    Review : Another World 15th Anniversary Edition - PC

    That Amiga classic, Another World, makes a return for some serious, nostalgia laden PC gaming...
    Every step taken was filled with darkness, trepidation and uncertainty – a far cry from the game of the moment, Mario- the Italian plumber who lived in cutesy Mushroom Kingdom and spent his days throwing flower fireballs. Although not a roaring commercial success, Another World was greeted with much delight by its fans and has achieved cult status amongst them.
    Check out this Another World PC Review for more.

    Used to play this game on the Atari ST... it infuriated me.

    I guess I didn't have the skillz back then.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Great game, just rather difficult.

    And not enough "save" points. With multiple attempts needed on multiple occasions in each segment, it could get annoying quickly.
    At least I managed to get past the waterfall...
    And complete the last section, having used a code to get there.

    And the codes are the same as 15 years ago!
    939 3800 X2 | 2gig corsairXMS 3200C2
    1950XT | 500gig,320,200,160
    Plextor DVD burner | Yamaha CRW-F1 CD-drive
    Thermaltake Xaser 3 w 480W FSP | X-fi fatal1ty

    Camera setup: Canon 350D, Sigma 17-70 f2.8-4 macro, Canon 70-300IS, Sigma 20 1.8, Peleng 15mm fisheye
