    Digital Leisure (which I swear only exists to port old FMV games to every system known to man) did port the original arcade version of it to CD and DVD, but they're both since gone out of print unfortunately

    A Black Falcon: no, computer games and video games are NOT the same thing. Video games are on consoles, computer games are on PC. The two kinds of games are different, and have significantly different design styles, distribution methods, and game genre selections. Computer gaming and console (video) gaming are NOT the same thing."

    The Halcyon might have had more of a chance if it'd had Dragon's Lair and Space Ace... and a controller option, instead of just voice command and keyboard. It was probably doomed anyway because of its price, though... but not having your companies' two best-known games can't have helped them get the money they'd have needed to actually get it on shelves.

    Well and I think the tech behind it was just so incredibly "new" at the time that they couldn't get a lot of people on board to publish for it. And Laserdiscs, in of themselves, cost a pretty penny too
