The twin dragons return to rescue Marion in a strange GBA package that is half port, half remake, and pretty much all quality. Come get your fight on. Read more
- Well-done brawling action; good control; nice graphics; two-player action.
- Too simple or repetitive for some; no extra frills.

Back in the good 'ol arcade days, beat 'em up type of games were never rare. Most of them were just average mediocre games with minimal gameplay value. Every once in awhile, certain games stand out in the genre and one that comes to my mind is Double Dragon. Yes folks thats right, Billy and his older brother Jimmy Lee are back. Double Dragon was a kick ass fighter back in the day and it has been ported to the GBA. The game is not just a straight port (thank goodness). Read more

Beat-em-up fans would do well to try Double Dragon Advance, a well-made and greatly enhanced port of the arcade classic. There are a ton of new moves as well as new enemies and stages, and the fighting is a blast. Two player link mode is in, but don't expect much in the way of unlockable features. If you had fun at the arcades with the original game, you've gotta give this one a try. Read more

- Pretty short, excepting potentially endless failed attempts at 'Expert', Woefully undramatic end boss, The new storyline is completely cheesy and probably not that clo...

This Double Dragon game is good for a trip down memory lane. The solo single player mode is very challenging and the single player double mode is very quirky. The only way to truly play this game is through the multipak link cable option. The game will frustrate players through its cheap deaths by the ruthless AI and inconsistence jump feature. Then the repetition will sets in after a few levels, ultimately sending this game's replay value into the sewer. Read more
