Double Dragon is one of the greatest beat-em-up franchises of all time and Double Dragon 1 and 2 are fantastic games, with the first being a true masterpiece and a real gaming classic.
The one downfall to all of the games in the series is a lack of a true storyline. The one nice thing that can be said about Double Dragon 3 is that it has a detailed story (and a pretty engaging one at that).

Developed by East Technology and released in 1990 by Technos, Double Dragon 3: The Rosetta Stone boasts up to 3 player simultaneous action.
