If you want to play something fun where ping isn’t that important, Capcom’s 2-D sidescrolling beat 'em ups are the way to go. There are a number of excellent games:
D&D: Shadow Over Mystara
Up to 4 players. Represents the best of its class.
Alien vs Predator
Up to 3(?) players. I’ll be happy to show all doubters the power of Dutch.
Final Fight
You can practically feel the 1980’s oozing out of this ancient classic.
Magic Sword
Mindless hack and slash with lots of awkward English.
This thread is for setting up matches for these games, since you can sit in Kaillera for awhile and not find anything.
If anyone’s interested, reply with some times you’re available or send me a PM. Hopefully we can get something started.
