Early in the Sega Dreamcast production cycle, demos tentatively titled Streets of Rage 4 were made by Sega of Japan to bring the Streets of Rage series to the platform. The demo showed a character similar to Axel fighting off a group of enemy characters. Various changes in gameplay had apparently been planned, including the introduction of new team attacks and a new first person perspective. However, allegedly due to new management at Sega of America being unaware of the series and its past success, Sega did not follow up on it and the game never advanced past the demo stage. Video clips of a demo were eventually leaked out. – [info from Wikipedia]

It wouldn’t surprise me if this went on to become SpikeOut. I always thought it was odd that game was released without a Streets of Rage brand name attached to it given the gameplay and characters.

Sorry, but this game looks real stupid.
