3.0 out of 5 stars
Just to point out...,
This review is from: Dragon's Lair [HD DVD] (HD DVD)
I don't own this version, but I am a fan of Dragon's Lair. I just want to point out to the people reviewing this as a Blu-Ray or DVD, that this is the HD-DVD version, which is a different type of disc and a whole other kettle of fish. If you bought this version and went and stuck it in your Blu-Ray or standard DVD system, then you should go and remove yourself from the gene-pool right now, as that's probably the reason it's not working properly.
The quality of gameplay is probably affected by the player you are using, as different players may produce different quality results for the same game, due to read and data transfer speeds. Some of you complain that the game has been edited like a bad Star Wars re-re-release, but have you tried changing the settings? From what I read, there are different difficulty settings and a Home and Arcade version. Try fiddling with those. This would probably be good on the Xbox 360 with an HD-DVD add-on, or on Blu-Ray with the PS3 as the game controller would be more like an actual game. You can get Arcade type controllers, if you're REALLY into Dragon's Lair.

This review is from: Dragon's Lair [HD DVD] (HD DVD)
I was so excited to hear there was a high definition version of Dragon's Lair. It looks fabulous. I don't remember the laser disc video quality much anymore. The video does look date but sharp. If there's a defect, it's somewhat grainy. But again, we're looking at 80s video.
I remember the gameplay more and this hd-dvd has serious branching issues. I know it's because of the way the designers structured it, but if you die, it randomly jumps to a different scene. the original game was basically trial and error like learning simon says. but this one jumps so randomly that you can't memorize the moves like in the original. the original was like building a story. you mess up, try a different move until you get it right, move on to the next scene and repeat. this one, you're constantly jumping so you can't memorize it properly. that said, it's still work owning just for the fact that it looks so goo.

This review is from: Dragon's Lair [HD DVD] (HD DVD)
The video quality is great, but for some reason I remember the game being more linear and far less random. For example for every wrong move you make (ie - death) you get sent to a random area of the castle, make two mistakes in a row and you really have no idea how far away you are from finishing. I don't regret purchasing it, but I can't see myself playing this for more than 5-10 minutes at a time.
I'm looking forward to Space Ace, a game I have spent considerably more time on back in the day.
