\"\"<\/a>1. Marvel vs. Capcom series<\/strong><\/p>\n

If there were ever a polarizing yet fun fighting game, it\u2019s probably Marvel vs. Capcom. The first few Versus games are fun yet broken, but you don\u2019t know broken until you get to Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Spending 18 hours at a tournament to watch the same 10 characters fight in teams of three makes you dislike and love a game at the same time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>2. Batman Arkham series<\/strong><\/p>\n

Batman\u2019s run of action-adventure games has quite a few standouts. Rocksteady outdid themselves in letting you become the Dark Knight and immerse yourself in the world of Gotham and the insane asylum that is Arkham. Any entries are classics that shouldn\u2019t be missed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>3. X-Men arcade game<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWelcome to die!\u201d is a pleasant yet infamous greeting waiting for you at the end of the X-Men quarter muncher. Gold and Blue \u201990s-era X-Men join and fight in a team of four to take on the Brotherhood of Mutants. It\u2019s a fun romp that reminds you of how powerful the original animated series was in terms of impact on gamers and comic book nerds alike.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>4. TMNT 2: The Arcade Game<\/strong><\/p>\n

If there is ever a game on this list that personifies GI and its life in the \u201990s, it\u2019s this sequel. Easily one of the best quarter stealers of all time, TMNT2 took everything from the comics, the original animated TV show and the movies and turned it into an ultra-fun excursion in the world of the lean mean green fighting machine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>5. Marvel Ultimate Alliance<\/strong><\/p>\n

An insanely fun brawler that\u2019s chock full of Marvel awesomeness, the first Ultimate Alliance game is fun and full of depth. It\u2019s also co-op and introduced you to the then-obscure Marvel characters that are now household names. I didn\u2019t know the Winter Soldier then or Fing Fang Foom but I bet I do now. This is the Marvel encyclopedia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
