The Mayor's corruption had grown too great to be ignored. It had been bad enough when the Mayor immediately broke his vague promises of "lower taxes" and "more beer".
The disappointing party that The Mayor claimed would appease the people was another leaden weight on an already overburdened camel. The forlorn keg of alcohol and lone bag of tortilla chips may as well have been a double tap to the very heart of justice. Such lameness from The Mayor - A position that was, among other things, supposed to held by someone who was cool personified - was truly unthinkable.
And then, after such grevious abuses...
Came nothing.
My partner and I had been sitting at the same guard post for three months since the mayor's election. The occasional cannibal would break the endless tedium, but nothing could hold back the truth.
Being a soldier when there is no war is very, very boring.
We knew what we had to do.
The Resistance Leaders welcomed us with open arms, remarking offhandedly that perhaps we could be the ones to rid The City of the tyrant who ruled over it.
We accepted, and set out on our journey to the head of the beast.
After many explosions, much bumbling, and multiple partner deaths because he was playing the game for the second time...
We cut a bloody swath through the city and murdered the mayor. My buddy took his top hat and with it, his place as mayor - cementing his position with a speech about how guns don't kill people - and that artificial intelligence should be added to guns in order to resolve this issue.
We'd also completed the Big Quest of destroying all the generators on all the floors, and thus were Super Soldiers when the game ended.
Of course, the peace ushered in the wake of such a violent overthrowing of the previous regime could not last forever. Eventually, the mayor, who had already known the great power violence can bring, would grew lax and corrupt from the wealth, power, and bacon cheeseburgers.
That's when people would realize it was time for a new Resistance to rise up. A new fight to begin. Another link in an endless chain of events. A beautiful thing to behold - or something that kind of defeats the entire purpose of existing, depending on who you asked and how drunk they were at the time.
But, for the moment, no-one was asking any questions.
The fighting had ended. And it was time for everyone to get down.
Streets of Rogue, Co-op.
I had to spend a lot of money reviving my partner, but I ended up with over five hundred money at the end of the game.
The Fud processor is extremely powerful, since you can just convert enemy weapons, syringes, rocks, and many other items into "Fud", an item that heals for very little but becomes very common once you get the "Fud" processor. Additionally, the Kill - izers (Kill Ammunizer, Kill Healtenizer, and Kill Profiteer) can help loads in the heat of combat and with saving on resourcecs (ammo and money especially).
