We loved our beat em ups back in the eight bit era. Renegade is one of the many results of that love. In Renegade, you controls a vigilante who fights a variety of street gangs on his way to save his girlfriend (where have we heard this before?). But unlike Double Dragon, the playing field is limited to one two-screen-wide area and does not scroll continuously. You take on a huge amount of gangbangbers. When you beat almost all of them down, their boss will come in from the sidelines and join the fight. When the boss is defeated, any remaining enemies retreat off the bottom of the screen, and the stage ends. The final boss is a pistol-toting mobster, along with his three henchmen. Once the final boss is defeated, the main character leaves building and is greeted by his rescued girlfriend, who proceeds to give him a kiss. Yeah, I guess there's not a lot of originality here, but it should be fun for anyone looking for some easy action.
