In that case, the control options on the CD-i probably make it the best version ... even w/out the flying levels. The 3DO version doesn't support the mouse sadly, which makes the game border on unplayable. :cry: I'm even more curious to try out the CD-i port now, as I've never been able to advance v...

Wow, and a new one at that. I'd be curious to know what you think of it. Especially if you ever get Creature Shock. :wink:

You were told correctly. :wink:

I have yet to play the CD-i port but, from what I understand, it is not a complete version since it is missing the flying levels.

The Sega Saturn has a "special edition" of the game, though I'm not sure what differences there may be.

Such a hideous design flaw ... imho, it is killing what remains of the CD-i fan scene.

:P Ha ha. Funny! (Kinda depressing, but still funny)

Is the timekeeper dead, or do you just not play it anymore?

Cool looking controller, very similar to the Sega Genesis one it seems. Are those turbo switches on top? If so, what are some games that make good use of them?

How does this controller compare to the more standard 3 button one. I'm really curious to hear others opinions.

Ha ha! That looks funny. :P

The choices remind me of those old Choose your own Adventure books I read when I was a kid.

A shame your disc is scratched, I'd love to have seem the video.

I haven't played Dimo's Quest yet, but I did watch a Youtube vid on it and it seems like a cute game. Has a look that (sorta) reminds me of the Lynx game Chip's Challenge. I read the review on Bas's site and it's likened to Chips Challenge very much. From what I can tell, it only has a fraction of ...

Where is your CD-i hooked up?

Mine is in my living room ... one of only a handful of systems to make the cut. The reason I guess is (even though I love my gameroom) I spend more time in the living room. And I want the systems I enjoy the most to be where I am the most. I also think it is an interesting enough system to show off ...

By the way Trev, if you ever see another legit controller out there, pass it my way! :lol: I'm having to get mine from the UK, where (I'm guessing) they are more common. I rarely if ever see them around here on Ebay. And they seem to command prices that modern controllers would get. But I'll keep m...

Ok, thanks.


I just was watching some youtube footage of Whack a Bubble. Couldn't find any for the Lost Ride though.
