A snappy, explosive top down shooter built for short sessions. Shooting feels satisfying, levels vary and the action never lets up. An honest arcade pressure valve.

Seitai Heiki Expendable (Dreamcast) price, value & rarity
Is Seitai Heiki Expendable still worth playing in 2026?
Adapted from arcades and PC, Expendable is a top down action shooter that sends a cloned soldier blasting waves of enemies across industrial settings. The concept is deliberately repetitive, tuned for venting steam and for two player co-op. The era's effects still hold up, but the progression lacks variety and memorability. Without being a peak of the genre, it keeps a raw effectiveness and immediate appeal for fans of snappy arcade action to share on a couch.
