Those yearning for the days of classic arcade action will love Final Fight: Double Impact.The graphics may lack some of the 3D polish we've come to expect, but if you're in the mood for some side-scrolling retro pummelling, this will be exactly what you need.

The classic comes to the PlayStation Network in all its former glory, with Cody, Guy and Haggar battling their way across Metro City to save Haggar’s daughter. There are six stages, during which you take on all that the crime-ridden city has to offer.

The second part of the release is Magic Sword, where users will take on the role of a warrior known as The Brave One, battling against dark forces and the dark lord Drokmar. While it can look a bit tired around the edges at time, there is a real nostalgia value in the title. Controls have been kept pleasingly simple, and while it's an older title, you aren't limited to solo playing, with co-op play included.
