| 2 | ''Kakuto Chojin: Back Alley Brutal'' AKA ''Kakutou Choujin: Fighting Super Heroes'' is a FightingGame exclusively made for Microsoft's Platform/{{Xbox}} gaming console, developed by Dream Factory (developers of ''Videogame/{{Ehrgeiz}}''), and published in 2002 by [[Creator/MicrosoftStudios Microsoft Game Studios]]. While used as an early demo game for the Xbox's graphical capabilities, it is more notorious for being pulled off of the shelves shortly after a prayer from the Quran was used as a sample in one of the music tracks. |

| 4 | There are 13 fighters in this game: Asad, Vittoria, Sabre, J.D. Stone, Rena, Kahn, Crusher Ramirez, Shadow, Roxy, Reiji, Vegard, Yin Kai Li, and Daeva. They are assembled for a fighting tournament named the Fist of Fire Tournament, sponsored by an evil organization called the Maladinia. |

| 6 | !!This game exhibits the following tropes: |
| 7 | * ArtisticLicenseReligion: Asad is supposedly a Muslim extremist, but is covered in tattoos, which are considered ''haram'' in Sunni Islam. |
| 8 | * AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: After discovering that Asad's theme music used Quranic verses as a component, Microsoft had the vocals replaced with vaguely foreign-sounding gibberish. |
| 9 | * BruceLeeClone: Reiji sports the slender muscular torso, the acrobatic moves, and the high-pitched screams although he is a Japanese Tomonobu Itagaki lookalike with massive scars all over his body. |
| 10 | * CastOfExpies: The cover itself shows more than blatant ''Videogame/{{Tekken}}'' inspiration for each and any of the characters (possibly barring Asad, which combines traits of Yoshimitsu, Kazuya, and Jin) if not outright ripping off. |
| 11 | * DanceBattler: Rena uses UsefulNotes/{{Capoeira}} as her fighting style. |
| 12 | * MsFanservice: Vittoria, Rena and Roxy all wear [[{{Stripperiffic}} revealing outfits]] and possess copious amounts of [[JigglePhysics jiggling]] while moving. Vittoria and Roxy also are blessed with large breasts [[MaleGaze to go with said jiggling]]. Daeva, the game's BigBad, is a MsFanservice as well. |
| 13 | * RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Asad fight in revenge for how the organizer of the tournament set his village ablaze. |
