Double Dragon 4 is a perfect solution for people who want to relive every bad design feature of 20th century arcade games. Feel once again that surge of emotions when enemies hit you from offscreen, or when you die during a clunky but merciless platforming section. Not to mention the authentic earworm music.

I like old-school brawler. I like pixelart. But Double Dragon 4 is too old-school for its own sake. Instead of trying to stay true to its roots and modernize the concept here and then this game seems like they just changed the sprites and backgrounds from Double Dragon 2.

If you're an old school type of player. You "should" probably love this.Battle through 12 Stages in either single player or couch co-op.If you're an old school type of player. You "should" probably love this.Battle through 12 Stages in either single player or couch co-op.Added is a 2-Player Fight mode from the originals.(You unlock all the characters for the duel mode by beating the Single Player/Co-op game.)After you complete the Main story there is a tower mode that has 100 rooms/levels or so.(You only have one life to make it as far as you can.)When you reach certain points in the tower, you can then unlock Enemy characters to play through the story mode with.There's quite a few moves too.(I love that the special moves can be done in one button press instead of a combo. Which there are a few combos as well.)The graphics are mildly upgraded from the originals.The sounds are still classic.The music is only so-so. (Sort of calming music actually.)The controls feel more responsive and smoother than the originals.I have no personal complaints about the game.9/10.It's truly my favorite Double Dragon ever and I feel it delivers on all fronts.Could it be upgraded a tad more?Probably, let's wait and see if there's another installment or even an update.

Double Dragon IV can be completed in just one hour and doesn´t live up to the expectations. Neither its graphics nor the gameplay meet the bare minimum to be expected these days, crowded with awesome games with retro aesthetics. A missed opportunity for the old fashioned beat em up genre.

The new moves/customizable controls are an improvement from double dragon 2 with this game...however with it's lazy level design, forgivingThe new moves/customizable controls are an improvement from double dragon 2 with this game...however with it's lazy level design, forgiving continues and barely any challenge unless the screen is swarmed with enemies, anyone comparing this entry to the legendary double dragon 2 is completely delusional
