its awfully glitchy. My only option is emulation but I hate it.
Please GoG bring back the GOAT
love this game watched the movie and managed to find a copy of the game at gamestop me and my brother played it all the time I especially loved the VS mode it's one of rockstars best game in my opinion

KaratekaKarateka is a 1984 beat'em up video game by Jordan Mechner, and was his first game created while attending Yale University. It was originally programmed for the Apple II, and was later ported to several other home computers and early gaming consoles. The game was published in North America by Brøderbund, and in Europe by Ariolasoft.
The player controls an unnamed protagonist who is attempting to rescue his love interest, the Princess Mariko, from Akuma's castle fortress. The game exhibits a combination of a side-scrolling platform and fighting game elements. The player uses punches and kicks to defeat Akuma and his guards and make his way deeper into the fortress. The game, as with most at the time of development, lacked checkpoints or the ability to save the game, making it a challenge to complete in a single sitting.
Karateka has been well-received, particularly for its realistic animations used for the game's characters. The game was considered a breakthrough success for Mechner, and would eventually result in his development of the Prince of Persia franchise. A high-definition remake, spearheaded by Mechner, was released as a downloadable title for the Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, with planned ports for the iOS and Wii U systems.Action
