These highly influential titles shaped titles such as Capcom’s Final Fight and Sega’s Streets of Rage series. Gonçalo’s Pick: Double Dragon wasn’t the first beat’em up series, but it stands out as one of the most important titles in this genre. Hopefully developer Volition offers another sandbox filled with screwball antics, guffaw-inducing dialog, and an arsenal of weapons as ludicrous as they are lethal.

Between spraying people with septic waste and staging falls for insurance claims, few games have demonstrated how alluring anarchic activities can be. Robert’s Pick: Introduced as a parody of urban open-world games like Grand Theft Auto, The Saints Row series has gradually grown past mere mockery, offering madcap playground that tickles the funny bone while engaging the trigger finger. Tales of Aravorn: Seasons Of The Wolf (Steam, $24.99) Saints Row: Gat out of Hell (Steam, $19.99) WRC Official Game of the FIA World Rally Championship (eShop, $34.99)Ĭhronicles of a Dark Lord: Episode II War of The Abyss (Steam, $TBA) Street Fighter 2010: The Final Fight (eShop, $4.99) Saints Row: Gat out of Hell (PSN, $19.99)Įlectronic Super Joy: Groove City (eShop, $4.99) For those with more mainstream sensibilities, there’s also plenty of options, from a high-definition mastering of Resident Evil, Motorcycle Club’s two-wheeled competitions, and well as Saints Row in two forms: a standalone add-on and a next-generation compilation that gathers the expansion along with the fourth game, and all of its downloadable content. Between HoneyPop, an American-made dating sim, the release of two visual novels (Sakura Angels and X-Note) and a compilation of the three Double Dragon titles, it looks like PC is the platform of choice for those with niche interests.
