Hawk and Demetri are in the principal's office for the complete chaos that happened all over the valley, while arguing over who's telling the truth over how it all started. The principal tells them that they're both gonna get suspended unless they can make their story make sense, and to tell it all the way from the beginning. Daniel and Johnny were both surprised at how Kreese used their history to turn them against each other like that and surprised that Kreese is still as evil as he always was. Daniel and Johnny decide to call a truce and make sure that this doesn't happen again. The principal doesn't believe one word that Hawk and Demetri are saying. They tell him that it's all true, but the principal tells them that everything's a mess and their best explanation being a retired mastermind veteran with a penchant for chaos sounds more like something out of a book. They keep telling him that it really happened, so he decides to give them detention where they can write their tale on paper. He jokingly says that their delusion would make a good TV show or a video game. While moves are easy to perform, I found them a bit counter-intuitive to do as you’ll be using these more often than the basic moves due to crowd control and maximum damage. They have a brief cooldown each time, and the wait isn’t an issue, I personally didn’t like holding the shoulder buttons almost constantly. Feuds don’t end in a day. But, the problem here is that Johnny and Daniel have already spent three seasons gradually learning that maybe there are some grey areas in their whole yin and yang relationship. Seeing it remain such a plot point after we’ve spent three years with their “on again off again” frenemyship is a little frustrating.Using the elements to identify each other wasn’t the best, in my opinion, and while realism isn’t the focus, some of the effects in Cobra Kai The Karate Kid Saga Continues are a bit over the top, and special effects will appear mid-screen, overlapping other graphical elements. Only a minor flaw, but this coupled with the bush baby eyes of Sam (didn’t look good) made me exit out and switch to Cobra Kai. Demetri closes the story by telling the principal that there was an anonymous tip that said that Johnny was behind it all because he couldn't get over losing the tournament to Daniel. With Johnny apparently ousted, Cobra Kai turned into something else with Kreese as president of the All Valley Karate Committee with new rules for the tournament. Miyagi-Do stood it's ground as one of the valley's best dojos, a claim which Hawk objects to. Hawk starts his story by saying that it all started at the Mini-Golf & Arcade where Miguel got a note and thought it was from Sam telling him to meet her for a date, but it turned out to be a gang of thugs. After Miguel beat up the thugs, they drive away and a map flies out of their car, which Miguel shows to Johnny. Johnny and Miguel conclude that it might be Daniel trying to get revenge for his trauma in high school. They go to Smitty's Diner where they find Kyler. He was following instructions from an unidentified martial artist, saying to come to the diner if he wants revenge on Miguel. Their next destination is the mall because Miyagi-Do was using it as their next meeting spot where they might be preparing another trap, so they go to investigate. They defeat Demetri and a thug name Shawn. Afterwards, a mall cop shows up and captures Shawn, but everyone else manages to escape. They later head to the All-Valley Tournament campus after receiving a falsified tournament invitation. Upon arrival, Cobra Kai defeats Xander and Robby. Their next destination is Weinberg TV Studios where they find Johnny's step father, Sid. They learn that he partnered up with Miyagi-Do to make a movie. They then go to the high school, where they defeat Sam. Starting with Miguel, the gameplay was much better, an initial super being a tiger uppercut style punch that was useful, and the flames actually worked well. Before long, classic Johnny was in the mix, but his double spinning punch was so lame, it should have been reserved for Demetri. The crane. Source: PR Slide To The Right

Their next destination is Oaks on the Beach Club, where they find Trey and get information that he was under instructions by the same martial artist to pass out falsified tournament fliers. Miyagi-Do's next destination is the Beach Bonfire where they find Yasmine, who is upset at Miyagi-Do for showing up at her party uninvited. They find out that the same martial artist had the All Valley Tournament sponsor her party and only requested for her to appear, prompting them to conclude that Cobra Kai is behind it. The next place they go to is 5th Avenue Bar, where they find Armand and get information on what he's up to with Cobra Kai, but he tells them that he came to the bar for a business meeting with a buyer to tell him that he wanted to buy the strip mall because he had plans for true karate, but he missed his deal and blames Miyagi-Do for it. Miyagi-Do heads to the Valley Fest, concluding Johnny was the mastermind and promptly defeat him. I have the PS4 version of this game, it had the same bugs as the PC version. The two main bugs that bugged me were. Smashing an enemies head into a car or throwing them into a portaloo is also hilarious and I never tired of it. This was one of the biggest highlights of Cobra Kai The Karate Kid Saga Continuesgameplay, mixing up specials with combos and then finishing them off by using objects around you, pressing the R1 button. Still, that hokeyness is met in kind by a more emotionally challenging season. Tory’s (Peyton List) story most certainly wins MVP this year, with Hawk (Jacob Bertrand) coming in at a close second. Each of them find their dynamics challenged in completely different ways, continuing Cobra Kai’s strong success with its large ensemble. Typical enemies are usually a pushover, but after brief title card introductions, you’ll encounter larger enemies and have to use the counter (circle button) more often. This works pretty well, and if you time it right, you’ll grab an enemy around the ankles and launch them towards the screen.

Bug 2: Awful frame rate on the PS4.... the frame rate was so bad on the PS4, you couldnt play it too long. Cobra Kai's fifth season breaks tradition with the last two outings, which have premiered at year's end, with a September debut and a conclusion that, for the first time, feels like default closure should the series not return for another run. It's because of things feeling a little too neat and tidy come the finish line that Season 5 feels a little less organic than what's preceded it. That being said, in true Cobra Kai fashion, there are still plenty of crowd-pleasing moments, an abundance of heart-melting sentiment, and some joyous usage of franchise legacy characters that help make these 10 "summer break" episodes most triumphant.

Miyagi-do plays the defensive game with more health, while Cobra Kai are heavy hitters. Those that know me will be the first to tell you – I would struggle to punch my way out of a wet paper bag. But what are computer games if not pure, undiluted escapism? Cobra Kai: The Karate Kid Saga Continues is exactly that, and being a child of the 80’s it is quite the double-whammy – not only do I get to imagine that I could punch my way out of that bullying paper bag, but I could do it while pretending to be the Karate Kid at the same time.Character Swap System - Choose your Dojo then seamlessly swap between your favorite characters within, including Miyagi Do's Daniel, Robby, Sam and Demetri; or Cobra Kai's Johnny, Miguel, Hawk and Tory.
