  • To celebrate the 3rd anniversary of this channel, I am listing down my top 20 favorite 2D beat 'em up games.
    As you all know, 2D beat 'em up games is one of my favorite video game genres ever. It's always an enjoyable time to sit down, grab a controller, and beat up a bunch of enemies. It's a good mindless stress release.
    I am going to rank these games, based on what the game has to offer, and how much I enjoyed them.

    Fight'N Rage is the best 2d beat em up iv played recently it's so satisfying to combo goons until they explode into a pile of bones and it has an awesome aesthetic. The ninja is so fun to use he has that ryu hayabusa izuna drop and boy does it feel good to use

    One game I was very surprised you didn't mention was to the Alien vs Predator arcade game made by Capcom. This was one of the best beat em ups Capcom ever made aside from Final Final. The awesome part was the character had moves that mimicked street fighter moves but were easier to do. Also Final Fight on the Sega CD was the best console version and nearest to the arcade and had all three characters and was two players.

    No AVP? That game took combo mechanics to the next level. Basically a freeform combo system. Try it with a joystick for optimal play.

More specifically, Dungeons and Dragons: Shadow of Mystara and Dragons Crown. If you ever update this list i would recommend looking into those 2 entries.

    theres one thing you forgot about the arcade version of Powered Gear S.V.A.E. when you play the game in three player and achieve the level in a certain time at full health, you can summon a power armour for all three bots to combine and become a mobile armour but it is on a time constraint and is only for boss battles.

    I've heard 3's Intro and bam.
    Guardian Heroes is there so I can't think of a reason not to put Panzer Bandit.
    It's been one of those games that I'll put in any console, just because I never get tired of playing them. Panzer Bandit, Dissidia (012), Sonic Battle, Killzone Mercenary, PSASBR and Smash has been one of those games. I can drop any other games for these and will never get tired of playing them.
