that is so very very awesome!
Codemasters need to go back to their roots with a new Dizzy game- ROBODIZZY - part egg, part machine, all yolk!

I used to love Dizzy games.
Played them on my green-screen Amstrad CPC 464 64K.
Downloaded them all recently and played them all again in COLOUR!

har har you pauper
I had the Amstrad 6128!
But it was shite anyway, in retrospect.. Anyone remember those dodgy consoles that Amstrad released? They bombed really badly

I think as I got older
I was allowed one of those big boxes which allowed you to plug the Amstrad into a telly and make it colour. But tellies were expensive, so I wasn't allowed to buy one for the computer.
Disks (3", naturally) were too much, though. I used cassettes, like all the cool people.

Damn right
Kids these days, they never had to wait 15 minutes for a game to load and listen intently to metallic screeching to check you've got the volume right!

If I recall correctly,
3" disks were an absolute pain in the arse to find after a few years, and became corrupted at the drop of a hat.

Gah!
"This is test artwork produced by Blitz Games to see how Dizzy would make the move to a brand new 3D world.

How compaines like activision are happy to can really promising games that are in production, and keep "Spyro the Dragon" going, yet classic franchises like dizzy sit gathering dust baffles me.
What I want is a new turrican game.

what make you certain a new dizzy game would be any good?
it WAS good... but what makes you think that 9th generation games hardware is what dizzy has been crying out for?

because...
...my mind is clouded with nostalgia, and I most likely wrongly think that modern games developers can match my said notalgic sentiment. I secretly know that any remake would seriously damage my already fragile mind

that's okay then
... I'm sure there must be a games franchise of old which has made it onto the current systems well... Metal Gear (was a NES game...) erm...
Burnout?

tomb raider (the new one due out looks quite good)
Alone in the dark (even though recent offerings have been shit)
I'm not sure if they are making another Gauntlet, but I wouldnt put it past them
Doom
Wolfenstein (i think there is a new one of those due out soonish)
Mario
Sonic

Nope,
that's only a CG to see if people would like one. Judging from that video, I'd rather they let him rest.
2D downloadable Dizzy games with nice graphics on PSN and XBLA - that's the place for Dizzy these days.

I think
it captures the way that a pitched battle ebs and flows backwards and forwards; first one side gaining the upper hand, then the otherside rallying and pushing back again.
