Commodore 64 version
A great port of a mediocre arcade game
The Good
It has most things that the arcade version has to offer, and implemented in a very functional way.
The controls are very responsive, and everything moves swiftly!
It has the 2 player co-op mode!
The graphics in the cutscenes can be demoscene-level of impressive. During gameplay, it's not so nice, but it works.
The Bad
One button Atari-style joystick controls. Not very comfortable, but manageable.
There is no in-game music.
The fact that it's a port of Double Dragon 3...
The Bottom Line
Golden Axe is a much better beat-em-up than DD3. But this C64 port of DD3 is a light years better game than that of GA.
