[Lebowski]

LOL @ Saurian!

i think its the fact that they dident give heihatchi a big bloody stick to kick the **** out of peeps with, 'lets slice of his hands' that and the lack of yoshimitsu who worked so well in that game

[C']

Best 5 beat em ups. Tricky but I'll go with:

Soul Calibur 2 (just don't mention Link, Heihachi, Spawn or Necrid)
Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution
Street Fighter 3: Third Strike
Vampire Savior
Guilty Gear XX

[Saurian]

You feel Heihachi is the supreme skank too C'?

SF3: third strike (dc)
Last Blade 2 (Neo Geo)
Vampire Savior (CPS)

thats it

SF2 - arcade
King Of Fighters 98
Bushido Blade* - despite it's flaws I love this game to pieces, and really want an update (preferably with lots of limb hacking and blood everywhere )

*played recently with a m8. Both my legs were sliced to pieces and I could only roll about on the floor. He was on his way to finish me off when I threw some sand into his eyes and quickly chucked a knife into his goulies! While he was recovering I lunged forward and stabbed him right in the face!!! ahaha - all beat em ups should be like this*

3RD strike
Alpha 3
SSF2T

i find CVS2 is one of the weaker capcom fighters

I've played as all 'bonus' characters now and have to say I hate Heihachi the least. However, I could have gladly done without any of them if it meant characters such as Hwang, Lizardman and Rock could have been reinstated.

Street Fighter 2 Turbo - The best beat em up ever and as close to perfect as the genre is likely to get.
KOF 98 - I used to think of KOF as a poor mans Street Fighter after playing this all that changed.
Tekken 2 - The Tekken series peaked with this version and I still prefer it to Virtua Fighter 2
Virtua Fighter 4 - The first VF that I ever truely invested in and would still be playing heavily if Evo hadn't came along and ****ed all that up.
Soul Calibur - Best game of any genre ever to appear on the Dreamcast which is about as high a recommendation as I can possibly give.

Hmm... Life outside of an F-Zero related thread seems strange.
