Do you mean Blues Brothers or Prince of Persia? But omg, yea. Flashback was crazy hard. I don't think I ever managed to get past the first 3 screens! But I really liked the intro video. :roll:


Flashback was an Excellent game. I think it was the first game to use voxels, or was there a prequel? The graphics were years ahead of the technology. I also never finished the game.

:laugh: I don't think anyone ever finished Flashback. Man that would be an awesome game to remake with todays graphics. Maybe a 2D cell shaded version?

Gorillas on DOS 5, didn't really start gaming till i had Wolf 3D.
My dad made a menu thing in DOS so I didn't have to type everything when i was like 5.

Any1 else remember this?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorillas_(computer_game)

I had to look up the name cause I couldn't remember.
