These are the two best beat em ups and it's not even close.
wrong>dynamite cop >hybrid heaven
>>12642130>>12642134You're both wrong. It's river city ransom and the Simpsons arcade game.
I prefer this one.
>>12642130no
>>12642130Final Fight > streets of niggas
>>12642136Simpsons arcade seems so frustratingly boring. I wish it was better. I can't hate it, but I do not find it fun.
>>12642130>blocks your path
>>12642145Looks cool. I figured it was made from some fly by night arcade maker, but it's fucking Konami. Fuck them for not porting.
>>12642130It's Bare Knuckle 3 and Final Fight CD for me.
>>12642198It's not great, but not horrible. It had perfect timing with Simpons mania.
since all of these games play and feel the same anyway I choose the one with pretty anime girls
It's specifically River City Ransom EX in the GBA, followed by the spiritual successor to River City Ransom, Scott Pilgrim, followed closely by Ninja Baseball Bat-man.
Arcade beat em up are so much superior to console beat em up it's not even funny
>>12642268Only if you enjoy really bad game design. Seriously all arcade beat em ups are 99% exploits.
>>12642130Unpopular opinion but music alone makes Hyperstone Heist better
>>12642281HH in a nutshell>run >slide move>repeat for a hundred times against the hundred uninspired waves of the same two enemies over and overand for bosses>hit boss twice>he runs to the other side of the screen>catch up to him before he gets to do anything>repeatAbsolute shit tier game.
>>12642269Good for you if you prefer 3 enemies max on screen
>>12642130God Hand and Viewtiful Joe are better
>>12642207>since all of these games play and feel the same anywayNot sure if you're retarded or baiting. I'm gonna give (you) the benefit of the doubt and go with baiting.
>>12642281Sorry but the SNES just has the superior soundchip, not whatever chalkboard they installed in the Genesis.
>>12642190I can't stand FF1 because of how painfully simple it is. Note that I said "simple", not "easy". The game is still challenging as fuck, but I just can't enjoy this simplicity. I prefer later BEUs that began to add motion input for special moves. Like FF3 or Guardians. My dream game is playing a BEU with characters that have as many moves as a Tekken character.
The rerelease with coop is the best beat em up ever made.
>>12642301>My dream game is playing a BEU with characters that have as many moves as a Tekken character.Uh, Tekken force mode then? (From Tekken 3 to Tekken 6 before the series went soulless garbo and removed them)
>>12642303>rereleaseYou're talking about the recent Ninja Saviors on modern platforms or the SNES game Once Again?Assuming it's Ninja Saviors, then yes, it's almost perfect. The only real flaw is that enemies can stall offscreen. It's particularly frustrating if you're doing stage time attacks and an enemy just chooses to spend like 4-5 seconds offscreen and kills your personal best clear speeds because of RNG.
>>12642303>rereleaseIt's a remake>>12642307Enemies only stay off screen if you camp on the edge of the screen
>>12642305I liked Tekken Force in T3, but the enemy design and level design isn't good enough. Urban Reign on PS2 (which is Namco recycling Tekken animations) had better enemies but the level design wasn't up to snuff.
>>12642309>I liked Tekken Force in T3, but the enemy design and level design isn't good enough. Have you tried Tekken 4's?
>>12642313T4 has one? I guess I should actually try it. I've always avoided the game because of how janky it looked.
>>12642314Tekken 5 also has one and it's called Devil Within Tekken 6 too and you can go with either RPCS3 or Xenia with this one. Depends on your PC.
>>12642298FM Synth > lossy PCM samples.https://youtu.be/rYPcte3BlPw
>>12642281HH has tighter controls than TiT, but worse everything else
>>12642332Any truth to this or Genesoid fear mongering about their inferior system again?
>>12642334Have you tried playing it?
>>12642136>It's river city ransomBeat me to it. The ability to level your character up with special moves you learned from books you had to buy from shops gave that game a special charm others lacked.
>>12642207My friend got me to play this with him and it's so fucking annoying. After like stage 2, every boss has i-frames on everything and I legit don't know what you do about it. It's such a tedious beat-em-up.>>12642206Yeah, and the season 1 charm where things hadn't quite settled into place yet. I still wish it wasn't Konami that made it. I find all their beat-em-ups shallow.
>>12642130I agree but too bad the Genesis didn't get this port of Turtles In Time. Its better than Hyperstone Heist and Genesis easily could have gotten a good port of the better Turtles game.
>>12642134>hybrid heavenI actually want you to explain this one.
The Punisher and Revenge of Death Adder are prob my top two
>>12642130Rendered obsolete by Shredder's Revenge and SoR4
>>12642915Well fighting game fans tell me it’s not a fighting game, and it’s certainly not a JRPG, so what else can it be?
>>12643004No, I've played and beaten the game, so I know what it's like. I'm merely wondering what prompted Anon to mention it and open to hear why he feels that way.
>>12642986I am hugely biased towards older games but SoR4 and Shredder's Revenge are objectively far superior in every way. Old beat em ups just have no depth at all. You quickly learn what can be done and there's no wiggle room beyond that. River City Ransom is the only old one that is just so charming and fun to play that it remains a good game
>>12643385>I am hugely biased towards older games but SoR4Agreed. It's one of the best beat em ups ever made.>and Shredder's Revenge Terrible. Splintered Fate brutally mogs this trash.
>>12643249Because it’s really fun?
>>12643401>Splintered FateTotally different genre that sucks
>>12643447>Totally different genre that sucksIt's not a beat em up so it doesn't suck
