Hehe, thats exactly the article i was talking about, thanks for posting it Celine, brings back great memories.
Those art sketches look just as shit as the crap on early home computer software :lol: Right up the Jag's alley then. Yakumo
That concept art for Hosenose and Booger is a riot:lol: They couldn't have been serious. Is that a pile of shit on the right there, grinning at you?
The Game.com had the ideas to blow away any other hand held at the time. Killer games, Internet and touch screen. Too bad it as just thrown together.
Ideas aren't worth much if you don't have the hardware for them. Especially the portable Internet thing couldn't really be done in 1997 with a cheap handheld console.
That's what I mean. If this console was thought through it could have been so much better. I know cost would have been an issue but the Game.com could have been so much better than it was. The crappy screen is proof of that. In 1997 there were much better screen on the market. Even the original GameBoy screen had less blur. Yakumo

Asking to the Sega boys around here. Some months ago I've read an article in a french mag about Baldur's Gate and Dark Eyes on Dreamcast. The photo in the article was the following: I've played BG many moons ago and I can't remember that scene or the character sprite so I searched for any image about Dark Eyes to confirm its origin but I couldn't find anything. Any idea ?
What a mystery ( and low quality image ) Some weeks ago an user on these boards asked for infos about The Horde for Snes but I forgot it and I can't find the thread now. Here it is: I've heard they were trying to implement FMV in the Snes version too. Not sure how true it is though. Speaking of Snes ports that never happened there is also In The Hunt by Irem:
