The hardcore fighting fans over at shoryuken.com are excited about the upcoming Final Fight: Double Impact because:

1) Final Fight and Magic Sword are awesome games.

2) The games feature some really impressive online tech in the form of GGPO

What’s GGPO? And why are they so excited about it? GGPO is actually a netcode system designed specifically to handle fighting games by Shoryuken’s own Tony “Ponder” Cannon. You can read more about it here in a previous blog post by Seth.
