What are some decent games for the CD-i?

Atlantis really interests me. I love a good Wolfenstein clone. Hell, I love a half-assed Wolfenstein clone. From the few screenshots I've seen and what I think is a short YouTube clip, that's at least what it looks like. I'd really like to find a copy of this and try it out for myself.

It looks like a bunch of games I am looking for appeared on eBay today.. Unfortunately, I still haven't received my CD-i. It's been three weeks now. No response from the seller in at least a week (he first gave me a sob story which I gave him the benefit of the doubt on, said it was going to ship last weekend, haven't heard from him since). Tried opening an eBay case and despite it being three weeks they say I have to wait another ten days. Nice.

That's a pity Austin, I hope you will receive it soon!
I'd definitely try to get Creature Shock, which was my favourite experience on CD-i.

Does Creature Shock use the DVC? I have tried it on other platforms (3DO and Saturn to be specific) and thought it was interesting, but I admit I got fairly lost in the first FMV/adventure area and never made it very far at all!

Creature Shock needs the DVC (link)

If you have the 3DO & Sat versions of Creature Shock I say don't bother w/the CD-i version. I think CS is a poor game on any platform, but if the CD-i port is incomplete what point is there outside of trying to get a full collection?

I don't have them (I have just played them in the past), but I see what you are saying.. On the other hand though, I am assuming that the video quality is much better in the CD-i version thanks to the DVC. I also didn't care for the first space shooter segment in the other versions (I mean, it was okay, but I could do without it), so.. I don't know. If it pops up mega-cheap, maybe I'll give it a go just for the sake of being able to say I've played most of the versions of Creature Shock that are available.

Yay.. I received a refund from eBay on my 550 that never arrived...

Well, at least I have some nice games that I picked up through that whole ordeal. At least I'd like to think they are nice, as you guys recommended most of them.

--Litl' Devil, 7th Guest, Lucky Luke, Steel Machine, Alien Gate, Inca, Kether, Tetris, Lemmings, Escape From Cyber City, Dragon's Lair, Space Ace, Dimo's Quest, and a few other misc titles. I also worked up a trade with someone here and will eventually be receiving Golden Oldies Volume I, Mutant Rampage Bodyslam, Mega Maze and Who Shot Johnny Rock?

So.. yeeaaahhh..

I have a nice stack I can just stare at for now.
