A classic action platformer gets some new moves and a new look

A hard-hitting, two-fisted 80s arcade classic returned last week to rave reviews, and this is one of them. Available on Xbox Live Arcade and Playstation Network, the Double Dragon franchise comes back with a new look and a host of new moves, and its kung fu is good.
The Ghost Rider Game We All Wish We Had
I have nothing but respect and admiration for people who make awesome video game mods. Like turning the protagonist from Grand Theft Auto 4 into Ghost Rider, complete with flaming skull, fire breath and car explosions.
But seriously, one dude on his computer is able to make a better Ghost Rider video game than any of the ones made by real companies as movie tie-in games. That’s shameful on those companies. But then I’m a big proponent of just sticking superheroes in a GTA-esque world and letting them run free. It worked for Spider-Man, it worked for the Incredible Hulk; it’ll work for any superhero!
A Tale of Boy Meets Ghoul
If I had these kinds of animation skills…I bet I’d be a pretty cool guy. Enjoy the story of a Scout from Team Fortress 2 running afoul of a Witch from Left4Dead in this classic tale of boy meets ghoul. That pun is quite good.
It seems the maker of the above video, Nailbiter, is looking for a job. I think he’s off to a good start.
Back to the Future in Grand Theft Auto 4
Some video game wizard made a Back to the Future mod in the PC version of Grand Theft Auto 4, which is where they go into the files and computer code and change the very nature of the game. But not only did they create a Marty McFly skin and a working Delorean…but it can travel through time. Not back to the age of the dinosaurs, mind you, but it can travel through in-game time. You gotta see this to believe this!
Some people have all the awesome skills.
Old School vs New. When classic videogames attack, who can defend us?
Another instant classic from Freddie Wong. Enjoy!
