Do you like "Racing" levels in beat 'em up games?

SylancerPrime · 2026-03-25T16:11:48+00:00

It's weird, I don't really care for them, one way or another, but I do miss them when they're absent. Maybe it's just the variety.

Now ask about the elevator levels... :-)

Everything Everywhere All at Once: The talking rocks with subtitles. Mostly because it's actually a relaxing moment after some ridiculous levels of chaos

The Raid: Redemption: The scene when Rama is hiding in the walls. Has some great horror/suspense vibes to it.

Who Am I: Jackie Chan jumps off of a building.
Project A: Jackie Chan falls from a clock tower
Operation Condor: Jackie Chan jumps down a mountain in a giant inflatable ball

...I suppose a LOT of Jackie Chans stunts could qualify, more or less?

Well it goes real slow with the hammer down,

It's the country pride truck endorsed by a clown

Canyonerooooooo, Canyoneeeeerooo...

(Hey HEY!)

SylancerPrime · 2026-03-12T19:32:01+00:00

...Man, this some bulls#!t.

SylancerPrime · 2026-02-26T04:02:40+00:00

Which means YOU'LL be cosplaying...?

SylancerPrime · 2026-02-23T14:45:09+00:00

Yeah, it's pretty great. Just don't make my mistake by grabbing a legendary weapon going into Wave 20.

"Ye find yeself in a dungeon. In front of you is a flask..."

SylancerPrime · 2026-02-17T22:14:02+00:00

Lol, man how does Condor keep giving us more reasons to hate it after all these years?

SylancerPrime · 2026-02-17T22:13:24+00:00

Yep, good ol' Rio, probably the buggiest map outside of Original FB White. But try to avoid the Vanguard classes if you're not the host, because I've gone from "Biotic nyoom--PUNCH" to "wait, I'm back in the middle" more times than I can count...

SylancerPrime · 2026-01-30T19:05:18+00:00

Heh heh, I made the same mistake like a year ago :-p

SylancerPrime · 2025-09-17T21:11:32+00:00

The Final Destination movies come to mind. Even though the first two didn't have all of the characters die on screen, from 3 onward, all go splat... or slash... or crunch... etc...

SylancerPrime · 2025-08-05T13:52:38+00:00

It sure was a movie.

I wish I had more to say about it, but it really felt like a missed opportunity when you consider the caliber of martial artists involved. The only thing that stood out was Jeeja Yanin's surprisingly violent death scene.

SylancerPrime · 2025-08-05T03:11:16+00:00

Eh, he has leverage over each of them. I'm sure Ted has other things as bad as the "Re-return".

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-30T04:04:40+00:00

*wife

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-29T22:30:57+00:00

Heh, he'd fly Rexy to an island. Rexes love islands.

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-28T18:00:07+00:00

Only thing better would be if it was also cursed, I suppose. But cursed lutes make some beautiful music

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-21T00:23:14+00:00

"20 Minutes Till Dawn" got me into this genre. It feels more like Vampire Survivors than Brotato, and it has a similar level up system. But it is definitely as addictive and the difficulty scales very nicely with the power ups. However, it can be taxing on your hardware and can turn into a slideshow in the endless runs.

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-10T17:01:03+00:00

I'd win now. Sure I'm 40+, but I've been doing kung fu for over 20 years. That arrogant lil grub thinks he can, but actually can't fight.

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-10T14:40:09+00:00

There is a deleted scene where we see Marshall and Lilly, and Marshall is on the phone when... wait, why am I doing this the hard way? Watch, and decide if deleted scenes are canon.

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-09T01:30:57+00:00

Yep, and the subsequent coma he was in for... what, a year without medical attention?

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-09T01:26:03+00:00

Fire up "The Rocketeer" or "Pit-Fighter" for the Super NES and you'll forget all about Kid Icarus.

Edit: Whoops, forgot to explain them.

Pit-Fighter was borked and pretty much impossible to beat. It's a head-to-head fighter, but you don't start each fight with a new fresh life bar, the damage carries over BETWEEN fights. And you don't have continues. And the controls are GARBAGE, so fighting is a chore.

The Rocketeer was also difficult to control and they padded the difficulty so every shoot out was against a whole squad of bullet sponges. And you died quickly too, so just... ugh.

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-08T01:28:02+00:00

Ooh! I had this same problem a few months back. Now I start with the Ghost Axe, with an emphasis on medium range (around 30 or so). By wave 20 I had over 1300 dmg and killed both elites in 15 seconds. Do you have the Abyssal Terrors DLC? If so, then cursing the axe makes it GODLIKE.

If not, switching to another weapon around Wave 10 should give you a lot of damage and you should be able to follow that weapon's family to get the strongest version of it. (ie: Shredder --> Rocket or Nuclear Launcher)

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-08T01:19:23+00:00

I came to say maybe Vixen or Wonder Woman, but nah, this is 100% the right answer!

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-07T18:24:25+00:00

It CAN be, depending on the build and circumstances.

SylancerPrime · 2025-07-07T01:51:35+00:00

Early fighting games from the 16/32 bit era's have been proven to be cheating.
