Alright, so Dragon – The Bruce Lee Story on the Genesis is one of those beat 'em ups that actually makes you feel like you're throwing kicks and punches like Bruce himself. The controls are smooth—none of that clunky, delayed movement you get in some older fighters. You start off with basic strikes, but pretty soon you're pulling off spinning kicks and rapid combos that look straight out of a movie.

The levels throw everything at you: dojo brawls, rooftop fights, even this one insane boss battle where you're dodging thrown knives. The enemies actually fight smart, too—they block, they counter, and if you button-mash, they'll wreck you. I learned that the hard way.

What really sells it, though, is how they weave Bruce's story into the game. Between levels, you get these little cutscenes showing his rise, and the soundtrack? Pure '90s martial arts hype. It’s not just another mindless brawler—you actually feel like you’re fighting for something. If you grew up on Bruce Lee movies, this one’s a must-play.
