Final Fight: Double Impact smashes its way onto Xbox Live and PlayStation Network this week.  Both Xbox 360 and PS3 owners have the chance to replay two of the most classic fighting games of all time in one fantastic package.

Final Fight: Double Impact screenshots can be seen here.

Final Fight: Double Impact for Xbox 360 and PS3 features several display options, including HD.  There will also be online leaderboards, multiplayer, achievements, and trophies.  Several extras such as original game art and videos are also included.

First up in this duo of Capcom classics is Final Fight, where players follow the heart-pounding adventures of Cody, Guy, and Haggar – three heroes fighting their way across crime-ridden Metro City in hopes of saving Haggar’s daughter from the evil clutches of Mad Gear. There are 6 stages filled with perilous challenges. The only hope for justice is the unique fighting techniques mastered by each character. What better way to celebrate to the inclusion of Cody and Guy in Super Street Fighter IV® than to take a trip down memory lane and experience the allure of Final Fight beat’em-up insanity all over again.

In Magic Sword users will take on the role of the “hero,” a brave warrior who bears the daunting responsibility of cleansing evil forces from an ancient tower. As a consequence of his actions, he will inevitably meet the source of this scourge upon humanity – the dark lord Drokmar. But fear not, the hero is accompanied by eight allies who will lend their assistance through-out the game. All of them bring specific skills and talents to contribute to the fight. It’s an amazing side-scrolling action illustrated in classic fantasy stylings, making a perfect pairing with Final Fight.

Gamers from around Boston, Massachusetts can download Final Fight: Double Impact on Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360 for 800 Microsoft Points. Final Fight: Double Impact will be on the PlayStation Network for $9.99 USD on Thursday April 15th.
