Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons | Secret Base/Modus Games

[Zivouhr]

Looks good in the sprite TMNT style that no doubt helped inspire it along with a few other games including DD.

The arcade Double Dragon original is good, although the left right button set up is definitely unusual compared to fighting games these days where you just push the direction you want to punch rather than the button.

For the art style, it looks good, although seeing those full scale proportioned character images makes me wish the whole game had that proportion of humans versus the cartoony people in the gameplay.

I'll keep an eye open for this though, thanks.

Now just waiting for Sega to license a game sequel to Golden Axe 1 arcade (not Golden Axe: Return of Death Adder arcade or Golden Axe 2 or 3 on Genesis), but a new game, Golden Axe 4 in the style of the first game, bringing back Ax Battler, Tyris Flare, and Gillius Thunderhead.

IIRC, the arcade DD2 is the one that adopted the left/right attack (separate buttons dedicated to attacking in a set direction) button concept. The original had the traditional push in the direction and hit the attack button layout. I always found the controls a bit awkward going from DD to DD2...

I also would like to see a new Golden Axe sequel, especially seeing how Streets of Rage 4 and the latest TMNT turned out. I'll even go a step further and say that I would like to see a TMNT style collection for the Golden Axe series, which included all of the arcade games, including the utterly brilliant Return of Black Adder which was never ported to home consoles, as well as all of the Genesis, SMS and GG games.
