Okay, I submitted. Its garbage, but I did it. I didn't go grabbing unnecessary coins, but I didn't go out of my way to avoid the ones in the way. I just wanted to get it over and done. I did excecute a wall jump on the first pipe though. So at least I got that going for me.

Alrighty kids, I told you that after the Contra challenge in 2 weeks you would see my diabolical game choice. Well here it is...This weeks challenge is Double Dragon 3, farthest you can get without weapons or changing characters, assuming you can get that far. I tried playing through it last night just as a refresher and I was nearly dead after the first room you start in.
As always a video is better then no video. Oh and Not Sure said he's not good at this game, so lets see if he's lying. GOOD LUCK! You'll need it.

Hahaha, irony.... this is one of the first games I ever bought with my own money.

I don't know how it translates to the keyboard but I racked up a lot of time on this game. No weapons or switching characters makes this A LOT harder.

It seems you wanted a lot of short videos this time Douche Wink

Alright... just a question on a smaller detail(every game seems to have these). Say I accidentally pick up an enemy's weapon but don't use it(or get knocked down and drop it). Is the run still fine to continue?

I never played this one in the series.

Its definitely a great deal more annoying than the first two games.

Proof that I tried and sucked:

Wait, are you saying Double Dragon is annoying? Shocked

Your video says "no longer available" for some reason. Maybe YouTube just hasn't "processed" it yet.

You are correct, my wording was wrong.

I enjoyed the first two games in the series. The third is annoying.

It should be working now.

These are challenges to test your gaming Mettle or atleast improve it. Your obviously not going to love every challenge, this one was more designed to test your patience. Laughing

I never played Double Dragon 3 until today. By the way, do we play until we get a game over or something?

On my first try I went halfway past the first level and failed. Jumping attacks/throws can only get you so far...

If you just wanted to piss us off, Battletoads is at least playable.

I can't get Bimmy to do a damn thing. It's like Double Dragon II, except my normal attacks suck.

When you lose your main character, it's run over. If you get far enough (yeah, right), you get backup characters to use once your main one dies, but you can't use them.

This game is so unforgiving...If Not Sure is able to take first in this, it will officially reveal his robot status.

Heh, this looks interesting. I've actually never played this one before. I might as well give it a try. It looks like it'll piss me off, but facing 2 Abobos in the third level of the first game did that already, so this might be a "welcome" change.

Sorry I didn't do the last one with Mario. Don't get me wrong, I love the Mario games, I'm just more into the new stuff from SNES on up. Plus, I'm not sure I would've had the right mind to not collect so many coins. I've forgotten most of the secret warps, so it'd probably take a few lives.

Now, your turn.*SNICKER*

im very happy with mine. although my thumb is not, i think is down to bone at this point. the only part that took me a while was doing the wall jump in 8-4 took me near a minitue im sure but over all a awesome run. The jump in 8-1 i can do just about every time, worked out a system thats pretty easy. when you say 11:59 do u mean eastern or pst? want to know when i should check back in

If anyone has a PS3 you can use the PS3 controller on the Emulators. You need to download and Unzip a driver though. Did that last night and I'm in heaven right now.
