Another World be my pick for best retro intro.
Thanks for bringing back good memories. Although I mostly heard the intro over pc speaker.
I’m gonna throw The 7th Guest (1993) in here as a contender https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULiskaGXVsc
Another good one is Where In Space Is Carmen Sandiego (1993) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82erjbCVFXQ
And Mario is Missing! (also 1993??) with the famous “Weegee” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nF61x0XoKc
This made me think whatever happened to the Ultima series. I played some of the games growing up and now wondering whatever happened to the series since its been decades since anytbing. Apparently he sold the rights of the game to EA in like 1992… I can’t really find out why they didnt really create anything, why buy the rights and do nothing? Theres some terrible browser and mobile game attempts done near 2010 but not very good. I do see Richard is looking to take back the rights of the game. Apparently theres some loophole where he can do so only after 35 years so next year he could possibly get that back and he wants to create something new finally. I hope he reflected these past 30 years and realized he would never do better than Ultima and thats ok.
Edit here is a link to the story about him trying to reclaim the rights next year. I also read some more and EA didnt care about the series once it had a flop and thinks it will not make money today because nobody cares. They shut Richard out multiple times and I think they didnt like him either.
Maybe you are interested in this series by Majuular? He goes over quite a bit of the history alongside the story of the games!
Thanks! I am interested. I knew a few things but gaurentee I don’t know a lot about it other than playing about half of the games while growing up.
I’ve never even played them, but I love some gaming history! His videos are just well made, and his voice is perfect for me to go to sleep to at night! haha :-]
That would be MechWarrior 2.
Damn right.
