I bought it. It is what exactly it was hyped to be. A new current gen retro title of a classic series. Reasonable price. $6.99 not bad.
Let's admit it. Had this come out in the NES days. We'd all have saved birthday money/allowance, mowed God knows how many lawns, and pestered mom and dad to drive us to the store to buy this game.
LMAO
"Considering the people I played double dragon with either no longer live near me or are dead"
I don't think online multiplayer will help you play with dead people
Bryan Stucker haha exactly!
i was gonna write the same thing then i saw yours lol
Double Dragon 2 was my favorite game growing up, God knows how many hours I spent on that game! I'd come home from school and would immediately play it. It's still a bomb game to this day!
Agreed, great games nevwr get old or die
I'll never the one time I beat it with my friend without dying once but he did die once
If this did have online multiplayer I would force you team up with me for a rad retro time.
You could do the PS4 shareplay thing with it to do online coop
How could you not know aboug the arcade version growing up? It was in just about every arcade for a while there. Thats like not having seen Street Fighter 2 in the arcade.
+ccmanize I didn't go to many arcades. The first arcade I went to was actually not an arcade but was at a swimming pool that had a Neo Geo machine and a SF2
he's lying, he was hogging gals panic all day at the arcades
RGT 85 wutz SF2? Spy (F)Hunter 2?
not everybody lived near an arcade. I've literally still never been to one because i've never lived anywhere near one
Man you just nail those reviews man. Exactly the pros and cons I experienced. Good summery and conclusion all in 5 minutes. Keep em comin ;).
Overall it feels rushed and unpolished. My biggest gripe is that there's zero consistency with the graphics and design, I'll be making a video about it
Agreed brother i felt the same way. Let me know when u put that review up
It's Double Dragon 2 the revenge the aftermath and i don't care what people say or think because Super Double Dragon is 4 and always will be.🐉🐉
I want this game.
Go buy it then and let me know how it is
It’s on sale right now with some of the other Double Dragons and Kunio-Kun games for $3.50 until November 2, 2020! Figure it’s definitely worth about tree-fiddy!
I'm an 80s child and a 90s teen and i loved double dragon ! Was the first fighting series I fell in love with and for 7 dollars which could buy me a slice of pizza and some fries.....i think it's worth it. If this game was like 20....no but for someone like me who misses this series yes!!!👍
Was a sub before you hit 10K in such a short time damn Bro much success!! Well deserved your an awesome dude keep up the great work. You always reply and I hope that never changes but once you hit the millions and it gets Harder to do I want to take advantage now and say Thank you while I still can!!! I'm a small channel trying to grow and your fucking inspiring man Thank You!!! For your Hard work!! Keep the great content coming.
Dude! Look how you’ve changed! Look how your format has changed. I gotta say, I miss seeing your old game collection. Do you ever miss it?
Great review. I’ve been on a Double Dragon kick, lately, so I was glad to see my favorite NON-Nintendo CZcamsr do a review.
You’re the best, RGT!
Where's Bimmy?
'Double Dragon Neon'.
Congrats on 20k subs RGT
It doesn't have Online Play, but it does have Share play, which is honestly a decent substitute especially with the game only being 7 bucks, just invite a friend from your list to play with you.
Great review, but no online co-op is kind of a deal breaker for me.
7 dislikes? How many accounts does Wood have?
LOL It's not Wood, I have no clue who it is. Ah well, jealousy is a disease. Hope they get well soon :)
RGT 85 Got to remember that line
RGT sounds way more mellow in this video compared to his newer ones.
Who needs this game when you have River city ransom underground?!!
Great video. Just discovered this channel. I agree with you 99% but the inconstant graphics mixing 8-bit, 16-bit and some awful out of place gradient and vector graphics bothered me so much that I ultimately say it's not good. Luckily it's only $7 so, It's not as bad as it could have been. Other companies would have slapped a $20 price tag on it.
Looks like a bad ROM hack. Might as well just play part 2 again.
It's not bad, but it's not great
Part 2 is def better
Great review. I hope the graphical issues aren't as bad as they seem from the footage.
Disappointed to hear this release falls short in areas but for how cheaply priced it is still plan to try out!
This game should be 4 player online multiplayer. No excuses! We need a really fun arcade retro beat em' up with online 4-6 person multiplayer. I remember having a blast in arcades with X-Men, TMNT and Simpsons.
+Rex amillion for sure! It was missing.
Abobo is my #1 cause of death.
he's a fucker!
on the steam version i'm not having the screen ripping .
RGT 85 left right toss combo
Everyone, just calm down and go watch the River City Ransom Underground trailer and get pumped for the 27th.
Change playback speed to 1.25x for normal RGT85 voice.
The tearing is just a bad port problem for the PS4. PC version with forced V-Sync on has no tearing. Lets hope they fix that with an update for the PS4 version.
Just downloaded the game a couple of weeks ago. As someone who's played and owned some of the older original installments from the Nintendo era, I would say that the 4th installment is 'pretty good.' The slightly off controls are the only main issue that I have with the game as it's a little different from what I remember and takes some time getting used to. But all on all, it feels like a pretty faithful continuation of Double Dragon II - graphics style, music/sound FX, characters, and all. I'd rate this a 7.5 overall.
That screen tearing is brutal. I was wondering if something was wrong with my download. I really hope they get that fixed with a patch. Otherwise I agree with your review, decent game, but it could have been better.
Awesome review Shawn! That is a bummer it doesn't have online multiplayer :-/
This game is coming to Nintendo Switch eShop next week if you still want it for that system.
Good review I love old school beat em up so I had to pick it up. It has it's problems here and there but it's fun. Of course IGN gave it a 3.5/10 so I had to check your review to get the real on it.
Thanks for the review!
For less than $10 we really can't complain about things missing from the game but I wouldn't have mind them charging more for more game modes online multiplayer or even a graphics update in making it that you could jump between retro and a new graphics on the Fly kind of like when Halo get there remasters
Makes me want to play a round of DD5
The screen tearing is on purpose if you didnt know. lol they actually programmed it to emulate NES issues.
Thanks for the review, Shawn. I'd love to see an all-new NES hack done similar to this.
I definitely got to buy this game.
the screen tearing occurs because antialiasing is not made for 2d games. Turn it off via settings or ini
I grabbed it, but what I really hope to see is Limited Run do this one as well.
Mitch R Wish granted. Minutes away!
The game is great. Actually you can perform devastating combos with the new moves and by the way the matter with that sound and screen doesn't happen in pc mine goes really soft
+MORING EU nice must just be a ps4 thing
RGT 85 greetings and great review
Thanks for the review man will be picking this up for 7 bucks you can't go wrong
The screen tearing is inexcusable. Hopefully they will patch a fix. Online multi-player would have been nice.
I loved the game. I played through with my buddy this morning. It's everything I would want from a Double Dragon game.
U got bad taste obviously and u probably havent olayed any other DD games if u think this is good
Apparently from what I heard, the Steam version has no screen tearing, and the sound effects are just fine. Must be a bug or 2 they forgot to squash at the last minute for the PS4 version. Hopefully it gets patched, along with a few other bug fixes in the near future.
Double dragon was great. Does anyone even make games like this anymore? It would be badass if they made a modern beat em up game in 3D without any guns. You gotta kick ass through the game with your fists.
Can't watch all the video because I'm at work. It was a good game, but lacks polish. When I finished mission 12 I thought the game broke because it just went back to the title screen, I was thinking it was a bug and thought I was only half way or 3/4 into the game. Odd for it to end that way. Still, a good game.
Exactly!
“Might even be dead....” Sorry they missed this...
im havin a blast with it. i hear,you can do online co op in the ps4 version through the share mode but havent tested it yet
nice review. In the story you said that Marion was kidnapped but it doesn't make sense since she was the final boss in Double Dragon 3. She was possessed by a evil spirit and died when you defeat the spirit. Is this Double Dragon that place before Double Dragon 3?
I just recently watched (and commented on) your best Wii hidden gems video and this vid made me decide to subscribe. I played DD IV just yesterday (got up to mission 7, will try again today) and I have to agree. The screen tearing is distracting and the audio was....meh. No where near as rad as what Double Dragon Neon did. I hope they go for another attempt , it felt largely...incomplete to me, somehow.
Thank you bud!
Great video. Keep it up!
It's a Kool game.. I just received my copy from limited run.
I gotta say Super Double Dragon was my favorite. That game was so fun, I would love it if someone got it on PS4 or even Steam, at worse case.
Super double dragon is good but it was super slow
This is why I keep expectations low. It allows me the opportunity to enjoy games where I would not have with high expectations. I will probably enjoy this throw back that harkens back to a more simple time when only boys were accepted into boy scouts.
That last bit of news ruined my day so I am sharing the wealth. Your'e welcome.
I want on the fence, but for 7 bucks??? Why the hell not. Hopefully they patch the online stuff in. I like the sound of the tower mode.
I am wondering why they went with the style of the NES games rather than that of the arcade series. Was Double Dragon played by more people on the NES? Not really criticizing just a bit puzzled.
I was hoping they would remaster Super Double Dragon
arcade is way better.
strider4176 lol and the sky is blue! State the obvious!! The game is only 7! It's worth it!
Not better than DD2 for the Nes.
19 people got beaten up by Billy and Jimmy.
Not as fun as streets of rage 4, but I will say this is the best 8 bit style beat em up
Well damn, now that I've seen this review I want to get it. I have never played Double Dragon 3 on the NES (though I do check out the speedrun), just the first two from long ago.
I think much of the dislikes come from your complaint of not having online multiplayer.
It was 6.99$! How can you expect an online multiplayer component. Can you not have a friend over? Exactly how I played it
Any hopes of this making it onto a repro cart?
It looks like the game plays kinda slow, i'll check it out soon as I finish having my surgery in a week.
The free-trial mobile version surprisingly has no screen tearing, but the PS4 does? Hmm.
Wait, at 1:58 are you telling me that you've played online co-op with dead people?
I can neither confirm nor deny this....
Great review man, for 7 bucks you caint beat it, and to later play as abobo is worth that alone
for sure
So wasn't Sony having a go at Microsoft for including backwards compatibility, their words were who buys a current gen console to play old games, and yet they offer older PS2 games for sale on their PSN store and now a new release game in 8bit form, wow i guess it's ok for Sony as long as they're making money from it.
you nailed it when you said $7.. I don't understand people whining, complaining, and bitching for $7. yes it does have flaws, but it's still a Good Double Dragon game. nowadays people pay $60 for a game and are left disappointed. great game, nostalgic feeling, huge fan of beat em ups and hey $7 why not. Keep up the great videos man and I enjoy ur content that you put out.
For me, I really love the series, and this was such a huge let down. I'd have paid $60 for a brand new retro Double Dragon game if it delivered.
for a $7 game...i say not bad.. good game but not great... oh man I would pay $60 for a double dragon and a Final Fight lol
If it were just a generic $7 beat em up I'd give it a pass, but since it's Double Dragon, I can't really do that. As I said in another comment, it's okay. It fits a $7 game, but not a new Double Dragon game. A new Final Fight game done right would be really awesome too. I agree! ^^
I felt like that arrow beep was annoying in DD2 anyway
Meh... I'd say go and buy Double Dragon Neon instead.
Wasn't it de-listed?
Was it? That is just awful if it was. Fuck digital only games, man
If its not like super double dragon or double dragon neon its not worth playing on an up to date console
You can play online via shareplay though.
I wish they called him Bimmy
BIMMY AND JIMMY? BIMMY? THERE'S A TYPO IN A NINTENDO GAME!
River City Ransom Underground will fix it.
i do look towards that!
limited Run Games physical release. we can only dream
Jorge Arias Dream comes true in a few minutes.
Wish this would come to 3DS.
me too :/
people bitched so much about that game, fuck, it's one of few new retro games from a big ass franchise. I mean people shat their pants when they knew shovelknight was fighting rash. Afterwards, people shat on shovelknight. I think we should all be happy 'cause like you said, 7 $. Also if it's a hit, they will make more new retro games.
I think Double Dragon 4 that Arc System Works should have used the Arcade machines graphics from double Dragon 1 & 2 not NES graphics don't get me wrong I like the game but I would have preferred the Arcade machines graphics
I was on the fence about this game thank you for the honest unbiased review.. I will get this and skip out on Chinese food one day...sooon lol
That screen tearing is an eye sore. I noticed that the jumping feels kind of floaty.
I actually loved DD3. 🐉
MD Hollywood me too!!! The sacred stones.!!! Loved it!
I tried playing this with my friend but he died before we started! Why no online multiplayer!!! 😭😭😭
I consider it better than 3 & 1, but not better than the second one.
btw, how is Marian alive? I guess this game goes before 2...
review starts at 1:21
I'd rather play Double Dragon with a CRT on SMS LOL...
I do adore that version.
What about Neon?
Hey man I can't get the PS4 controller to work on steam for the game. Any advice
The game doesn't seem to play too smoothly as far as I could tell, might give this one a passed for now.
Does the screen tearing happen with both versions?
Robert Rowley doesn't happen to me despite having a five year old PC
I want it too go on switch!
Pretty decent little game. Seems like after 30 years they'd be able to perfect the formula though. Just sayin'!
I BET THAT IF IT ONLY HAD ONLINE COOP AND NOT COUCH COOP, PEOPLE WOULD STILL COMPLAIN ABOUT IT. I WOULD RATHER HAVE COUCH COOP SO IM GOOD.
double dragon advance is still the best in the series
its out already ??
Nice Vid. Just liked and subbed btw. That screen tearing though... smh
It seems like the Switch version doesn't have it, I just watched some footage of it.
That's the one I was looking into. I seen a little here and there but not as much as others.
Hey Rug can u send a share play so we can both play the game and do local co op
