Line 21:
* [[Behind the Black]]: In order for the screen to scroll in the NES version, you have to be ridiculously close to its edge. This leaves you open to sudden, unexpected attacks from enemies that were standing just offscreen.
* [[Bonus Boss]]: Benny and Clyde are the only bosses the player are not required to defeat to access River City High School. Once inside, Tex can be skipped too, since only Otis and the Dragon Twins are needed to be defeated to access the final boss.
* [[Bottomless Pits]]▼
* [[Boss Banter]]: Though in text rather than spoken dialog, the bosses all had a lot to say during their fights.
▲* [[Bottomless Pits]]
* [[Broken Pedestal]]: {{spoiler|Slick is Simon, Alex's childhood friend.}}
* [[Carry a Big Stick]]: The stick weapon.
Line 62:
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: Tex and Ivan are hinted to be this. Tex refuses to fight you if he finds out Ivan has made a [[Heel Face Turn]]. {{spoiler|Actually, he has a crush on Ivan's sister, Abby}} Both Ivan and Tex will also fight you simultaneously under certain conditions.
* [[Hot-Blooded]]: It's part of the Japanese version's title.
* [[I Have Your Wife|I Have Your Sister]]: [[Alternate Character Interpretation|Implied with]] Ivan, which could explain [[An Offer You Can't Refuse|why he serves as the main gate's guard.]]▼
* [[Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels]]: In addition to having the standard Easy, Normal, and Hard modes, the GBA version has a [[Easier Than Easy|Wussy]] setting and a [[Harder Than Hard|Crazy]] setting too.
▲* [[I Have Your Wife|I Have Your Sister]]: [[Alternate Character Interpretation|Implied with]] Ivan, which could explain [[An Offer You Can't Refuse|why he serves as the main gate's guard.]]
* [[Improvised Weapon]]: You can hit people with rocks, trash cans, and tires.
* [[It's All Upstairs From Here]]
Line 75:
** Tex is an especially good example. If you have his friend Ivan (he also has a thing for Ivan's sister) with you, he will refuse to fight you even if your reputation has fallen. If you completed the Ivan side quest, he will ask if Ivan left the gang and you confirm it, he leaves too. If you have a good reputation and Ivan, he will join you.
** The mooks even get this; Otis will team up with the Dragon Twins under certain circumstances and Slick will call in the three of them if your party is too large.
* [[Power Fist]]: The brass knuckles.
* [[Respect the Pipe]]: You can pick up and use a pipe in this game. It's basically a harder-hitting version of the [[Carry a Big Stick|stick]] weapon.
