I know I have a retro bias, but it looks ugly.
I loved the NES version. This looks like another TMNT xbla disaster.

I dunno about this one. I'm all up for another Double Dragon game, but something about an old-school beat 'em up smacks of Turtles in Time: Reshelled. Hoping that its good, but just skeptical at this point.
And 1200 price tag?

Ha, this is great. Funny enough, the terrible translation is pretty reminiscent of the original Double Dragon series. So they nailed that.
I hope that Details section is preliminary. Brawlers today just don't have the magic they did when I was younger. [Since Capcom has basically rendered almost the entire Final Fight in 3D via their fighting games baybe they should try a Final Fight remake.]

sooo, its NOT actually double dragon 2? why not just make it a whole new game? why call it a remake or rehash when you end up changing everything ?

They are trying to capitalize on the name. "Double Dragon" will sell more then ""Will and Charie's" revenge.

LOVED Double Dragon as a kid and was so excited when I heard this but after seeing it and its price point.
Pass.
P.S. Final Fight port did it right. This is wrong.

Let me tell you, when I think of old school beatemups from my childhood, the one thought in my head was always "Well damn, why don't they take this amazing game, 'remake' it, make it look like ass, add anime titties, and make the translation even worse?? It'll be amazing!"
Right.
Right.
Barunsun, do me a favor and don't call this game "Double Dragon II." If you change the ENTIRE experience of an old game -- even if you keep the story intact -- IT'S NOT THE SAME GAME.
The arcade version of DDII will forever have a special place in my heart. NES version....not so much. Yet another example of "same game, different experience." The NES version was a good game, but it shouldn't have been called DDII.

I don't get why people aren't excited about this. This game actually looks like it could be a lot of fun. The gameplay looks pretty damned solid, and even if they redesigned the enemies, Billy and Jimmy look great and true to the original.
If it's got online co-op, I'm biting for sure. If it doesn't, I'm still going to be tempted, even if I'll have less opportunities to enjoy the game with a friend.

Looks ugly. On top of that, I still find the original fun enough to play every year. Don't think I'll buy this.
Could be fun but my first impression reminds me of a Dreamcast era brawler and not in a good way. As always, will demo and decide then.
I still don't get the hate for Reshelled. It played just like a TMNT arcade beat em up should. Is it because it's not a 100% faithful port of it's arcade counterpart? It's the Ninja Turtles man, I got what I payed for and it was fun. Atleast TMNT 1989 still exists on XBLA
I agree though, why is this 15$? Either way I'd prefer we got the Arcade version but I'll still give this a shot. I love beat 'em ups unless they play like ass....I'm looking at you Warriors: Street Brawl

Double Dragon will always hold a special place in my heart,whether it be from nostalgia or as mentioned here a retro Bias toward certain games.I have to say after scrolling down...It breaks my heart because i had instant flashbacks to TMNT:Reshelled...Nuff said their i think.Why do devs feel the need to make everything fully 3d. Should have just used something similar to the Super Double Dragon gameplay style with 3d-esqu characters on a 2d plane. I would love a new double dragon but it deserves better then this game probably will be, But I guess we can't pass judgement yet. What if by some strange miracle this game is good? We can hope
How hard is it to just slap the original on XBLA for $5 and optimize it so it runs decently? Usually companies are all about cashing in with cheap re-releases, unless we actually WANT them to do it, of course.
"The 1200 MS Point Wander of the Dragon adds a four-player versus mode to the mix..."
Quadruple Dragon.
Looks interesting. Definitely liking the remixes of the old music. I do
wonder why they said it was available to play now. Does "now" mean "later" in Korean?

Oh god, the visuals are just awful. Guardian Heroes looked better in motion(compared to the screenshots) but this..... this is an abomination.
bleeeeeerrrrrrp.. Okay... Last time I saw something like this is was TMNT Reshelled and it went horribly (arguably, since I've seen the sentiment be pretty polarizing).. And really? Wander of the Dragon? I don't think the game really needs the engrish after title when you've got those messy looking QTE's in your game that shouldn't be there in the first place..
Ahh, whatever, I'll say it: I wish this didn't exist

probably not going to get this cause of the new graphics, wonder if they'll release Double Dragon 3 with Bimmy and Jimmy
This looks fucking terrible. I wouldn't buy it even if it wasn't shitting on a classic. DO. NOT. WANT.
At least Reshelled was in the right ballpark. But this just looks like poop. And I'm not normally a naysayer like this but this doesn't even look like it's trying to be a Double Dragon 2 remake.
