Either X-Men 2- Clone wars or X-men 92 arcade. One of those is the best X-men game
The people who made Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge should make a X-Men game.

Very true mate
I was at Capcom back in the 90's and worked on Children of the Atom. We took it to the AMOA shoe to debut it, I was busy polishing up the front marqui of the game when I heard this voice behind me say "Children of the Atom? Who came up with that?" As I turned around to tell him that was the original tagline for the X-men comic, and that I had suggested it, I found myself facing Stan Lee. I studered, stuck out my hand and said "Mr Lee it's a great honor to meet you." He smiled even wider and said "yeah, I bet it is." He asked me what I did, and how the characters looked great. He said the game looked like a lot of fun and then he talked to me about the early days of the X-men. Finally they came and got him ready for the press conference. The whole time he was up on stage talking I could only think of two things: I met Stan Lee, and he liked our game!!! 🤩

XMen Legends 2 is absolutely the pinnacle of the franchise. It wasn't very well promoted in the UK at the time of release, but we lucked out and scored as HMV picked it up. A few months later we were able to pick it up for 5 to 10 pounds. Such a steal! Also, Dazzler isn't forgotten by anyone who read the original comics as she was such a mainstay in the 80s and early 90s with the Mojovision story lines.

On the sega genesis there was this Xmen game where just before the ending there was a sequence where professor X kept telling you to "Reset the console!!!" and I will never forget tapping the reset button in frustration and feeling like I had just discovered some insane secret trick by accident. May not be a favorite but I will never forget it.

Xmen 2 clone wars on the sega megadrive was great. The soundtrack was really good too.

I spent so much time and quarters playing X-Men The Arcade Game but X-Men Legends 1 is my favorite X-Men. Beating Master Mold was so hard but worth it in the end.
Loved playing X-Men Legends!! Currently playing through Marvel Ultimate Alliance for the first time. Called my team X-Force consisting of Wolverine, Deadpool, Spider-Man Symbiote, and Elektra. Probably should have picked Colossus, but oh well.

X-Men vs SF has a FAT Special place in my heart. I remember it when my old barber shop just got it in their small arcade area and i was just blown away, First time even knowing what X-Men and Street Fighter is. The art style, the music, the fast pace tag team gameplay. It was just fucking magic. Sad we can't get these types of games anymore. Man i do miss the 90s...
Running around with Magneto in his giant cape stamping his authority on the battlefield pushing enemies away, creating metal bridges to cross and flying around in X-Men Lengends 2 was the most epic thing! Great memories!
Xmen could use a new game in same vain as TMNT Shredders Revenge.
Magneto: "X-men, prepare to Hell"
They need to re-release all these games for PS4 and PS5.
X-Men: Children Of The Atom came out in 1994, not 1995. Also, after X-Men Vs. Street Fighter and before Marvel Vs. Capcom: Clash Of Super Heroes, there was Marvel Super Heroes Vs. Street Fighter in 1997.
Nice list! Spiderman and Xmen Arcades Revenge for the Snes was my guilty pleasure 😂
X-Men Legends 1 & 2 are still my #1 favorites from playing the X-Men video game series, I literally love and enjoyed playing as my favorite X-Men characters both good and evil as well as wearing the costumes for the characters you unlocked.

Great video. X2 Wolverines Revenge is my all time favorite on ps2. Still have my copy. I'm sure that will be surpassed with the new Insomniac Wolverine game though!!!!! Can't wait😊
X-men clone wars should be #1. That’s my childhood memory playing that game on the devs with Wolverine. Sega 90s classic.
This is awesome
My favorite has always been Spiderman and Xmen: Arcades Revenge. On SNES. I've been playing it for 30 years now.
I really enjoyed X-men Destiny. Getting to choose actions that affected the games outcome, and feeling like an Omega level mutant at the end was satisfying.
Man I think I’m going to have to get a PS2 again. X Men Legends 1 & 2 were amazing, X Men 2, Wolverines Revenge and X Men: The Official Movie Game were good man
X-men clone wars on genesis/mega drive was an absolute gem for kids like me who loved the animated cartoon too.
Everyone knows the Uncanny X-Men on Nintendo was the best X-Men game ever. The graphics, the gameplay, the computer AI! All top notch!
X2 Wolverine’s Revenge deserved a mention here. I found it more enjoyable then Origins tbh. The fighting was solid, the stealth aspects added a lot and the story was great. Plus you had Mark frickin Hamill voicing Wolverine 👌
NightCrawler In X-Men legends still til this day holds the coolest way to play a Top down like that---He could Teleport through the walls and it made his gameplay so damn Unique
X Men Origins Wolverine Is Still The Best X Men Video Game!
Wow. Definitely played children of the atom and the previous one at the arcade as a kid. Basically all my quarters went to X-men games. Also had apocalypse of snes and loved that game
XMen Next Dimension. I’m very surprised that wasn’t on the list
I remember getting to Magento on the Konami arcade game and being...reluctant to leave the machine. I was at a friend's birthday party and it was time to light the cake and sing the song lol.
We desperately need an old school X-Men game collection.
X-men Origins Wolverine should have been in the top 3 of this list.
Glad to see mutant apocalypse getting some love. Loved playing that game on the SNES
Sliding around with iceman in marvels ultimate alliance 2 was dope back in the day.
I'm still waiting for X-Men Legends HD Collection
Thank you. I’ve been saying that nobody talks about the X-Men Legends series. Those were great games IMO
Man.. I have played all at the time.. including GG. This is so nostalgic!
6:31 In terms of gameplay, lore, characters and almost everything, the best X-men game ever, so much fun. Legends II is pretty goated too ❤, I've played those after Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1&2 and the roots are definitely there, i love those games honestly 😊 8:08 Wolverine XD
Finally unlocking Professor Xavier in Legends 2 is hysterical. I'm out of the Wheelchair beeyatch!
Children of Atom is by far my favorite
X-Men 2: Wolverine's Revenge was my favourite game back in the day. Sad it's not on the list.
*X-Men Legend & X-Men Legend 2: Apocalypse, X-Men 2: Clone Wars, X-Men: Mutant Academy 2, X-Men: Children of the Atom, X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse, X-Men Origins: Wolverine and X-Men vs Street Fighter* are all My Favorite X-Men Video Games from my Childhood Years. I Absolutely have fun playing these with my friends, siblings and cousins. They're all so Super Nostalgic and Memorable.
If anything this list just goes to show you that the X-Men as a franchise have been woefully underused in gaming.
X men legends 2 is one of the greatest xmen games I’ve ever played. I spent countless nights the summer I got it as a kid playing until like 2 am 😂
Xmen legends 2 is an amazing game i like how you get the extremely rare green drops
The first video that puts XML2 above XML. Finally! X-Men Legends 2 is GOATED. I wish the MUA games would go back to that formula, but I understand why they don’t. Fantastic series. Sad we haven’t seen a proper x men game since 2011.
I remember a childhood friend lent me Legends 2 CD to play a brief time. I was checking if they've done something similar with today's graphic motors... guess not.
of the one on this list clone wars was my favorite it was Aldo the first time I ever heard of Psylocke such a fun character to play and really cool character in general
I would pay decent coin for a XML 1 and 2 Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 and 2 remaster collection
The team behind Marvels Guardians would be a fantastic pairing with the X-Men IP
The game based on xmen 2 movie, you played as nightcrawler, wolverine and iceman. It was a solid game
the irony with the x men origins game is that wolverine is smart in the game because of the movie, but because it’s the comic version of the movie he shouldn’t be intelligent, but i understand that they had to make it as close to the movie as possible 😂
Been watching the X-Men 97 show and I’ve been itching to play some X-Men games.
I played x-men legends so much I should get a pension for it. The game is timeless and the story is beautiful.
the pc port of X-Men Children of atom for dos, ran great back in the day. Probably a much less known port though.
Saying the now forgotten Dazzler as her next solo series is announced is crazy
Honourable mention: X-Men Next Dimension
X Men The Official Game, based on the 2006 movie, was also pretty decent. I like how they got Nightcrawler's teleportation abilities right.
We need the return of games like x-men legends and marvel ultimate alliance for superhero games. Best way to put in a giant roster and don't need to overthink with gameplay styles. Easy and effective.
I miss the ultimate alliance series. They were fun af to play during my teenage years. There was a mmorpg called marvel something, very fun but disbanded later

I always thought X-men would make a great MMO video game. You create your character with certain mutant abilities and looks. You start the game as a graduate from Professor X's school. All the main character Xmen are your NPC's that you get quests from and you begin your adventure into the world with other players as the events of the series unfold around you.

@@timboslice980 I actually looked into City of Heroes not long ago. After they shut down the official servers I guess a bunch of the fans got together and made a privater server for it and kept it going. I don't know if it's still active or not but if it is I may give it a try.
I think with the release of X-Men 97 should definitely get either an arcade brawler or fighting game 90s style I can't imagine there being anyone here who wouldn't buy that
I'll be honest with the return of X-Men on Disney Plus. I'm honestly surprised they didn't do X-Men Legends on Nintendo Switch.
Me acabo de dar cuenta que los he jugado todos, guardo mucho cariño por el X-men Clone Wars de Sega; y el X-men Legends 2 es una obra maestra para fans de los X-men, además de hacer un repaso por toda la historia en la versión de PC la multiplicidad de Mods permitían no solo agregar personajes sino tambien los uniformes clásicos
Without Xmen games we wouldn't have Marvel vs Capcom
Lol the now forgotten Dazzler?
X-Men: Destiny doesn't really count, it had a lot of really strong concepts, but they were half-assed and mostly disappointing. Still, there is enough potential there that it holds a special place for me.
Konami's 1992 beat em up is the one I have the most nostalgia for.
