    TRIVIA
    Guardians of the 'Hood was presented at the ATE Show in March of 1992 in London, England. It was then released in June 1992.

    This game is often regarded as the 'unauthorized sequel' to Atari's arcade classic "Pit-Fighters" since it uses the same graphical style as well as many fighting moves from that game.
