A500 Dune - Intro
 |
||
One of the most influencial games in my life. By the time (now defunct) Cryo released this piece of videogaming perfection, I had seen David Lynch's Dune movie, wich had a very important part in me actually understanding what was going on.Yet, the game follows the books much more closely then it's movie counterpart, so before I even realised it, I was hooked in much more then the game, I was hooked on Frank Herbert's Dune universe.I must highlight the amazing performance by Stephane Picq and Philip Ulrich in the many versions of the OSt for the game, of wich this Amiga version is my favorite. Simply amazing what he did with MOD files. If you don't have it already, make sure you check the link bellow for "Spice Opera", a remastered edition of the OST simply one of the greatest audio CDs ever made. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S...

This game was my first exposure to Dune. Life-changing for sure. The music is probably the best game soundtrack I've heard.

Besides skilled coders there were one thing that is missing most of today's game creators: creativity and enthusiasm. Back then computer games had to be innovative and fresh because there was no high-poly bling-bling super graphics that would cover anything else.

There were a lot of skilled assembler programmers in the 80's. It was the time when the first computers appeared on the mainstream market. The good old days...

Good ol' times... when about a dozen people created masterpiec games like this one. Today's mega-budgeted games never even came close to the feeling what these old games gave us.However I like the AdLib version of the music much-much better.

Shit yes. We'll say that they're the remains of a Coriolis Storm :/

Anyone going to see WAL-E, when you get on board the AXIOM, listen carefully for this tune (especially the arpeggio part at the beginning of this clip). I'm certain it's there...

Since rain never drops on Dune. -at the very beginning, those clouds in the sky are wrong.

I love this game! It's amazing how immersive the music and graphics were. Also, the passing of time, the sun rise and dawn --all simply using gradients. Reminded me of Corel Draw. But anyway, the character designs and exotic music gave this game an incredible sense of atmosphere. I think the game is better than the movie. No disrespect to David Lynch or H.R. Giger. I love H.R. Giger --I enjoyed the Dark Seed series as well. What else can one say about Dune? Chani was hot. :)
