I just saw a copy of Zorro: A Cinematic Action Adventure today for PC in GoodWill for PC. It was sealed and came in a rather large box. I was considering picking it up cuz it looked pretty cool what with the sidescrolling gameplay and cinematic cutscenes. Was priced at 7 bucks though so I decided to pass. Anyone know if I should go back for this, either based on value/rarity, or gameplay?

The oddest thing I thought about it was that the box listed it as a game for IBM computers, and tried to imply that it was ONLY for IBM computers. This is just marketing and not an actuality right? I assumed it was like Magnavox trying to get you to buy one of their TVs to use the Odyssey on.

I don't know specifically when this game came out, but there was a good bit of time when 'IBM computer' was sort of a generic term. Kind of like how people say 'Kleenex' for any type of facial tissue. I guess at that time it likely meant DOS, instead of Apple, Coleco, etc.

Oh gotcha. I think the box said '95 if I remember correctly.

This? (http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/zorro)

It might look cool, but those reviews suggest otherwise...
