The ultimate arcade shooter!!

What's the ultimate arcade shooter in your opinion. Arcade shiiter as in most casual, noob friendly, easy to pick up, and extremely fun.

I have to say Halo, because it has:

-No recoil

-Laser/Plasma weapons

-Unrealistic but awesome gun sounds

-Big health

-Feel satisfied when killed someone

Honorable mentions: CoD 4/WAW/MW2, Unreal Tournament, TF2.

Yeah, but it's really hard to master it since you can't go lone wolf. Like the Engie will pwn the Scout without even trying.

My definition of "arcade shooter" is of the game type that was before the advent of first person perspective, the old side scrollers or overhead scrollers. You know, the games that actually had their origins in arcades. This would include R-Type, Gradius, Raiden, Metal Slug, Contra, etc...

Halos MP is pretty arcady I suppose. I also love this game on Ipod touch called NOVA, and its really arcady as well.

The only answer for this is Doom.

It's obviously Doom
