You can high5 your bro for on-demand gleam, which seems game breaking, but fun. It's overwhelming at first, but when you get into the rhythm of gleaming, then counterattacking with a mix of your magic, and the killer soundtrack is kickin, followed by a cheesy line from the bros, it all creates a silly, clean, and wonderfully entertaining experience (pistol whipping and shouting I HUCKED A LUGER!).sadly, I have no one to play the coop with, yet it looks hella fun, but very easy. If you dodge correctly, you will "gleam" doubling your damage and increasing your battery power regen (mana). The secret to mastering it is Sosisetsu (magic), Stances (passive buffs, both illustrated as your "mixtapes", my favorite being Spin Kick and Desperation), upgrading them wisely with $ and boss-loot mythril, and use of crouch-dodge. Every mission even ends with the bros AIR GUITARING! The gameplay is punishing and brutally difficult at first.
DOUBLE DRAGON NEON PLAYSTATION 3 FULL
The plot, characters, and cheesy lines are corny, silly, and one big love letter to my favorite 2 decades, all full of references to pop culture of the time and surfer-dude talk (bro, tubular, bodacious, ect). Here I not only saw how the game didn't take a pixel of itself seriously, but it was also true to the source material a refined blend of old and new. They introduced the grunt of the baddies as "Cartwheeling Fodder: Williams" and I was hooked. It felt a little slow, but that didn't bother me. After head bangin' for a few min, I started the game. The rockin' 80s style remix of the theme roused my hope. I was especially turned off by the "fanservice" and Billy's possessed-zombie visage, but all the reviews for the game seemed harsh, and I finally gave into my inner dragon's urge. Reboots don't exactly have glamorous reputations more like reputations of butchering classics and ignoring source material in the name of $_$.
DOUBLE DRAGON NEON PLAYSTATION 3 SERIES
I briefly hear about a reboot of the series and shudder. I might even crown it THE greatest game ever made, however, the series didn't age well including many a black sheep entries and passed into history. It was an embodiment of all the trends in the 80s-90s with masculine dudes roughing up gangsters and hooligans on the streets, which gave it a special appeal to me: a 90s kid and 80s nerd. The music was unforgettable, the gameplay: classic, the difficulty merciless and punishing, the graphics and level design were priceless, and coop to round off the joy. Everyone has a precious, childhood game that made many life-shaping, cherish-able memories for them. Everyone has a precious, childhood game that made many TLDR: This is the most underrated game in years. When you see 4 white lights appear on the ground beneath you, wait at the edge of the lights until the last second then dodge roll away and you can survive it.TLDR: This is the most underrated game in years. Note: the Final boss has an attack which is essentially a 1-hit KO. I am unsure whether replaying every level without using any Sosetsitsu will still unlock the achievement (If someone confirms I will credit them and add to solution).Įdit: Credit to 'EliteEdawg420' and 'FL trooper' for confirming that replaying every level without using Sosetsitsu will unlock the achievement.Įdit 2: Credit to 'rockanroleiro' for his tip that if if you want to be extra cautious to not risk pressing RB by accident you can equip Knee Drop, which does nothing when RB is pressed unless you have jumped and are in the air.Ģ) break Everything you find for health and extra livesģ) If an enemy has predictable moves wait and try to get a 'Gleam' or evade the attack before pummeling them.This saves a lot of damage being taken and if Gleam is activated you deal Extra damage. I did this on my first runthrough and the achievement unlocked during the credits. I also recommend that this be attempted on 'Normal' difficulty as Dragon difficulty is quite a step up. To be on the safe side I never equipped one at all until I had finished the game, I did however, equip a stance and can confirm that equipping stances does not void the achievement. The Sosetsitsu are the offensive tapes that you use with RB.
