[quote name='Junpei']My point is that those are, first and foremost, solid titles. If you can build a game like that and then work on all features that made the old one stand out from the bunch (peculiar moves, distinctive characters and enemies, original music covers, familiar stages, etc.), then you're practically set.
Obviously, I'm over simplifying things, but the fact is that this DDN doesn't seem a good game even on its own, at least from what I've seen until now: animations and collisions have nothing to do with being more or less faithful with the franchise. Slapping a beloved name on a lackluster title will only aggravate things...[/QUOTE]
I jut don't know where you're getting all that. Ask anyone who has played Double Dragon: Neon - it's been at PAX and E3. It plays wonderfully. Whether or not you dig the new look, it's a very solid beat-em-up. Wayforward is no slouch at updating classic games.
