Here's a video of the upcoming Double Dragon game for XBLA.

This really brought back the memories. First the girl with the whip, and then the big bald guy -- I was laughing so hard!

That's a purchase.

[THAMMER1]

They sold me too bro.

Watching that guy get his @ss kicked reminded me as to how frustrating that game could be.

I'll pass!

Mainly because its just another crap retro game.

[Black Republican]

I could be wrong but I get the impression you didn't play video games back in the day...
Because if you did well msot ppl would actually appreciate this coming on live, I know I do.
brings back old times...

I have probably been playing games longer than you or at least just as long. Its just that I can't stand these retro re-release games.

I thought I could get into them when I purchased Street Fighter 2 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. But in the end, I played them for about a day or so and have never been back.

I played the sh1t out of those games when they were first released. So I figured that I would play them just as much today. Well, I was quite wrong. I don't think I will be paying $10 for a day of playing games that I enjoyed over 10 years ago.

Be my guest though!

But I'd rather spend $10 on a game that I have never played before or that was developed in 2006/2007 rather than 1988 with a coat of polish to make it look better.

^^^^^^^^^ nuff said.

[TheSadTruth]

or you could just play in on an emulator and not waste $10.. better picture quality as well

[BIadestarX]

I guess you are one of those that think that the wii virtual console is a piece of crap. since everything is a direct port.

[marionz]

took 15 mins to finish! man this game is SHORT im so not spending points on it, once on my laptop ws enough! loved it back in the day tho

[ANoobsJourney]

Anyone know when this game is going to be released? Thanks.

[Sphinx]

I buy most of the arcade titles... for some reason. If I try the trial version, and have fun, I almost always buy it. Assault Heroes, Lumines, Novadrome, Robo Blitz are pretty much the only ones I DON'T have. Oh, and Root Beer Tapper.

[donscrillinger]

brought me back to the penny candy store!!!!!!!!!!!!!a must have

[THAMMER1]

$2 would get you a 0.50 FAYGO, 0.50 pack of GRIPOES, 10 0.05 NOW AND LATERS, 0.25 pack of Gobstopers, and 3 lives on DUBLE DARGON at JAQETTA's corner store on WHITTIER ST in Columbus OH.

I'm there BRO. LOL

[Sphinx]

I remember that, too. I remember this small pizzeria in Mundelein, IL that had this game, and they'd have small ice cream cones; in the bottom of the cone they'd hide different candy, so you'd never know until you ate all the ice cream.

[FirstknighT]

Hell Yeah!!! You know how much I spent on Mama's Pizzeria near my house??? This is an easy buy. I'm hoping they release all the Double Dragons.

[FKN Unbelievable]

Double dragon should have had both games in it tho. Revenge should been a bonus also. Anyway i used to play this game as a kid all day. i remember i use to get stuck fighting abobo and will on stage one and go to the top and hide till time ran out(Until my Best friend show me how to do the elbow.) Anyway 2, Did anybody notice the New animations to the sprites? No? i thought so cause some of you aren't real DD players anyway.I'm Looking forward to this.

[kamakazi]

damn looking back on this game i never realzied that speed walking was the way to get through the game. LOL. i have had my fair share of double dragon so not getting this one.
