That in and of itself is not a bad thing, as I am also a big fan of fighting titles and have been playing Street Fighter regularly since the second game in the series became an arcade hit. While the rest of the series is a traditional beat ’em up style of game, this Double Dragon is a Street Fighter clone through and through. Now that we are clear on my history with the game, I just wanted to state that this newly released Double Dragon PSOne Classic has basically nothing to do with any of the above titles. I played other iterations over the years as well, including the ridiculously hard Double Dragon III, some of the remakes and I was among those who thought Double Dragon: Neon was a lot of fun when it released on the PlayStation Network. I enjoyed the NES port of Double Dragon, despite the lack of simultaneous two player action and got good enough at it to win in a single life while building up all of my skills in the first level and finding glitches like picking up a weapon and ‘morphing’ it into something else then taking it into a stage it did not belong.ĭouble Dragon II was an NES title I beat more times than I can count. I immediately get his with a bout of nostalgic flashback as soon as I hear it. The introduction and end fight music are still among my absolute favourite in all of video games.

How far back do I go with the series? I remember dropping many quarters into the arcade machine. I am a long standing fan of the Double Dragon series.
