Dude, bear in mind that we live in a world where there are people who actually believe Nickelback makes good music.  Apparently, subjectivity is the bane of artistic justice.

I guess, and apparently if someone says that nickelback is the best movie of all time, we can't tell them they are wrong

It's just a bunch of fun games to play - and remember, as I wrote, I get only knee deep into lots of them because my lack of skill.  SO you could easily argue this is a list more for novices.  Skilled/expert players would have a different opinion based on depth of play.

The other point I thought I should address is that the reason I put both scrolling beat-'em-ups and Vs. fighting together is that I use the Hyperspin front end and they are both categorized and thrown together in the "Fighting" Genre - so I kept them together that way in this list.  Certainly I agree they are apples and oranges. It would be difficult to directly compare the two types, the ratings are certainly relative to each sub-genre.  In other words, when scoring, I was definitely comparing the beat-em-ups to other beat-em-ups, NOT to the Vs games.

Graphically speaking - there is certainly large variance in some of the games on the list.  You really shouldn't read it as "best" graphics as much as "most enjoyable".  That's why some games like Punisher and Super Gem Fighter scored high, they just cracked me up.  

If I'm gonna do a blog about games, I'm gonna have to express my opinion and I know folks are gonna disagree.  Like others have said, it's just my opinion (RIGHT NOW!) and I'm glad it can spark the debate.

Donkbaca:

You should qualify your list by saying 36 great fighters and beat em ups other than what people generally consider to be the best.

Haze:

reviews / lists are merely opinions.

I'd put Gem / Pocket Fighter above Tekken too, infact I don't think Tekken would even make my personal top 100, Playstation era 3D games don't agree with me at all...

Likewise I find MK2 to be a horrible, stiff, buggy piece of crap, with incredibly lazy *main* characters (palette swapped versions of others)   I can't even see how it's in the same league as something like SF2CE
