Don't know how you guys will feel about this...check it out here

manicx · 02 December 2003, 08:35

It's a hack of the original. Nothing new...

rattus · 02 December 2003, 08:46

aha, xRick. been ported everywhere I'm afraid; Linux, Dreamcast, Gamecube, PS2, Xbox, GP32 etc...

Drake1009 · 02 December 2003, 11:31

I believe it's also quite available on windows.

Antiriad · 02 December 2003, 11:40

yes i remember some idiot at the Back In Time Live C64 show convinced his phone had an Amiga emulator because he was playing Rick Dangerous on it idiot

Hahaha some idiot indeed

Drake1009 · 02 December 2003, 16:41

Didn't you tell him he at best had a speccy emulator (I believe rick was on the speccy too)

Antiriad · 02 December 2003, 21:12

ah what was the point...

even tho he was one of the organisers of the event he obviously had no idea of how limited the capabilities of his phone were...

besides, the guy liked Babylon 5 after series 1 - says it all really

/looks around nervously for reprisal from Jambo

Its a good port, the game is slowish when there is more than one character on screen
For instance at the start with the boulder and the aztec dude
When there gone its all good until the next room of ppl
The second versiom is already out too

I say more of these games for the xbox
Nothing like getting an xbox and using it for old classic such as this

Drake1009 · 02 December 2003, 21:51

I sure hope you're talking about the cellphone version Ash and not the Xbox version.

Ash · 02 December 2003, 22:01

I was talking about xRick for the xbox and
- How I love it so
- There is a second release
- Wish there were more games like it converted to the xbox
xRick Xbox Site

Don't quite understand the point of this though. I presume it has been done just because it can be done.

You can emulate an Amiga on an XBOX pretty well and Rick Dangerous runs perfectly on it - without any slowdown!

Did you know, that X-BOX II has a Motorola G5 CPU?
I wait for new games ported from X-BOX to Pegasos (or AmigaOne)

Similarity in CPU does not a port make.

The Gamecube has a G3 CPU for example

Also keep in mind that the xbox 2 was going to be non backwards compatible with xbox games
All this and more is likely to change and be speculated upon until its release ages from now

ah yes, I don't suppose that there was any connection between this and MS purchasing virtual PC, you suppose?

staticgerbil · 05 December 2003, 04:22

I had a bit of a look for the gba version and it's been cancelled. You can't download it from the site anymore. Oh well.

I got dangerous xmas though
