Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Art of Fighting
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    SNK/Takara
RELEASED:         1992
TYPE:             Fighting
LANGUAGE:         English and Japanese

PREMISE:          Ryo's sister has been kidnapped by the master criminal
                  Mr. Big and is being held somewhere in the city.  Ryo
                  enlists the aid of his sometime martial arts rival
                  Robert, and together they battle their way through Mr.
                  Big's minions as they try to find Ryo's sister before
                  time runs out.  A popular videogame that inspired a
                  short anime film.

IMPRESSIONS:      A seriously revamped Double Dragon clone that has more
                  of a Street Fighter feel to it.  It's not Streets of
                  Rage, but is still pretty decent and will provide hours
                  of mindless fun.

VARIATIONS:       Ryouko no Ken (Japanese original, some character names
                    may be different)
                  The sequel, Art of Fighting 2, does not appear to have
                    been ported to the Genesis

Very good game about fighting a gang who has kidnapped the sister of one of the characters. You can choose Robert, or Kyo. The special powers are nice and the graphics are very good. Excellent sound and a good gameplay. The bad thing is that you only use 3 buttons, so it would be better if it used the rest three buttons for special movements.

Art of Fighting is by no means a clone of Double Dragon or Streets of Rage, it's a clone of Street Fighter 2! It pisses me off when people get their descriptions wrong when they even don't play the game! Sure it's just another sf2 clone(look at the main character :) but it's a fun one at that. I give it an 8.

Hard to beleive, very few people caught the king of fighters / fatal fury influence on this game. Robert?Ryo? both fatal fury/KOF characters.
