Poll: What is your favorite Arcade Side-scrolling Brawler?

[WickedBoy6]

Spinning off of the "God-of-War Clones" thread, I began thinking how much God of War is, essentially, a 3D side-brawler from back in the day. I began to think of all of those wonderful moments in the Mall's Arcade, where I'd play the X-Men brawler for dollars on end.

So, I decided to poll. What's your favorite Arcade Side-Srolling Brawler of all time? Of cours,e if you prefer console brawlers, there's an option for that, as well. Personally, I'll always have to go to the one that brought me to the genre: X-Men.

Streets of Rage.
No other game even came close in the genre.

Streets of Rage.
No other game even came close in the genre.

This, but add a "2" to the end of the title.

Streets of rage easily, Double Dragon or Golden Axe were awesome too.

My favourites were Knights of The Round, Shadow Warriors, Vendetta, the Golden Axe series and Cadillacs & Dinosaurs.

Also, I believe Golden Axe was originally an arcade game before it was released on the consoles.

Knights of the Round for me.

Despite the Mad Tiger Balls.
