Dragon's Lair remastered into high-def
Anyone around the early laserdisc scene has to remember Dragon's Lair. The game shipped with the Pioneer LD-V1000 and became an instant classic. The game wasn't as immersive as many people wanted and only offered the player a few options on how to control Dirk the Daring but even still, it was the first game to offer live motion graphics way back in '83. Well, the game is getting remastered to high-def by Digital Leisure and will be re-released on PC DVD complete with 5.1 surround sound. The game should be ready by the holiday season.

I was addicted to this game as a kid and played it through multiple times. I can't wait to play it on the 110" screen!

I think you'll find that his name is Dirk the Daring, not Dirk the DarLing.

I had this game on the xbox 4 years ago and it was 1080i with 5.1 suround. It was the 1st hd game on the xbox.

60 Dollars seems a little extreme?
