10 Video Games That Weren't As Good As You Remember 

Double Dragon hasn't aged well. Released in 1987, this influential side-scrolling beat-em-up was all the Streets of Rage back in its day, but today, it just feels a bit basic and uninspired. It's like it's like a cheap, straight-to-video action film, which is ironic, because in 1994 it became a cheap straight-to-video action film starring Mark Dacascos (nope, no idea) and Scott Wolf (nope, even less of an idea).

Perhaps the ghastly spectre of on-screen awfulness will now always overshadow the gaming legacy of the Double Dragon series. where as the cool younger brother, Streets of Rage, kept it for real and never sold out to the Hollywood suits, man. Double Dragon now sits in the retirement home for beat-em-ups, regretting the day that it signed that studio contract and just wishing that it could do it all again.
