What Beat 'em Ups are you playing? Daily/Weekly check

[Electric Grave]

Last Gladiator

Playing some Final Fight with my nephew and cousins.

My Guardians/Denjin Makai II love affair is in overdrive.

I've only scratched the surface in this game over the years, but I'm using Tulks now..the ultimate big-man beat 'em up grappler.

Suplexes, powerbombs, enzuigiris, moonsaults, a thong and a gun. I'm still learning how this insane combo engine works…and I've yet to see an example of Tulk's combo ability demonstrated (plenty of vids out there for Girulian and all the chick characters.) But I'm able to do a 15-hit juggle so far on the first boss. 15 hits is not enough.

I think next to Final Fight, this is the second best beat 'em up of all time.

Playing the Mayor?

Playing the Mayor?

Yes. The mayor taken to the extreme

 

[andsuchisdeath]

Still playing Denjin Makai II. I'm learning how to combo better (24 hits), but I'm using Girulian.

The only concern here is that big combos create big scores. And scoring high increases rank..

Gang Wars (minis on the Vita). Game is a little corny but I like I like the way there are options with the characters.

D&D

I've been playing Captain Commando lately. I'm still pretty horrible at it. I've been very tempted to pick up one of the many Denjin Makai IIs that I see on ebay. I'm never sure if they're real or not. I guess I've been too lazy to look up what a real one looks like.

 

[zaneiken]

Return of Double Dragon, Super Famicom.

 

[Normdog]

D&D

 

[Normdog]

Simpsons Arcade Game

 

[DeusVult]

world heroes, deathmatch is a lot of fun

 

[pulstar]

Battle Circuit. It's a really nice little swansong to the beat 'em up genre by Capcom.

 

[Galder]

Samurai Shodown 2 with Hanzo to absolute perfection.

 

[Karou]

watch me try to correct something aagin!

ss2 is a fighter not a beat on them up?

maybe that new korean phone(android?)samurai shodown(correction apparently its not a SS game it just features the characters?) with the chibi Haohmaru would qualify as a beat em up, even though it looked to me like he enemies only took one hit, maybe two sometimes which would make it qualify? there is forced scrolling though too? http://www.kotaku.com.au/2013/06/samurai-shodown-stars-in-a-korean-mobile-game/

everyone kalkalkal? whatever it was it was hard to find a link to prove I wasn't imagining it?

Tell 'em Karou.

I'm asking so I can know too, more than telling.
I hope I'm right this time though!

A friend and I just ran through The Ninja Kids on the Taito Legends collection on PS2. Hilarious and surprisingly good looking, solid and mechanically advanced game. Game had rolls, dodges dashes, dive kicks, unique special and super specials way back in 1990. Pretty cool game overall. Kind of short though. I think it only had 5 levels and lots of repeat enemies and bosses.

Finally sat down for a bit to play some games. I was in a beat em up mood so in order it was Violent Storm pcb, Monster Maulers/Dadandarn pcb, and Hot Blooded Family 熱血親子 on Saturn. It's not the greatest game but I do miss Tecno Soft.

I have yet to here anyone mention Nekketsu Oyako without saying "it's not the greatest" "it's average" "it's nothing special".

False! For a console only beat 'em up, it's one of the best as far as it's engine is concerned.

PS: I love Violent Storm.

 

[Wachenroder]

Would you guys consider Breakdown on Xbox a beat em up.

 

[Electric Grave]

Last Gladiator with Grunn the Destroyer on Auto...looks so bad ass, which that color was available in Manual.

 

[RoadBuster]

Rival Turf!
