Searching the name of an old fighting game

[Slashnoob]

Can't really remember the name, but for some reason all I can come up with is "Ready 4 die" or something like that. I know this name isn't making any sense, but for some reason that's what I remember.

Anyhow, it's an old fighting game like Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter (slightly better graphics than SF) etc.

The only thing I could remember somehow, are the characters, and they are:

*Anubis - Some wolf statue from ancient egypt that's alive and kicking.
*Angel - A chick that throws red knives.
*Pain - Demon-like thingy that looks like the alien from well.. the movie Alien. Only it's pink/purple and it's arms are like two big blades.
*Morgan - Creature that looks like the devil. He also had a necklace with a pentagram on it.
(Now those that I can't remember their names)
*Some dwarf dude that resembles Thor. He had a hammer or something.
*A green slimey creature that lives in the sewers.
*Some robot/mech.
*And the boss, called Death, who looked like a grim reaper.

...Any of this is familiar to anyone?

While your at it. I remember this arcade game from my childhood. I can not recall the name. It was similar to your average fighter but you cut off you opponents limbs to win. Anyone know?

What characters in King of Fighters resemble:

*Anubis - Some wolf statue from ancient egypt that's alive and kicking.
*And the boss, called Death, who looked like a grim reaper.
*A green slimey creature that lives in the sewers.
*Pain - Demon-like thingy that looks like the alien from well.. the movie Alien. Only it's pink/purple and it's arms are like two big blades.

That's easy enough -- it's Time Killers. I suspect the OP is merging a number of games together, because while I can think of many which have elements of the descriptions in the post, I don't believe any have all of them.

Time Killers was what Slashnoob was looking for.

Or was it also what you were looking for?

[Slashnoob]

Wasn't what I was looking for, thanks anyway tho

Yes it was

Some wolf statue from ancient egypt that's alive and kicking. - 3rd from right.
Demon-like thingy that looks like the alien from well.. the movie Alien. Only it's pink/purple and it's arms are like two big blades. - 2nd from right
Some dwarf dude that resembles Thor. He had a hammer or something. - 4th from right



Some robot/mech. - ? Childhood memory isn't as great as you'd think

Death - The final boss of the game and the one responsible for the entire tournament and taking each of the fighters from their periods. Being the grim reaper, he carries a scythe. He cannot be defeated in a 2-out-of-3 match normally, and must be decapitated with a Death Move or a Super Death Move in order to beat the game.

And the boss, called Death, who looked like a grim reaper. - Enough said?

It's the game you're looking for. Deal with it.

[Slashnoob]

Hehe I gotta admit, this is pretty funny. The characters really fit my description, well mostly.
But nah, you'll have to believe me on this one.. it ain't what I was looking for. I recall the names - Anubis, Pain, Morgan (I don't see a devil like creature), Death, Angel.
I know that there was a mech creature, and the blades on Pain's arms were a part of his skin, not actual blades. And the dude that's supposed to be Anubis is a samurai.

Plus the game was much less cartoon-ish.. it had better graphics than that.
Seriously dude, thanks alot for that find tho.

[bja888]

That would of been awesome if it was the same game.
