The Simpson
The Punisher
Alien vs Predator
Battletoads
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
X-men (the 4 player one with 6 diff characters)
Captain America and the Avengers

My personal favorite was The Punisher because I loved picking up the guys and slamming them on their heads
wtf where is Double Dragon, Contra, Altered Beast, Zaxxon, Kung Fu, etc
I said that it doesn't include contra because of the non stop gun shootingOriginally Posted by admin
I guess I should have also included that these games are all very quick. Characters dont move slowly and are way more action packed than Double Dragon or Altered Beast
Granted Altered Beast was one of my personal favorites... It was just a very slow moving game, kinda like Golden Axe or Knights of the Round
I really miss Castlevania, Mega Man, and Bionic Commando. The list could get really long if I took some time to think about it.
Yes plus I wanted to stick to MULTIPLAYER ARCADE GAMESOriginally Posted by EM1toEVO
If I put every 2d side scroller that was awsome... holy cow thats like hundreds of games
Simpsons FTMFW.

Defender.
Edit: yes I know it doesn't meet the criteria. However, that game was so bad-ass it doesn't listen to your rules.

The Punisher was my favorite. I always played as Nick Fury though. lol
The Aliens vs. Predator arcade game was f*cking pimp as hell. Too bad it didn't get a good port to the SNES or Genesis.![]()
Aliens vs predator ate so many quarters from me, it would still probably today if I could find it
2010 Scion xB
damn dude that is epic hard!
it was a toss up between xmen, aliens, and TMNT! but i can't remember how many 100's of dollars i wasted on xmen man! i LOVED that game!
No kidding. I still remember the level where you're riding on top of the Truck/Van thing and you gotta keep firing at the aliens jumping at you. That sh*t was fun as hell. I wonder if there's still a machine somewhere.Originally Posted by Gutling
