[tipdrinker]

hey there, just converted to linux this past few weeks and i was just wonderin if theres any good quality beat em up games out there... any suggestions?

Best I've seen so far is: Beats of Rage
From the Senile Team can be downloaded here for many platforms including linux.

Also their upcoming Age of the Beast looks interesting.

Hopefully I've understood your request for a "beat em up" properly.

Don't dig up old threads when you need help on a topic..

You already have this thread.

[tipdrinker]

sorry. was jus googlin.

Do you still need help installing it?

All you have to do is download the Windows version (which includes the needed data files)

Then download the linux binary, and extract them to the same folder.

Flag the linux binary as executeable and you should be set.

If you're not worried about legality, xmame (or any graphical frontend for xmame, Kxmame is my personal favorite) is great. You can emulate a lot of arcade games like Virtua Fighter and Street Fighter (gotta find rom files separately). Check for copyright laws about that, though, I don't know how legal it is exactly...

You have to own the game to legally use a ROM.
