Well the lowest Nintendo released Zelda game like there's the 3DO things and Yeah, whatever the fact, whatever the fuck you want to call that.

BillHOST
I'm Bill, and this is Thrak.
BillHOST
How are you doing, Thrak?
32 MINS LATER
ThrakHOST
That is the
BillHOST
most prog metal title ever.
ThrakHOST
So, well, actually, yeah, published by our good pals at EA, but developed by Key Game for the 3DO, released according to this January 1st, 1996.
GeorgeHOST
THQ announced lively financial results last week with rival Eidos is expected to post record-breaking profits tomorrow based on the success of its million-selling TV cash-in who wants to be a millionaire.
GeorgeHOST
Elsewhere, 3DO's profits were down thanks largely to failures on the Game Boy Color platform and the company is said to have laid off 20% of its staff as a result.
GeorgeHOST
According to MCV, who brought us news with a take-two announcement, the company is showing turnover of £131 million compared with £123 million the same quarter a year ago.
GeorgeHOST
while net profits are £7.8 million compared with £4.8 million a year ago.
Greg SewartHOST
Yeah, so this is a remastering of Wing Commander 3, which was a fantastic game.
Greg SewartHOST
The reason I bought a 3DO, actually.
Greg SewartHOST
And of course, it had something like two hours of video footage.
Greg SewartHOST
It was basically sold as an interactive movie.
Greg SewartHOST
The video quality was terrible, relatively speaking.
Greg SewartHOST
And there was never a remaster or re-release that made the video quality much better.
Greg SewartHOST
It did come out on the PlayStation and the 3DO, and I think it was a little bit better, but not much.
Greg SewartHOST
Like Wing Commander 4, for an example, actually, there was a DVD version of Wing Commander 4, so that the video quality was much higher.
Chris SaturnHOST
Isn't the strangest thing.
Justin BakerHOST
So actual synopsis, Kenji Eno's surreal horror adjacent FMV adventure game originally made for 3DO.
Justin BakerHOST
All of these are words that are kryptonite to me.
Chris SaturnHOST
We are finally covering a 3DO game.
Chris SaturnHOST
Yeah.
Justin BakerHOST
Finally, a 3DO FMV game.
Justin BakerHOST
Yay.
Justin BakerHOST
So every word in this sentence is a nope from me.
John LinnemanHOST
But they were limited of course, by the media of the time.
John LinnemanHOST
Even I'd say the 3DO version is pretty good video wise, but even then, like none of them hold up that well.
John LinnemanHOST
So having the original source files is awesome.
Coury CarlsonPANELIST
Yeah, and this was something like three CDs, I think.
GregHOST
So, but.
ThrakGUEST
And also, and also, fun fact, PGA Tour 96 released on the 3DO.
ThrakGUEST
That's right, my, my show.
GregHOST
Yeah.
