Mac Dog is an amazing game ! Really good on cdi, and for Dragon's Lair / Space Ace on cdi, you can't go wrong  :) The video quality is the best one ( before the DVD release of course).
There is only one bad thing 'bout these cdi releases : there is no sound when you're making a move... so it sometime difficult to know what you are doing, what's wrong, what's good...  :?
I hope you'll win the games  :P
If you want to try Dragon's lair or Space Ace, I strongly suggest you to get the 20th anniversary edition on CD-Rom... few bucks on the bay.... very good... not 100% arcade accurate, but you'll able to show and play the games in a really good condition  :wink:
...and If you really want it 'Arcade Accurate', I can help you to emulate it with Daphne Emulator... or maybe you can buy a Dragon's Lair cab for your wonderfull game room too  :roll:  :wink:  :wink:  :wink:

:D i was finally able to score a cd-i system....

got it on ebay (a bit expensive  :? ) but the good thing is, it's in perfect condition AND IT AS THE GUN  :D

this system is from magnavox, a little more compact compare to the original phillips cd-i.



it came with 20 games, but here are the 4 most important...



i love the game mad dog....
the game play is not that easy but very fun...
actually i play the arcade game once  :) a long time ago at a fairground .








7 guest is also a cool game....

any cd-i collector here ?

Yep,since I collect all consoles,a CDI was very easy to buy and very cheap,because I live in the Neterlands. 8)
I have about 30 games for it.
Be sure to get BRAINDEAD 13 from READYSOFT,plays the same way as Dragon's lair!  :D

Old topic revival.  New to this board and thought I would bump this.  I'm a cd-i collector as well.  I remember watching the infomercials late at night and wishing I could afford one.  Years later I managed to purchase one with a few games off the bay.  7th Guest was the big reason I purchased a cd-i.  I love the game on the pc and it is almost perfect on the cd-i.  Just the thrill of watching 7th guest being played on a big screen tv is really nice. I've yet to snag a copy of Mad Dog McCree and Dragons Lair, but I'm on the look out. Other games I recommend are: Voyeur and Burn:Cycle

Thanks for the suggestion Ghost Soldier  :-*

I didn't have the chance to own a CDi system back in The Days... But I got one few years ago in order to test Dragon's Lair & Space Ace of course   :)

...And a I've discovered an interesting game : Kether  :-*  :arrow:



It reminds me the game 'Starblade' : you're flying in a pre-calculated path in 3D.
...but Starblade is far better of course  ;D

See this Kether Attract Mode Video, and go to the end of the video for some 'in game' sequences of Kether  :)

I may not be in the right place, but I was wondering if I could get some help.  I have a MacBook Pro OS X version 10.4.11 and I recently purchased a 3DO cd of Dragon's Lair that runs on a Mac.  However, when I load he CD it says it can't be played on this computer.  I was wondering if there is a tool or an emulator I can download to be able to play this.  Any ideas?

There is an emulator out  there...

you need the biosfile to run it, but thats foundable on the net too.

I've had a CD-i in the past, i can look if i still have my disks, if i found them, they are available since i dont have the cd-i player anymore

as far as i remember, i have:

Zelda
Hotel mario
Kether
Voyeur
7th guest
tetris
4 in a row
sargons chess
Lemmings

and a few i dont recall

i will post what i have here if i found them (need to look in old boxes in my attic.....)
