The urban areas that once stood in the south all the way to Long Beach are underwater. The Hollywood River has overflowed, making many famous landmarks mere wrecks. The smog is so dangerously thick that huge fans are on top of buildings to blow it away and phone booths are oxygen booths. The city is now a metropolis out of Hell, where earthquakes and tidal waves are part of the typical day. In 1994, Universal released Double Dragon, the movie, starring Mark Dacascos as Jimmy Lee, Scott Wolf as Billy Lee, Alyssa Milano as Maria, and Robert Patrick as Koga Shuko, the evil gang leader.As the film would have it, in the year 2007, what was once called Los Angeles is now "New Angeles", a city half-destroyed by The Big One in 2000.
#Marian double dragon cartoon voice movie#
Marvel published a six-issue line of comic books based off of the video game in 1991, giving Marian an early casting as a police officer and giving the Lee brothers a very Marvelous father - Stan! Movie The former was ported from Spectrum and put into UK shops. The latter was an Atari ST conversion and released for the French market. This should not impair your enjoyment of the game in any way.īasically two completely different versions of the game were released: a dodgy port for standard CPC 464 and superior conversion for CPC 6128 which were both developed by Binary Design. The resulting small gap you may notice in the characters at waist level, is the compromise that the architecture of the C64 forced us to make. We implemented sprite stacking techniques to create the animated characters (using two smaller sprites instead of one larger one to create each figure). So we came up with a memory-saving solution. To get both one- and two-player options, and to achieve the authentic feel of two-player simultaneous action, simply took more memory than we had available.īut we knew how disappointed you would be if the game didn't have the same two-player mode as the arcade game you know and love. Here's an interesting bit of trivia from the US Commodore 64 Mastertronic/Arcadia (Binary Designs) instruction manual:ĭuring our Herculean task of cramming as many as possible of the multitude of animation and graphic elements that make up the arcade game into the Commodore 64, we were faced with a problem. Two C64 versions exist, the original Melbourne House release by Binary Designs and a later, rare cartridge only release by Ocean, ported by Imagitec Design.
In 1989, Tiger adapted this video game into a board game. The Arcade version of Double Dragon appears in the book 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die by General Editor Tony Mott.
