That shot of the lion king on the thrown looks so good, even today.

Yeah, and that's after the video was processed twice (once to capture, once on YouTube) AND it's only 320x200 resolution! Imagine the kind of rich and detailed 2-D game they could make with today's systems... but no, everything is boxy polygony 3D crap.

Greatest games ever made. R.I.P Sierra Online

Indeed. They just don't make Adventure Games like they used to...or at all.

A 3-D version would work if it didn't go for the uber-realistic look every single friggin game apparently has to be nowadays. What's really sad, though, is that the Wii is perfect for Adventure Games. Finally, a console comes along that fits the genre perfectly, but no one has tried anything yet...With the exception of Zack and Wiki.

Ah I remember that blue enemy at the end of this vid, one of the more difficult fights in the game! Sierra games were the BEST!!!!

Seriously, I need to find another copy of the one through four collection--I'm feeling so nostalgic right now!! The third was the first one I was introduced to, and I remember finding the 3rd of the four original floppy disks for this game a year or so ago.

[FlailingDutchman]

Even after all these years, that trademark theme music still gives me little chills of nostalgia! :D

[Elround4]

Agreed the don't make them like the used to (plus I am relatively as old as the first one--1989). ^_^
