It's actually about 20 hours of game play if not more.

You have to complete the game in 2 Player Co-Op on the hardest setting with friendly fire on... This could take a few repeat attempts of some stages and some practice trying not to kill each other.

There's A LOT of grinding involved as well if you intend to max out all of your abilities. I know I sank at least 35 hours in to the Xbox 360 version netting all the achievements and I beat the full game 4 or 5 times. Three of those playthrough's were solo and the other one or two were in co-op.

Once you memorize the game the time it takes you to complete it will diminish. I could see someone who knows the game inside and out getting all the achievements in less than 25 hours... but there's still the boring grind of Stage 2 for Mithril and Stage 5 for money.

It's a great game if you're a fan of Double Dragon and have played all of it's iterations... If you're someone who's been born in the past 15-20 years... you're probably just not going to understand how awesome it really is. :)

Amen!

I don't understand this "how long is the game... It's only 2 hours long... it only has 4 levels" etc. There's games released 20+ years ago with only 4 or 5 levels (shmups specifically) that i STILL play to this day.

When a game has great gameplay, regardless of length, you're going to replay it. That's the problem with "modern" games... they tell a story and then that is that.
