[size=240]Double Dragon - Dead Or Alive (Level 1)[/size]
[size=180]Consoles[/size]
This is the iconic music from the first level of Double Dragon, one of the greatest scrolling beat 'em ups of all time. It was converted to a number of platforms and here we compare the music from the console versions. For a comparison to the arcade game simply open the retro player and have a listen!

Mega Drive has the best music. The Lynx has a very good rendition as well.Â
