2nd bonus chance:

 

there isn't any Activision patch for Double Dragon, so let's fight some more in Activision's "Boxing" (Game 1/B - Normal Speed) [which also doesn't have a patch]

 

the scoring: *fastest knockout wins

(ties broken by fewest computer points scored)

*if you don't get a knockout your score is how many points you won by.

*if you didn't win your score is a negative number.

*if you get knocked out you're ranked by how long you lasted

(ties broken by most points scored)

 

(+1) -- fight and win,

OR
(+2) -- win by knockout ;)

 

 

additionally, rank among the top 5 HSC boxers this week for (+1) bonus

the first time i ever played this i thought, what a steamer, but i started having more fun when I got some skill at it. right now I'm back to getting my face beaten in on repeat.

 

the game is so ridiculously brutal at first & we only have a week so I'd say it's definitely worth checking out oyama's video above, as well as tips & videos from the previous HSC:

Speaking on Activision Games, I would like to give the following message to all 2600 HSClubers:

 

Visit the topic "Activision Patches, difficulty & 2015 Summer Quest" in the following link: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/239177-activision-patches-difficulty-2015-summer-quest/

 

The deadline to post your scores in the topic mentioned above is specified on Post #127 - September 7th, 2015.

 

Join in the thread and have fun with Activision games.

 

For those of you who have less time to play or are novice players, my 6 great suggestions are Chopper Command, River Raid, Seaquest, Megamania, Pitfall and Frostbite (Game 1-BB for all), which I'm considering easier Activision games to earn a patch.

Participation score for Double Dragon: 1,250.

 

This is not at all a game that's kind to keyboard controls, and neither will be Boxing, I predict. Here's hoping that I find the time to (a) dig out my USB Competition Pro and (b) fire up the Boxing cart on my real hardware...

Oh boy this one makes me want to punch things (ha ha!) I ~think~ using my control pad is making it easier, the kicking seems like it would totally suck on an actual joystick. I might have to plug my 2600 in later to punish myself. Do the difficulty switches actually do anything in this game?
