Double Dragon: Neon (PSN, XBLA)

It's not DD3, noob.

This is coming to PSN in September. $9.99 or free if you're PS+

Also, this game looks like shiiiiiiiit.

After 25 years, the original beat ‘em up is bringing pure over-the-top baditude to PSN. In Double Dragon Neon, Billy and Jimmy are kicking butts and taking names as they search for their girlfriend Marian (she seems to have a habit of getting kidnapped). This time, her disappearance is at the hands of the supernatural scourge, Skullmageddon! Face off against a gaggle of goons, some familiar (Williams, Linda, and Abobo, of course!) and some that are absolutely out of this world.

DDN also features 2 player “Bro-Op”, so grab a bro and bring the true power of the Double Dragon to the evil forces that have once again incurred your wrath. Don’t forget to pick up songs along the way for your Mix-Tape, which holds your special powers and upgrades. There are also killer team-up moves, enemy juggling… and some secrets that I won’t spoil here.
Pick up Double Dragon Neon on PSN for $9.99. Oh, and if you’re a PlayStation Plus member, you’ll be able to grab the game for free until January! Pretty sweet, huh?

Push it to the limit in this fresh take on the classic Double Dragon series, coming this September!

If you're going to make a Double Dragon game and it's not anywhere near as awesome as DD Advance, what the fuck are you doing? Stop making games forever.

Should have told them that at PAX

I love how they are trying to own the schloky 80s-era action movie look...I hate how slow and boring the gameplay looks.

I saw one player throw an enemy to the other player who then was able to grab the thrown enemy and then another and smash them together. If the animations didn't look like slogging through pure maple syrup this would look good.

Every company should hire someone like me to play their game for like one second so they can know that it sucks. It's like they're oblivious.

The only thing I've gathered from this is the wife would look hot in one of those hats Linda and Poison wear.

Thank you Wayforward, not buying the game but thank you.

I can't help but think a publisher was all "Nah, guys. Polygons. Gotta be polygons. Kids love polygons."
