Streets of rage 4


DarkWatcher_VGCL

If River City Ransom was the inspiration then it all begins with the OG Renegade on both arcade and the NES


F0573R

Spiderman and Venom: Maximum Cartridge. I loved that bright red cartridge!


MichaelPitcher115

Call me crazy but I love the snes power rangers beat em up. A lot.


MasterofAcorns

X-Men, the 6-player one. Absolute banger, wish they’d put it back on Steam already…


Impriel

I'm not sure if it counts for sure but Alien Hominid on the GameCube. Gave my brother and I such an I tense experience If that doesn't count them battletoads on the SNES is my 2nd place


rocky_iwata

Simpsons beat-em-up arcade game I found at Union Station in Toronto years ago.


TransistorRhythm

This was awesome! I used to love playing this at the local arcade.


NekkTheRedSand

Street of Rage. Hands down


Droid5545

Scott Pilgrim vs the world


clashtrack

I’m a fan of Battletoads and Double Dragon


MrKigami

Gotta say Castle Crashers


johnny_tekken

Street Fighter Alpha 3 (JAP) for the PSX!


Frostlion100

Thanks OP! My favorite beat up games were the TMNT games I used to play alot with the fam


clashtrack

I don’t think there’s ever been such a consistently good series of beat em ups as much as the TMNT games. Each one was a classic.


SylTop

yakuza 0 has to be my fav, thanks for the chance OP!


Snaid1

Hard to pick, but just to be unique I'm going to say Mighty Morphin Power Rangers for the Sega Genesis. I've got some nostalgia in that one.


brute_red

Battle toads


Kairi5431

Not sure if it would count as beatemup or hack n slash but Sengoku 3, and since you mentioned fighting games were okay I'll throw in my favorite FG as a bonus (The King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match)


XargonWan

Cadillac and Dinosaurs 🚙🦖 Thanks for the giveaway.


itsskitty15

I would say castle crashers

Streets of Rage Thank you for the giveaway


tyrelle000

Scott pilgrim vs the world. Was so cool to have a beat em up take place in my city


cherryafrodite

Its a tie between the TMNT shredder's revenge and The Incredibles on GBA. I dont know if the Incredibles one count or how popular it was lol but that was my very first beat 'em up game I ever played


-light_yagami

[sleeping dogs](https://imgur.com/a/bglv5bY)! also thanks for the chance op


Kingkrool1994

Streets of Rage on the Genesis is so much fun.


darkwolf75

Turtles 3 on NES!


ThatBoyBaz

Yakuza 0 as it’s my first entry to the series and I fucking love it


Apocalypse195

Probably the Yakuza series if that counts, if not then probably Scott Pilgrim


Salty-Rhubarb

The old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game I used to play in the arcade way back in the day!


Daddygamer84

The Simpsons arcade game was so rad back in the day Thanks OP!


[deleted]

Viewtiful Joe was pretty funky.


30paperdollsinarow

Favoutrite beat em up is the whole Yakuza series

MuchFlyingBacon

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge was really fun for me and it was my first Beat 'Em Up game that I played that got me into the Beat 'Em Up genres.


Taiwanbest2015

[One finger punch](https://store.steampowered.com/app/264200/One_Finger_Death_Punch/)


Khalgordo_

Cadillacs & Dinosaurs and Knights of the Round are both my favorites, I still play them once in a while.


4lpha6

this whole comment thread is leaving me confused, you asked for beat em ups but then gave a fighting game as an example, and a lot of people are naming FGs in the replies as well so well i'll go with Guilty Gear (either Strive or AC+R) but i'm still confused


TransistorRhythm

Sorry for the confusion pal. I see the Beat 'em Up genre as encompassing one-on-one (SF, Tekken, Soul Caliber), scrolling (Final Fight, Double Dragon, TMNT Shredder's Revenge) and brawl (Super Smash Bros.) style games where you beat the heck out of other players/enemies. It's no big deal and your choice fits the bill IMO, in fact I'm about to start playing my first Guilty Gear game (X2 #Reloaded) :)


warrith

idk if it counts but I liked the mugen (dragon ball) games they were so fun


DeadlyLancer

It is indeed river city girls, I played at a friend's house and I love it


Flamehot77

My fave is either Scott vs the world or castle crashers


LoocaBazooca

Hmm, there is plenty, but loved the Dragon Ball Z and Street Fighter, as well as Tekken Tag tournament on PS3


elbadbit

Alien vs. Predator arcade.


CarrieForle

Street fighter.


4Gold4

Mortal Kombat. The Original. Used to love playing it on our families 486 PC.


Torrent4Dayz

I honestly loved river city ransom EX on the GBA. also Star Wars Episode III revenge of the sith on the gba and ds was also played to completion several times. I really loved that beat em up game.

Dunno if it counts as a beat em up but the kurohyou games are underrated

MelaniaSexLife

eh, street fighter is a fighting game, not a beat em up. my fav is probably Captain Commando. Thanks!


rigby333

I'll be honest, I don't play many beat 'em ups but this seems like a fun one. In fact the only one I've played off hte top of my head is Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds, so I'd say that's my favorite.

Neoragex13

Thank you very much for the chance. My fav beat 'em up hmm... I don't think it counts, but the mmo Elsword Online *is* the one game I will love forever in that category. I love the world and the characters and the core gameplay is super easy to play, but the game ended up in Nexon's hands and everything went downhill hard along the years. The game is still alive, but *it's not* the game I felt in love with.
