I've been thinking abotu getting this game since it came out as it sounded pretty cool to me, but I checked www.gamerankings.com and it got so-so reviews. I'm sure that there are some others DPers who have this game, so could you clue me to as if it's worth it?

if your a big Dragon's Lair fan you probably would have already gotten it...if your interested, you might as well, but there are a lot of other better ways to spend your money...

Well, the thing is, it's $10 new with ~85 cent shipping.

I had it for the XBox. For years (since 1983 actually) I'd dreamed of actually "playing" as Dirk the Daring in a castle as vivid as the original. Dragon's Lair 3D fulfillls that dream, albeit at the expense of good control/camera angles. If you have any interest in "playing the cartoon" so-top-speak, you should buy it, particularly as cheap as it is now. However, be prepared to run into some frustration over the techincal faults of the game.

I am a huge Dragons Lair fan. So I got this game at launch. Although its fun it doesnt really follow the series. This game is very free roaming and you have to move around, its not one move at a sequence. It still follows the same gameplay with some more free movement. I must say I enjoyed it, even though it was different. I thought the game was lots of fun, and recommend it to anyone.

OK, I think I may grab it now--I liked the look of the original and I liked the idea, but I didn't like the fact that you had to memorize patterns for all of the rooms.
