Dragon's Lair on X-box

aka pseudonym writes "Remember the game Dragon's Lair, the laserdisc based game from the 80's? Well, it is now out for the X-box and other game systems. You can check it out at www.dragonslair3d.com. This looks like the first game that supports the HDTV 1080i resoloution the X-box is capable of. There is a review of the game here. A related slashdot link is here. Aaahhh memories, at least now I don't have to drop a full dollar into the machine every time I want to play this addictive game."

How about gameplay?

[Zayin]

So, is the gameplay anything like the previous Dragon's Lair games? IIRC it goes something like this:

space - up - right - left - DOH!
space - up - right - right - up - DOH!
space - up - right - right - space - left - DOH!
space - up - right - right - space - right - down etc...

Pretty exciting stuff!

I sucked at this game

I remember playing this game at software etc when I was young. (before that sofware etc was turned into the software section of a barnes and noble)

It started in front of a bridge, and everytime I tried to cross the bridge, a tentacle came up and killed my character. I never got farther than that, no matter what I did, the tentacle killed me.

I had a friend who could play through the whole game.

But I always got killed on the damn bridge.

Stupid game.

That's all good, G. Princess Daphne is an LA 10, and has all kinds of time for the listless, friendless loser who really knows how to use his joy stick.

How I played Dragon's Lair at the arcade:

Put 50c in slot.
Move joystick.
Die.
Repeat x 3.
Give up.
Go play Tron for an hour on one quarter.
