Which is the best beat-em-up of all time?

SoR3. People with babby ears can't handle the OST and unfairly bash it.

Streets, obviously.

But there's others like Shadow Over Mystara and Golden Axe that are top notch too.

Kind of a dead genre these days though.

dragons crown easily. SoR games even then were clunky pieces of trash like most sega games were

i enjoy both, but i feel Dragon's Crown is mechanically more interesting and has a lot more varied playstyles

Double Dragon

streets of rage 2 and its not even close

Amateurs.

Double Dragon Neon

Dragon's Crown for the food porn.

tfw no ps3 and no friends

I missed the tittymonster anime dnd action game

will there be another

Dragon's crown. You need massive nostalgia goggles to think old beat'em'ups with their two available mechanics can even compete with full-on RPG with varied classes and builds for each.

yes!

such a fun game.

Dragon's Crown isn't even the best Vanillaware game. Odin Sphere Leifthraser and Muramasa with all the DLC are much, much better.

PS3s are dirt cheap nowadays, the game is good even in solo play and there are still lots of people online, I replayed it recently and had randoms joining me all the time.

guardian heroes, its what dragons crown is aping

>Odin Sphere Leifthraser
The game is mindblowingly repetitive. Only difference comes in the shooter chapter, all the other characters play identically.

Being the best Vanillaware game is like being the tallest midget.

The Shadows over mystara series.

Yeah. If the entire world were midgets.
Most vanillaware games are great.

Denjin Makai 2.

...

the only thing I remember from that game is that the characters boots were called Shit kickers.

Streets of Rage is the best beat em up, and let's say Dragon's Crown is the best of the subgenre it's in (Fantasy Hack n' Slash). Not much of any beat em up these days, which sucks.

River City Ransom
