cimerians Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I haven't bought a downloaded game in a while but this may make me do it. Just so I can watch it without having to pop in a DVD etc. At least I hope it has a watch feature cause I'm not that good at Dragon's Lair but I love it. http://www.qj.net/qjnet/playstation-3/dragons-lair-coming-to-psn.html I wonder what the trophies will be?

HammR25 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I wonder what they're going to charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 I know....Crazy Taxi HD and Prince of Persia the Sands of time HD are up for download but I dont want to pay 15 bucks for them. I think Crazy Taxi is 10 bucks though. Dragons Lair would be tempting at 15 bucks if its got trophies and other features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Helmet Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I have the Wii version that comes with Dragon's Lair, Dragon's Lair 2, and Space Ace. It's nice to watch through the games, and play them a couple of times...but in the end they're still the same old games...and not all that fun really. Dragon's Lair 2 is REALLY hard IMHO. I think $10 is a good price for these as a download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raskar42 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 anybody remember time traveler? Time Traveler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 anybody remember time traveler? Time Traveler Wow...I remember that. I saw it in an arcade when I was younger and every time I would go there nobody was playing it. I used to play this laserdisc game called MACH 3 which was an air combat game, it wasnt all that bad. I also remember a cheezy NFL football game that used real footage of the Raiders and Chiefs if I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+thanatos Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I'll just whip out the old Jaguar CD, or load up the old DOS version I have, rather than paying for it yet again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic George 2K3 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I'd want to get Dragon's Lair Trilogy for the Wii or even Dragon's Lair Blu-Ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammR25 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 It's on PSN now and it's $10.00. It has a watch feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicGMR Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 anybody remember time traveler? Time Traveler My favorite was Cliff Hanger. Loved the game but you couldn't get near it unless you showed up at Aladdin's Castle when they first opened in the morning. Very popular around here. I'd possibly pay $10 for Dragon's Lair but I don't think I would go over that... and I own the 20th Anniversary DVD set already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ite Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 anybody remember time traveler? Time Traveler Yeah I remember playing that when I was young it was pretty cool and I thought of or seen anything about this game since until tonight after buying Dragon's Lair. Now I see it mentioned here as well. Funny stuff. So yeah I bought Dragon's Lair for PSN tonight and it was pretty cool. I remembered it in the arcades when I was little and just HAD to have it. It's cool being able to play this again after all these years and it has alot of trophies so it will keep u busy for awhile. It also lets you just watch the movie and it's HD so that is a awesome feature in itself. I think it was worth the money. Better than spending 10 bucks on booze and pissing it away lol.

moycon Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 My favorite was Cliff Hanger. Loved the game but you couldn't get near it unless you showed up at Aladdin's Castle when they first opened in the morning. Very popular around here. Loved that game as a kid. Year later I got the actual movie Lupin III the game was pieced together from on VHS, still have it to this day and I could pick out the scenes used for the game (although the dialog was way different. As for Dragons Lair, I already have the Blu Ray version of the game. That pretty much the definitive edition right now in my opinion. I'll pass on the PSN download. Would like to see some of the older laser games make their way to current consoles in HD. One of my favorites was COBRA COMMAND. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis V Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I haven't bought a downloaded game in a while but this may make me do it.

I actually bought that game for my ipod on sale for .99 cents. Identical to the arcade that I played back in '83. Don Bluth did the animation for that. Space Ace, where are you?

ComputerSpaceFan Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) If you're not too good at the game don't expect any trophies, they are all for 'completing' the game on different settings. Otherwise I also would have got it (never got to Synge even back in the day) Edited January 8, 2011 by ComputerSpaceFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegamezmaster Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) I've got it for the Wii and love it. It has so many features. Ah the memories! Edited January 15, 2011 by thegamezmaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammR25 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Space Ace came out today. It's also $10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Interesting. How is the video quality of these titles? I have the Dragons Lair game on Blu-Ray but it's been years since I've played Space Ace. They do have it on Blu-Ray as well, but it's almost $40! Just curious how much better the $40 version looks compared to the $10 one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious how much better the $40 version looks compared to the $10 one. I saw a review on TV where they said it looks lower quality than the BluRay release. The review show is from Canada and called Reviews on the Run. I believe they reviewed the PSN version of DL last week (mid-February). They made specific comments that the clarity of the video is not as good as they've seen on the 20th Anniversary DVD set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elw00d Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I downloaded the wallpaper for Space Ace yesterday and I was wondering when it was coming out. I have been debating whether I would get DL and now I have to do the same for Space Ace. I was never good at either, I never had enough money to learn the moves. It was dang expensive at the arcade I had the infrequent pleasure to visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have the PSN version of course. The PSN version for me is by far the best quality or equal quality to the blu ray version. It takes me 5 minutes to pop in the blue ray take it out and load up the downloaded version and compare and I cannot see a difference. If there is I cant tell and I'm running full 1080P. I have them all and I prefer the PSN version mainly due to the better controls, trophies and you don't have to pop in a disc to play. Its a no brainer. Why on earth anyone would not want these downloadable versions is beyond me. (other than paying for more copies of these games yet again!) Downloaded Space Ace. Now I'm done forever (unless the bastards make 3D versions etc LOL). No more physical media ever again for Dragons Lair and Space Ace. Im done for a long time of buying these games again.

Thanks cimerians. Looks like I'll be downloading Space Ace in a few minutes!! Edit : Game is a lot like I remember it, except I don't recall the awful voice acting and disjointed conversations. I did manage to get through the game on cadet on 5 lives using the move guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is the PS thread, but I'm curious if you have tried the recently released Wii version of Dragons Lair/Space Ace? I've read both good & bad comments on the release and was wondering what your thoughts were on it (if you've tried it). And I totally understand your reasoning about downloading the games. But for myself, I still prefer my games on media and am sort of torn on whether to get the Blu-ray version or Wii version. Mendon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL...yeah the disjointed conversations are brutal. Even worse on Dragon's Lair II where you can barely tell what the characters are saying other than "OW!" or "Ugh!".

But for myself, I still prefer my games on media and am sort of torn on whether to get the Blu-ray version or Wii version. Mendon I should just get this out of the way. I'm a Dragons Lair\Space Ace freak so I've owned pretty much every version including the Sega CD and DOS garbage of yesteryear. The Wii version is fantastic (I have that too). Its 480P but it still looks just as great as the PS3 games\Blu ray but obviously not as crisp on an LCD which I play my games on. I cant really tell any sort of obvious worse quality in the Wii version which means they really did an amazing job on all these games for every system. (Unlike the old days when you can tell) I was going to play through the Wii versions until PSN released Dragons Lair. They are all excellent. (The 12th anniversary, the blu-ray version, the Wii, the PSN downloads). My biggest gripe is that I dont want to have to get up to get a CD just to play Dragons Lair (or watch it). I'm happy with a download copy since I own so many versions of the game and it looks good too (for me at least). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After checking out Amazon, I believe I'll be going for the Wii version as getting the three titles on Blu-ray would set me back $125!! OUCH!! One last question: Did you play Dragon's Lair 3D: Return to the Lair? If so, how was it? Mendon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
