I believe poison is from FINAL FIGHT not double dragon so not sure why your bringing it up.
I was thinking about another character in Double Dragon series then, I forget, but I consider her the same character.
[/quote]I believe the neon comes from all the hot colored clothes people use to wear back in the 80's and all the crazy amount of neon signs at arcades.[/quote]
I am going to ignore that, because that is BS ( not to offend ). People wore colorful clothing back then because that is how things were, all the way from the roaring twnenties at least. After the lost era, we had fun cars, fun girls, and fun songs. Thanks the 1960's everybody was having a fun sunshine time ( in consideration of the summer of love ), and the world was finall becoming unionized. In fact the whole idea of comunism is what help bring people in the world together. Sometime during the 1970's a famouse actor walked down the red carpet wearing nothing but, a shirt.
That brings us to the 1980's "We are the children".
The 1980's was specail because they ( the MIB ) was trying to washing away all of that peace garbage. It was the restoration of the world. At the same time it was called the commercial 80's, because people did not feel the change at all. Then their was the born again Christians and the Computer people. The 1970's art boom, extended into the 1980's, along with graphic design ( which was a young feild of
work ), along with Graphic Novels ( the enemy of the comic book order ). Then when gangs were also another invisible threath, that replaced communism.
The point being is the 1980's tried to sweep everything under the rug, that occured
in the 1950's. Their was nothing neon about the 1980's. It was all neon, even since the 1930's. I mean, they just took the original game, and make it take place during the night. Hell seriously, it looks more 1990's then 1980's. If they wanted to make 1980's right. they would have a plain old street, trying to look good. It is like right now, how they are making cut backs to my city.
The game is fine the graphics are outstanding. Yes i would of liked 2d but 2.5d is good enough for me. The music is outstanding. Levels look great and the addition of bonus ones is great. The new character looks are cool.
Of course it all looks, good, but if we compared the original to this game, which one would stand out more? That is my problem. They already remade TNMNTs. Now this
If you want to keep it old school just enable the mix tapes that only give you original dd moves.
I do not want it to stay old school. I want them to make a new game entirely, from the IVth game. Anything or something. Billy and Jimmy do something else. Not just rerelease the same game, and then call it something new.
Nevermind it is just my, mindset. Their are tons of versions of Castlevania, and Super Mario brothers. but never tons of versions beat em up games. I have to keep out of that Stan Mindset, without my computer stuff, that I accumilated, I feel partically empty.
