What are your top 3 all time side scroller best em up games/franchises? Also, has anyone made any new ones in a retro style?
-
Streets of Rage (spent many hours playing that on my Genesis)
-
Double Dragon
-
X-Men 2 for PC (obscure choice but it was cool because they had different X-men to pick).
Honorable mention to the game within a game from the Warriors PS2 video game
Maybe I was playing them wrong, but I always felt that I was just pushing one button in beat ‘em ups.
The majority of the challenge was in spacing and timing, rather than complex button presses.
Not that this makes it more fun to play, but that was the general idea.
There's punch, kick, and jump. That's about it really. But they also have power moves you can unleash by pushing TWO BUTTONS AT THE SAME TIME.
How do you feel about mario?
Sucked at it lol
