This thread has been linked to the game 'SabreWulf'.
So far, I'm not really impressed.
It's an alright game, and it can be fun at times, but it just hasn't got that Rare magic that made Banjo so great, along with many others.
I've only played it for 30 minutes, but already I feel the end creeping up on me, and with each level only lasting around 30 seconds, I can't see it being longer than 10 hours.
It feels like a good game just waiting to be unleashed, so hopefully it will amount of more than it has done already. I've high hopes for this title for a long, long time...
Here's to hoping.

Was Underwurld part of that series too?
Anyway, SabreWulf's getting really good now. Bit of a slow starter, but worth it in the end.

SabreWulf was the first game, it's sequel was called KnightLore. 3D isometric puzzler where SabreMan turned into a werewolf (werewulf?)
Ah, it works now.
Looks very, very different. :-D
Was the idea similar to Rare's latest effort?

I've started to like a little more now after some of the later (ish) levels, which require you to trick SabreWulf a little more instead of a mad dash to the finish line.

I think he's quite a dashing young man...
[URL]See for youself[/URL]
Also, you can see the original Wulf in that pic to.
As for Dr. Dolittle Good, never heard of him until that game.
Which I have now played for about an hour and a half, and am about 30% completion of the game.
I think it's alright, but it isn't quite Donkey Kong Country.

In the original was SabreMan really, really old? And was the bad guy called Dr. Dolittle Good?
I'm sure it's a sequel.

Nope, it was actually SabreWulf.
I was soooo hoping for this game to be AMAZING!
As SabreWulf is one of my all time favourite games!
