		Hy, if somebody is interested in old adventure games you should check out Rise of the Dragon, released by Dynamix. As far as I know Dynamix was a part of Sierra-Family or still is...not sure. The game was originally released on 7 discs and was very cool. I like the atmosphere and music (PC Speaker) of the game but if anybody is interested in that game he/she should check out http://www.the-underdogs.org... which is a great site anyways because you can get ALOT of old games there......especially if you´re a retro-freak !

		Yeah I've heard good things. I believe it's on the Sega CD too

		Yup, released for the US consumer only. Looks like I´ve got to use the converter again...maybe it works this time.

		I love this game. It's one of the earliest SCD games I played.

		Dynamix is no more. Sierra decided to get rid of the company after they released the final patch to Tribes 2.

		If you like the game, check out Heart of China which was made by the same people. It has a different setting (1940s Asia) but similar mechanics.

		Thanks, I´ll try that. Rise of the Dragon is really amazing. The atmosphere, characters and the brutality (don´t think that this kind of violence was "normal" durnig that time and even is not today I guess ) make it really unique.
