Double Dragon Extreme - excellent beat'em up mod for OpenBOR. It remixes DD1 and DD2 with Final Fight game mechanics.
- Don't bother downloading the game from this guy's youtube page, it's outdated.
Instead goto http://www.Lavalit.com (http://www.lavalit.com/).

If you want a fun experience download the free game rRootage and download the sounds I have altered (and music replaced).  My sounds are much more pleasing to the ears and they also don't distort like the ones that come with it.  I prefer IKA mode.  Any game with an IKA tribute mode gets bonus points in my book.

You might also want to check out the much, much easier, but very enjoyable (especially on a large screen) Torus Trooper by the same Japanese guy:

Double Dragon Extreme is awesome. Anyone notice level 1 music sounded just like that one Phil Collins song from the 80's that's featured on one of the Grand Theft Auto games

Before my laptop broke, I was definitely enjoying these games
> Big Bang Beat (2-D Fighter)
> Anything Touhou, especially Imperishable Night and Perfect Cherry Blossom.
> Warning Forever
> End Effector (3-D Shmup on a 2-D plane)
