    Default Question about river city ransom

    So this game is a classic but its another i never played "the first time around".

    Im collecting games to play them so i want to make sure its something i want
    before i throw cash away.

    My question is are the controls more like double dragon 1 on nes where they remain the same no matter what.

    ....Or are the like double dragon 2 / renegade where the control changes depending wich way you face?

    thanks ahead of time guys!!!!

    Controls are the same no matter which way you face.

    Definitely a game you want to play. Trust me. It's definitely worth pay a few $$ to play it.

    I'd recomend playing the gba port instead, its the same game with a ton of extra stuff added in.

    Awesome game and one I owned as a kid. The only negative I can think of about that game and this is a longshot, is the framerate is noticably cut in half in 2 player mode. But its still very playable despite that.

    Apparently someone might just finish translating the also-enhanced X68k version too.
