XBLA Today: Double Dragon Neon, Red Johnson’s Chronicles 2

Take a trip back in time with today’s Xbox Live Arcade update!

The Lee brothers are back in Double Dragon: Neon and this time they’re taking on Skullmageddon to save “their shared love interest, Marian.” Wait… what? Shared love interest? What exactly was going on in the world of Double Dragon when I turned my NES off for the night?

Billy and Jimmy Lee are back to save their shared love interest, Marian from the evil Skullmageddon across 16 brawling levels filled with elaborate missions, malicious enemies and over-the-top battles. Trained by their sensei in a special form of martial arts, Billy and Jimmy are equipped with lethal combat skills and weaponry to bust some faces and battle the baddest goons around as they journey across the galaxy to rescue the love of their lives.

Also available this week is Red Johnson’s Chronicles: One Against All, a noirish point-and-click adventure starring the titular detective. One Against All is actually the second Red Johnson game as the first was a PSN exclusive.

Get ready to solve a unique puzzle-based investigation that will immerse you in a noir world. Red Johnson, one of the best private investigators in Metropolis City has recently gained a fame that turns out to be deadly. A price on his head and a brother that has been abducted will force him to give the best of himself. To sort out this situation, you will need to use you wit, your persuasion skills and even your fists sometimes.

Double Dragon: Neon and Red Johnson’s Chronicles: One Against All are both available to download now for 800 Microsoft Points ($10) apiece.
