I loved this game back in the day. Always thought it was funny that if 2 players beat the game together, they were forced to fight each other after defeating the machine gun boss. Guess Marian, or whatever her name was, only wanted the best of the best.

Billy Lee and Jimmy Lee are making their way back into my life!

20 years ago, there were SO MANY people that used to hang out at the local laundry service place, just because they had a couple of Double Dragon arcade machines!

I hope that they add some Xbox Live custom features, and maybe improve the graphics some, too. I really like the way that games like Geometry Wars Evolved and Crystal Quest have both the original and improved versions of the games with better graphics. I wish they would do that with all the games.

I like the way that this game is only 12.5MB, too. This is an excellent example that you don't need more than 50MB to do almost every kind of classic arcade game. I realize that there are exceptions to the rule, though. Some of those games like WWF Wrestlefest would take up a lot of space. I read today that Microsoft actually has plans to raise the limit over 50MB when memory cards go over 64MB in size. Apparrently, Microsoft put the 50MB limit into place because the memory card only goes up to 64MB in size, and they wanted people to be able to transfer any Arcade game to any Xbox 360 system using their memory card. I know that there is a 256MB card in the words, and there are rumors of a 512MB memory card, too. But, who cares about all of that...I am just SOOO happy that we will be getting Double Dragon!

Ahhhh, the memories...The punk high-school kids that used to wear their clothes like they thought they were Billy Lee and Jimmy Lee...they thought they were Cobra Kai's sometimes! And then there were the big kids that would shave their head, and they looked just like Abobo. Those days were cool...jump kick Abobo a LOT of times if you want to beat him!

Personally, I preferred to elbow Abobo and the green clothed Billy/Jimmy clones.

I sure hope MS comes out with a larger memory card and hard drive.

Double Dragon arcade wasn't even more than 6 mb, back in the arcade days where they could be using tons 256k ram chips.

They could throw in something like NES double Dragon did like the sort of an rpgish feeling with the first player or even 1 on 1 matches
