I review LOTUS THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE (aka LOTUS 3) for MSDOS on the PC.

Requires at least an 80386 with 1mb of ram :P

  • whar computer do you have? I ran this game on a 386dx 40 MHz with 4 mb ram an 512kb video card...in your video graphic is amazing...(my video card is realteck)

  • was a lot slower on the 386, the difference in speed between the 386 and 486 versions of this game is pretty impressive...

  • omg i loved this game as a kid...a friend of mine had removed the protection and we used to play is crazy!! does anyone still have this game? reply to this message to let me know....thanks yo!

  • well yes i do if you mean the pc version

  • for some weird reason LOTUS 3 on the pc was just LOTUS - and im sure my brother will agree with me, but in comparison to the amigas lotus 3 (THE SAME GAME) the music is MILES better on the amiga - and what gets me is whats with the purple car on the dos version - lotus the eintire series was always based on the red lotus - i dont get that! and its not a dos limitation, this was running on vga 256 colours! someone lemme know about that1

  • Because PC's of the era, especially when running DOS applications, performed nearly all graphics operations on the CPU (not to mention IO and most digital sound effects). The Amiga, on the other hand, had powerful dedicated IC's just for graphics and sound. In fact the Amiga had two for graphics (Agnus - a full coprocessor and - Denise). That this game ran as well as it did on a 386 is a testament to the hard work of the devs and hand coded assembler.

  • adlib music... SUCKS!!! AMIGA ROCKS

  • What the FUCK was the goodbye at the end? If it's your own personal thing, i suggest you quit it, creepiest thing ever.

  • @paulisthebest3uk Well, the Genesis ports ( LOTUS TURBO CHALLENGE and LOTUS II RECS) were the same red Lotus Esprit as the main car, but as far as I know, car colours could not be changeable.

    And I do agree the AMIGA version was superior. On one side you had PC and Genesis, on the other side you had AMIGA and SNES. It was like that back then.

  • This is the best racing game ever created.

  • thank's a lot...

  • Why did it require a 386 on the PC?

    It run perfectly well on a 68000 7mhz on the Amiga.

  • Really! I first played it in school in 1998 as well! Great fun it really was! :D

    9/10

  • i played this game back on scool in 1998
