I've got a Melee tourney coming up soon, and the leader of the other group seems to know his shit. My melee prowess is top-notch, but my thinking process has been slowed over the months of social activity. So, here's my question.
What online-attainable games that you can think of take quick reflexes and constantly thinking on your feet? I'm talking action-ish games like Raiden II was in the arcade. Ever fought the level 5 boss? Yeah, that stuff. I need to un-mush my mind for christmas break.

I agree: Battletoads bike level. They give you so much grief, acursed bikes.

I would say Ikaruga, but that's not available online... Although I did play a flash version once.

Oh, I kinda forgot this topic. Well, I'll start it up again, since the tourney hasn't happened yet.

I actually played Battletoads for NES with a bud of mine over the summer. He kept dying on the very last part of the bike thing. But yeah, now I'm playing DDR a lot. The arrows increase my thinking. I'm already beating songs on Heavy that are 7/10 difficulty, and one that was 8/10.
Wheee.
