Well, I enjoyed Kung Fu Chaos which fits the bill, but it may be Xbox-only.

I was going to buy Bionic Commando until I found it wasn't on Steam, or Amazon, or anything normal, except for Direct2Drive and something else. It'll take me a few days to get over my dislike for those. (Not that I've tried them, but it took me long enough to accept Steam.)
Also an important criterion but I left it out: multiplayer should be arcade style, not cooperative and not minigames.
I tried the Shadowgrounds demo a while ago... it just wasn't polished enough. Crimsonland looks too crude also. Ikaruga I should fork it over sometime for the single player. Thanks everybody for your suggestions.

The fact that it wasn't on Steam was a dealbreaker for me, especially in light of the horrible DRM that was making a lot of folks unable to play.
