Space Ace, another, better-known Bluth-animated FMV classic is headed to the platform -- a game that, unlike
Heavy Rain,
is Dragon's Lair. This time, EA Play is publishing the 1983 Cinematronics arcade game, with an expected December release date. We'll get to watch Dirk the Daring die
over and over again in a convenient portable format!
Dragon's Lair features both an "arcade mode" with the game as originally presented, and a "home mode" with extra scenes not used in the coin-op version. Our gallery features some new screens of the iPhone version, which look exactly like the game looked in 1983. Which is kind of the point.
There's supposedly a
DSiWare version on the way as well, though EA doesn't seem to be involved with that one.
