Ok. I liked going to gambreaker tv at one point but now? This top 20 hero games list proves that they are just another wanna be site selling ads.

Please check this list out and feel free to blow this clown Troy Blackburn out of gaming journalism. For this crap list, I think he deserves some serious agro!!!

Well, the Arkham games have some pretty solid claims to slots 1 and 2, but yeah, I can think of several games better merited to that list... COH, X-Men Children of the Atom, the list goes on... I think this wierdo just had his nostalgia goggles welded to his face.

Wow, he had a lot of crap old games on there...e.g. both the TMNT arcade games sucked ass (people lined up for that crap in his arcade? TMNT were always empty in mine!)
Bob Dole!! Bob Dole. Bob Dole! Bob Dole. Bob Dole. Bob Dole... Bob Dole... Bob... Dole...... Bob...

I happen to like the tmnt arcade games. I remember going to pizza hut and playing those originally and when the movies and cartoon were still new. I think I watched  either the second or third movie at a drive inn theater (sadly gone now, it was the last of it's kind in my area)

Only played marvel vs capcom one and in fact I still play it quite often.

While I'm a batman fan I don't like this new age shit DC has been putting out since the new shitty two universe so I'm kinda afraid to even check the games out.

Some interesting games there but none are gonna replace city of heroes anytime soon.

I liked the first TMNT arcade game, but the second one was outdone by its own SNES port (which had better controls, more stages, and better bosses, including the final boss).  But I don't count them among the top twenty superhero games of all time.  (Certainly not above Lego Marvel Super Heroes, which I spent much of this month playing through)

And I'm not even sure the article writer knows what games he's talking about, because "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game" is a NES game.  It's a port of the arcade game, which is just called "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" - no "II".  The NES game has "II" because it's the second TMNT game to appear on the NES.  Meanwhile, the arcade Turtles In Time is called "TMNT2", but its SNES port is called "TMNT4" for the same reason, following up on the NES numbering scheme.

All that said...

The lack of CoH is criminal.  CoH is still my favorite game - superhero or otherwise, MMO or otherwise - of all time.

How ultimate alliance 2 got on there but one didn't idk. 2 wasn't nearly as deep or as fun. I played through the first probably a dozen times and only 2 on the sequel just to see both sides of the war. maximum carnage and x-men mutant apocalypse were also conspicuously absent.

WOW!!!!  I posted a comment calling him out on not putting games like COH ,DCUO,CO and MUO . My comment got deleted and i'm now banned from posting on gamebreaker tv.  Ha !!  Their loss on the click revenue I guess.  I watched a few of the shows and regularly read their articles. No need to go back to there I guess.
