I know this is gonna come off like a troll but I don`t care,
I always thought Dragons Lair sucked, by todays standards it would be called an interactive video
and marketed to children. It wasn`t any more of an arcade game than that one where you shock
yourself while smoke pours outta uncle Fester`s ears. It was a complete waste of quarters.
Arcades are dead! And someone should take a chainsaw to that machine and put it outta it`s misery.
Consider how many teenager allowances it absorbed, that money could have been spent on useful
stuff like drugs and beer or acne ointments.
Also at least there was some kinda decent program behind games like Pac-Man, Galaxian, ...
Even if the AI wasn`t the greatest you can still respect what the programmers were working with
at the time.
I can`t imagine that Dragons Lair consisted of much more than a shitload of rom packed with
video and a very simple little routine. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.
