Alien vs. Predator (Capcom/1994) was a major arcade success, both commercially and critically. It's widely celebrated as one of the greatest beat-'em-ups of all time. Despite its massive success, licensing complexities kept it trapped in arcades for decades. Fun fact: Lt. Linn Kurosawa was referenced or made cameos in... show more

Capcom’s Alien vs. Predator is widely considered one of the greatest beat-'em-ups ever made. Playing as either a Predator or a cybernetically-enhanced human, you tear through hordes of Xenomorphs with an arsenal of blades, guns, and thermal vision. Pure arcade perfection 👽⚔️

Street Fighter II (1991) by Capcom didn’t just popularise fighting games, it defined them, introducing distinct characters, special move inputs, and competitive matchups. Its success was so massive it sparked countless revisions and clones, effectively creating the golden age of arcade fighters.

Street Fighter II was a massive hit in arcades, but even before that, Final Fight was already incredibly popular. At the time, rumors were circulating that the game would be ported to PC, so when it was suddenly announced for the Super Famicom, it came as a huge shock. Although Guy was missing and two-player co-op wasn’t supported, the mere fact that we could play Final Fight at home felt like a blessing in itself. Looking back now, the Super Famicom version was released in December 1990, when the system’s maximum cartridge size was 8 megabits (1 megabyte). Considering that the arcade version had more than twice that amount of data, it seems clear that these limitations led to those difficult compromises. Beat ’em up games were already popular in arcades before Final Fight, but after its release, the genre truly boomed, eventually leading to Capcom’s finest belt-scrolling action titles—culminating in Dungeons & Dragons, the pinnacle of their beat ’em up legacy.

🇬🇪 | Yesterday’s anti-government demonstration in Tbilisi was one of the largest on record, with nearly 200,000 people attending. The high turnout made it a success, as protesters held their ground overnight for the first time despite dispersal attempts.

Maybe inspired by the synergy between the PlayStation and Namco’s arcade-compatible hardware, Sega also developed the Dreamcast and NAOMI together to make arcade-to-console ports much easier for their own games. Because of that, it wasn’t the massive leap that Model 3 had been, but it still ended up getting a huge variety of games from not only Sega, but many other companies as well. Popular titles like Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Capcom vs. SNK 2 were also NAOMI-based games. What was disappointing, though, was the irony that Virtua Fighter 4 never came to the Dreamcast and was instead released on the PlayStation 2.

Fun fact: Conan O'Brien (1993-2021) Before becoming a late-night legend, Conan was a vital writer for The Simpsons during its "Golden Era" and a writer for Saturday Night Live. He is credited with writing the "Marge vs. the Monorail" episode, which is widely considered one of the greatest television episodes ever made, and he famously kept his 1992 Ford Taurus for decades despite his immense fame. Throughout his career, he was known for his "String Dance" and his musical talent, often jamming with his house band and even taking his guitar on USO tours to perform for troops. less

The X68000 was one of the best home computers for enjoying classic Konami and Capcom arcade games. Its hardware was so powerful that, aside from the Neo Geo, it was virtually the only system capable of delivering near-perfect arcade conversions at the time. Unfortunately, it was extremely expensive and sold exclusively in Japan, so very few people ever had the chance to experience it. Even today, decades after its release, the quality of its games is still incredibly impressive. Ghouls ’n Ghosts is a perfect example. Compared to the Mega Drive and PC Engine versions, the X68000 port is on an entirely different level in terms of accuracy and overall quality. It’s still amazing to think that a game this good could fit on just two floppy disks.

If I had to pick Capcom’s greatest 2D beat ’em up, my choices would easily be Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara and Alien vs. Predator. Capcom’s original beat ‘em ups are fantastic, but there’s something even more exciting about seeing the company work with iconic licensed franchises. The idea of humans and Predators joining forces to fight the Aliens is simply too good to fail. Everything about this game is top-notch—the graphics, sound, controls, and even its faithful recreation of the atmosphere from the films. It’s a true masterpiece of the genre. Sadly, because of licensing issues, it was never released on home consoles, making it one of Capcom’s most disappointing “what could have been” titles.

For Walt Disney, Snow White was his biggest risk yet. He put all of his finances, both personal and corporate, into its success. If it had failed, it would have been the end of Disney. But it didn’t, and it made Disney what we know it to be today. However, the following three films, Pinocchio, Fantasia, and Bambi, failed at the box office, and Walt was broke once again. Walt was always risking it all in search for something greater. Sometimes finding success, sometimes finding failure, but never giving up.

Tulsi Gabbard in October: "For decades, our foreign policy has been trapped in a counterproductive and endless cycle of regime change or nation-building. It was a one-size-fits-all approach of toppling regimes…Trump was elected by the American people to put an end to this."

In 1994, the first 32-bit next-generation console appeared, and it was the 3DO. What surprised me the most was that Super Street Fighter II X, which was hugely popular in arcades at the time, was available on this system. I still remember standing in a game shop, completely mesmerized, staring at that game for a long time. I was really hoping it would come out on the Super Famicom too, but maybe because of hardware limitations, it never did. That made it even more shocking. By the way, the model I’m talking about is the 3DO ALIVE 2 made by LG Electronics. For a lot of foreign friends, this is probably something they’ve never seen before.

The Game Boy was launched in 1989, sold almost 120 million units, and was eventually discontinued in 2003 - an incredible lifespan for a handheld console, the longest ever, unless I am overlooking another? One of the games that was availabe with the launch was Super Mario Land, and it became one of its highest selling titles (18 million cartridges), being part of the early and massive success of the Game Boy. By the way, all this with a mere 8 KB of RAM. That's 1/8th of the good old C64. Super Mario Land was essentially a perfect game, getting the absolute maximum out of the Game Boy at the time. I remember that even my mother and sister playing it, while before that computers games were really not their thing at all.

Final Fight (1989 by Capcom) was set in Metro City, where players control one of three heroes - Mike Haggar, Cody Travers, or Guy - to rescue Haggar's kidnapped daughter Jessica from the Mad Gear Gang. You can punch, kick, and - most fun of all - pick up and use weapons and objects to fight endless waves of thugs. What made it special were the massive, highly detailed character sprites, fluid animation (including grabs, throws, and specials), and interactive environments (barrels, oil drums, and other destructible or throwable items). For 1989, this was almost unheard of and challenged Street Fighter and Double Dragon (I and II) for best beat 'em up. Funny little glitch in the Matrix: Haggar's one (!?) suspender is over his right shoulder when facing right and over his left shoulder when facing left. Magic!

Ever since I bought an arcade cabinet, I’ve become really interested in arcade games. Similar to console games, you can buy arcade game PCBs and run them by connecting them directly. Capcom games are a bit unique in that they use a six-button layout, so they require a separate connector, but aside from that, the setup is surprisingly simple. You can also play these games through emulators, but the feeling of enjoying them on real hardware is something else entirely. Super Street Fighter II was the first game for Capcom’s arcade system, CPS2, and compared to CPS1, both the graphics and sound were significantly improved.

UFO: Enemy Unknown, also known as X-COM: UFO Defense in the US, was one of the coolest games of the 90s. MicroProse published this sci-fi strategy classic in 1994, and it became an absolute cult hit. The music and sound effects still give me nerd chills - this game just oozes epicness. You’re in charge of the defense and research organization Extraterrestrial Combat (X-COM). You start with basic tech and weapons but gradually learn more about the alien invasion and their technology. Virtually all reviews gave it high 90% ratings, and Computer Gaming World called it the #1 sleeper hit of all time. It flew off the shelves with massive sales and is widely regarded as a cornerstone of strategy gaming. Some games feel truly timeless. This is one of them.

Black & White turned 25 this year. Developed by Lionhead Studios and published by Electronic Arts in 2001, the project was led by none other than Peter Molyneux. It is widely regarded as a textbook example of a game that was too ambitious for its time, resources, and team size. Still critically acclaimed and a cult favourite, it underperformed commercially relative to the massive hype surrounding it (and Molyneux’s name). The game combined god-game mechanics (influencing villagers and facing moral choices between good and evil), a learning AI creature, gesture-based controls, hand-of-god interaction, and a massive open world. This was groundbreaking in 2001, but it also pushed hardware limits too far for the average user. I’m not surprised it came from Lionhead Studios. Peter Molyneux had previously led Bullfrog, a team also known for innovation and ambitious games.
