Double Dragon Advance

Player's Review
Wow, I didn't realize this game was so good until I played it. Its easily one of the best Double Dragon games I've ever played.
It's basically, a remake of the original Double Dragon released in 1987 created by Million Co., by former Techno Japan employees who made the original.
It borrows elements from Double Dragon I, II, III, and IV such as the music and the hurricane kick, high uppercut, and blocks. It even has enemies never seen before. What I really like most about this game is the nun chucks and fighting sticks. They are very useful in defeating the most difficult enemies, especially, the ones that look like business men. You can carry weapons with you by dropping them on the ground and go to the other and pick one up.
This game has 3 game play modes: 1P Dragon, 1P Double Dragon, and 2P Double Dragon. I chose the 1P Double Dragon you can control Billy and Jimmy but not at the same time which is difficult to do. To switch characters between Billy and Jimmy press the select button. A "You" symbol will indicate which one you are controlling. Throughout the game, after Jimmy lost all his lives, I decided to just play Billy alone so that I can progress through the game easily. It's much easier to have another player to control Jimmy that way I don't have to switch between controlling characters. I didn't enable Jimmy again until the final boss at the very last level to show its ending.
This game does have a total of 2 endings. I showed the first ending at 59:25, Jimmy challenging Billy to fight to win over Marion and she told both of them to stop. The 2nd ending at 1:04:11, showing Billy rescuing Marion and both Billy and Jimmy clenched each others' fists proving friendship.
