Gimme the best beat em ups!

>> No.2741996

No.

>> No.2742001

Certainly not Battle Toads.

Final Fight CD is heralded as the best beat em' up in my book.

Most would say Final Fight CD is the best version of just THAT game, but it's more than that to me.


Next in line, I'd say Streets of Rage 2.
The first is okay, I think the third is shitty, so I don't normally suggest that one.

I WOULD suggest Sunset Riders on SNES, however, because you're using guns, I'm sure someone would have a shit fit for even mentioning it.

Damn how wrong can you be in a single post?

Here you go bro. Try SoR series, Capcom titles and if you like them dig deeper.

How pretentious can you get in one post?

Final Fight CD is definitely superb to all other ports. I guess it must have hurt your feelings that I didn't mention PORT.

Sunset Riders wasn't even formally suggested in said post. The context is there if you read it.

SoR3 is shit compared to 2. get over it.

Whoever made that chart should have used the alpha renewal title screen.

Because it has merits of a Beat-em-up but instead, it has guns.

A linear walking shmup barely counts as a shmup to me. Hence why I said I WOULD suggest it, but knew some kind of shit would take place if I

A.) Solidly declared it a beat-em-up, which I did not.
B.) Said it was along the best, which I did not.

The only thing keeping it from being such is because you use guns, but it hardly registers as a shmup to me as you are walking from left to right and the difference in altitudes is unlike those of an actual shmup.

I think thats called a Run n' Gun

>> No.2742186

>>2742175
Yes, run n' gun is the correct nomenclature

>>2742174
I get where you're coming from with it being close to a beat em up. My guess is because of character selection and how you go about fighting enemies, however it's still a different beast from beat em ups. Run n' gun games are, for lack of better term, hybrids between the two.
That doesn't make it a beat em' up.

and before you explain, yes, I understand. It's not a "formal suggestion".

Yeah, it's original USA version is the one that is butchered. Alpha Renewal and Japan version are the "complete" ones.
The only thing i like about the original USA version is that the music is handled by a YM2151.
