I just remembered this old scrolling fighter I used to play in the arcade back in the day called Guardians of the Hood. It was a sort of spiritual successor to Pit Fighter, also by Atari. It wasn't good per se, but it had a certain dated charm to it.
Had a quick look on Youtube to see if there was a video and came across the most awesome thing ever. Shows all the mo cap and guys in stupid outfits pumping iron.
