The problem with Dragon's Lair is that thanks
to the beautiful Don Bluth animation it was always more fun to watch someone
else play it than actually do so yourself. The game arrives on the Mega-CD
and the video is full screen, but the reduced colour level seem to take away
that certain something that made Dragon's Lair so special. CD access times
are very slightly slow, but not enough to impede gameplay as by the time the
next clip is needed the decision has already been made - you survived or you
didn't. If you loved the laserdisc in the arcade it's all here - it's just
not quite the same, and with nothing extra to keep you coming back for more once
you've seen the end. If you've never played Dragon's Lair, this title is
an excellent piece of gaming history, and the MCD version is much easier than
picking up a laserdisc - hunt one down. |
