    Isn't it about time someone made a really crap real-time 3d sequel to this?

    Pretty much, only without the 'really crap' part. If Prince of Persia rocked as it does in 3d so should perhaps The Lost Vikings.

    The sequel, having not been made by the Blizzard people (as far as I remember) was lacklustre. The graphics were 3d pre-rendered, but the resolution was downright deplorable, I thought, for the year it came out in... It was ultimately too fuzzy and had less detail than its predecessor... and whereas I remember all the Lost Vikings levels more or less sortof in order, I hardly remember anything from Norse by Norse-West... well, there was a dragon of some sort and a warewolf that joined the band of three from time to time... and uh... there was an ice level... in the StarWars universe...

    Yeah but if the scare factor is merely /part/ of a good game - like doom - then its a really good extra factor. Plus the whole point of HP Lovecrat is to wet yourself and run away... the character will spack out and fail to aim properly forcing the player to play a character who is scared and going insane rather than trying to force them to feel scared.... anyways hopefully that is also combined with a good game ¬

    Well, let me paraphrase: gratuitously scary movies/games don't impress me.

    The first time I played teh (sic) original DOOM sixty-five years ago when I was very wee, I didn't have a soundblaster. I thought the game was cool, if a little boring (I would get into Duke Nukem 3D a lot more shortly thereafter)... and then one day, I turned it on on my uncle's computer that had a soundblaster and was scared shitless during the demo that played in the background behind the main menu.... I very distinctly remember the screams and shotgun blasts and noise... I don't think I've played the game on a soundblasterful machine ever afterwards...

    'Scary' games and movies bore me, though.

    The buttons are from the default board, I was trying to find some new ones earlier today to no avail.

    And I am doing further stuff to the board as we speak...

    And I have forgotten to mention to the powers that be that you found out about this place... didn't have the time to worry about that, sorry.

    And thanks for liking my... thing.... article... yeah...
