Best:

X-Men arcade.
X-Men Legends 1 & 2 for Gamecube and PS2.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine Uncaged edition and X-Men arcade are the only two I've really played. They were both ok, wouldn't buy either of them for more than $10 though.

That one is called Next Dimension, and it's for the PS2 and regular X-Box as well.
I don't think he was listing out all of systems that each game was on, because Origins Uncaged was also on the 360 and Legends 2 was on X-box.
And as I think about it, if Marvel vs. Capcom is there where is Marvel vs. Capcom 2?
I haven't played too many of them-
Best:
Uncanny X-Men (arcade)
X-Men 2: Clone Wars (Genesis)
X-Men Mutant Apocalypse (SNES)
Okay:
X-Men Children of the Atom (Arcade)
X-Men (Genesis)
X-Men: The Official Game (Game Cube, etc.)
X2: Wolverine's Revenge (GBA)
X-Men the Official Game (GBA)
Worst:
Marvel's X-Men (NES)
Wolverine (NES)
Wolverine: Adamantium Rage (SNES and Genesis)
Spider-Man/X-Men: Arcade's Revenge (SNES, etc.)
GOOD -
i) X-Men Legends 2: RoA. (Despite the considerable number of flaws in this game and the lack of number of things I would have liked, I still love it.)
ii) Children of the Atom [spawned XMvSF, MvC(2), all of which are Good]
iii) X-Men Legends (Gave rise to my favorite X-Men game)
FAIR -
i) Ultimate Alliance & UL2 (IMO just an "upgraded" expanded version of XML & XML2:RoA)
ii) X-Men Origins: Wolverine (Boy, I sure loved the brokenness of Lunge. Gore was alright)
CRAP -
i) X-Men: The Official Game (Worthless piece of sh*t)
~ Those are the only ones I've played. The X-Men series has a number of games, but only a few are worth playing.

All and all though, pretty good game regardless, as are its cutscenes.
As for the other ones I played, X-Men Mutant Apocalypse was incredible for its time too, but as for Next Dimension, Gambit was broken with all the infinite combos you could do with him and the kinetic card glitch...
Not that I'm complainin. 131
The Vs Capcom games aren't X-Men games, they're Capcom games.
Best, speaking from a solely X-Men point of view, is probably Uncanny X-Men. The one with Wendigo, Emma Frost, Pyro etc as bosses. It also had very bad English.
It was fun, though. I wonder why it's not on Xbox Live Marketplace yet.
I thought Wolverine's Revenge was alright.
Worst...? Out of the ones I've played: Mutant Academy. DIRE.

They should make another X-men Fighting game along the lines of Next Dimension but a lil better of course.

Same here. I like how the game's storyline was basically an alternate version of The Twelve saga. Sinister secretly sabotaging Apocalypse's machine though was WTFrandom. Not to mention, teh real Apocalypse would've foresaw Essex plotting against him like he did in the comics.All and all though, pretty good game regardless, as are its cutscenes.
Sinister interfering was fairly obvious and it was telegraphed earlier I think. I wish they had made a sequel to the game though, with Sinister being the obvious antagonist.
Also, I care nothing for the plot, it's just there to give us a way to kill/defeat fools 😛.
Iron Man was badass in the game. It's a pity he played virtually no part in the plot.
Cutscenes were alright, though they were few in number, like 1 after every Act >__>.
