Looking for 3D arcade brawlers

Last night, I was able to run Spikers Battle using the demul emulator(not as good but playable): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RQ7Gt0welw
I'm trying to see now if I can find an run other 3D brawlers/beat'em ups on my laptop, so I'm looking for a list of them, but I keep running into games either on home consoles or 2D beat'em ups we're well aware for Mame. There's also a certain beat'em up I played in an arcade a few years back I'm trying to find to. I can't remember the name but IIRC, one of the playable characters kinda resembled K' from the KOF series with the whole leather biker outfit. Think anyone here can help me out?

The game is:
Demolish Fist Dsemu Atomiswave, also check out Dolphin Blue Metal Slug type game(awesome)

Dynamite Deka EX new version of Dynamite Cop MAME
Samurai 2 Vengeance only 50 megs I think Steam game, looks like Okami
Watchmen 1 and 2, 1 is great 2 not so much. (really awesome graphics)
Kung Fu Strike really nice cell sharded beat em up

Tokyo Beat Down Nintendo DS
The new Karateka, called Karateka (a bit too short)
The Rage (3d streets of Rage the demo is free is kinda old now but I still like it.)
Zeno Clash
Batman Arkham City
Sleeping Dogs
Must play: Shadow of Rome PS2, Shinobi, Dragon Sisters and Onimusha 4 Dawn of Dreams I hear the PS2 emu is pretty good now?

2d:
Castle Crashers not 3d
Batman Brave and the Bold DS
Ikkitousen Xcross Impact PSP emulated
Batman Brave and the Bold Wii


I wish we had a 3d Obor I think the closest we have is Mout and Blade maybe with some heavy modding?
 
I'm was only looking for arcade games, but thanks for the list anyway, and even more for finding Demolish Fist, that guy looks even more like K' then I even remember(His name is Undead?? LMAO). I was actually able to run this game on the Demul emulator as well, plays pretty good but the sound still skips, so I don't know if it's the bios or the plugins, but this usually happens when the game is running slow or the FPS of it is off.

BTW, funny you called out Shinobi, for PS2 right? I ordered it from Amazon about a month ago since I never saw a copy of it in stores. I also have a burned copy of Dynamite Cop, never heard of EX though. I also own Castle Crashers on XBLA. It's ok, but gets old fast, and have a better time playing the Dishwasher games and Guardian Heroes.

Speaking of 3D beat'm ups, I only have 3 games in mind:
- Gekido: Urban Assault
- The Rage
- Fighting Force

I don't know if there are newer games in arcade since arcade is kinda ... not growing here. There are only old arcade games as far as I can tell.
 
Yeah it ran fine for me I can't remember it's been a while. You could also get Slashout Arcade a weapon version of Spikeout okay not quite but the same team. Spikeout hasn't aged so well for me apparently the xbox version is much better.

If your getting Shinobi, there is also Nightshade and Urban Reign(must get very arcade like Namco), Final Fight Streetwise also has a cool arcade mode which is pretty rough but fun, better in co op.

Lugaru is also good, PC elusive. It's sequel called Overgrowth looks really awesome still a WIP though.
 
What? seriously psp is emulated? :o :o :o

About the game with K' type character I was thinking Defmolish Fist too... ::)

Spike out have an alternate game sequel Spikers Battle, ans even Slashout (more fantasy like)
 
Not everything but a lot of good games are emulated Dissidia Final Fantasy Open Bor game anyone? Wii emulation is also pretty great, games look really nice on a beefed up PC.
 
If your PC can emulate PS2, then you must get Sengoku Basara 2/Heroes.

It's easily one of the best 3D beat em ups on the PS2. It's a true and proper evolution of Capcom's arcade beat em ups, IMO.
 
I didn't really like it, it seemed a bit bland I prefer Koei's Dynasty Warriors games. Maybe if you watch the anime it's better? Seemed to be lacking moves and combos?

Capcom's Shadow of Rome is one of their best brawlers imho.

Really? Wow. I prefer Basara over the Warriors series any day of the week; but I love both. I love how flashy and straight-forward it is. I don't mind the objectives and such that the Warriors games throw at you, but I hate fighting through a long stage, only to get a gameover because an NPC was killed. In Basara, you lose only when YOU lose; not when someone escapes/gets killed/something else happens. I understand the "lack of moves" argument, though. In Basara 2/Heroes, you can only equip two special skills at a time. Basara 3 fixes that by assigning all of your special skills to certain button combinations, and it's a better game as a result. Try it if you can.
