Legend of Xanadu Raffle

NecroPhile · 12/03/2013, 03:39 PM

It's a Festivus Day miracle! Gather around the aluminum pole and enter for a chance at a complete-ish copy of Legend Of Xanadu (at least disc, case, and manual). Feats of strength are optional, but here's the rest o' the rules:

1. Don't enter if you've already got one.
2. Ya gotta have 150 posts by the time of the drawing, and they can't mostly be in buy/sell/raffle threads.
3. You promise to never sell it for profit, and that you'll re-raffle it if you ever want to get rid of it.
4. It must be played - no dust collectors! If I completed it anybody can if they try.
5. I reserve the right to not include whiners, maroons, and anyone else that pisses me off.
6. A random winner will be selected whenever I log in after Festivus.

Entrants (speak up if I missed you):

BigusSchmuck
ceti alpha
Duo_R
esteban
jeffhlewis
jlued686
MrFlutterPie
Nando
NightWolve
spenoza

Sign me up dude!

turboswimbz · 12/03/2013, 08:04 PM

Sign me up - I'd be willing to give it a go.

Duo_R · 12/03/2013, 11:57 PM

Sign me up please

By the way, I don't expect the winner to necessarily complete this one, but you gotta give it an honest try. If you get nowhere, you can at least use the code to see all the cut scenes and play the side scrolling bits (the best parts anyway).

BigusSchmuck · 12/04/2013, 11:49 AM

I wants in!

I'd finish it just becuase - It'd be one of those gotta do it things. besides I was reading the walkthrough links Sam posted in that thread. Seems doable.

NecroPhile · 12/04/2013, 12:28 PM

Yarr, it's definitely doable. I've got zero moon runes skills but made it through using the vague and incomplete guide from turbolist, and what Sam linked looks one heck of a lot better.

I wasn't interested until you pointed out there's a code to play the side-scrolling segments. Now I'm intrigued. I'm in.

Awwww spenoza... The side-scrollers are just the icing on the cake. The real fun is playing through the game

roflmao · 12/10/2013, 10:05 PM

I've always wondered about this game, but I've won one of your more recent raffles, so I'm going to pass. +1 TurboKarma to you! Good luck to the winner.

johnnykonami · 12/12/2013, 09:28 PM

I'd love to try, but I guess I gotta get my post count up! Good luck to everybody, I always wanted to nab both of the Xanadu titles, especially part 2.

Cr@p, I guess I'll throw my name in the Hatris, too.

ALL CAPS.

I guess I gotta respect Xanadu.

WingZeroKai · 12/15/2013, 10:16 PM

I have 2 copies of both Legend of Xanadu 1 and 2. They're that good. Maybe I should raffle off 1 of each. Either way, whoever wins this will be one happy gamer.

NecroPhile · 12/23/2013, 12:17 PM

Doesn't it feel a little better knowing that we had absolutely no chance?

Imagine being Duo_R? That would suck!

NecroPhile · 12/24/2013, 03:11 PM

Not that it matters to the randomizer, but Nando was fifth to sign up.

Nando · 12/24/2013, 03:50 PM

Merry Christmas to me!

So kickass!

Doh! Yeah, that was just a lady luck post after all. I guess I glanced at it too quickly.

Ah well, so be it. Nando is Christmas 2013 champ and as angry as that makes me, I just have to accept it...

MrFlutterPie · 12/26/2013, 05:34 PM

Congratz to Nando on the win!

Have you been playing Xanadu?

Kudos like 3 months late to Necro! +5 turbokarma points.

I have, mainly the action parts for now, and studying the pixel art. This game is SOOOOOOOOOO PRETTY, and the action scenes are solid.

The cut scenes are also phenomenal.

That was the first thing I did too using the Debug mode cheat. I just wanted to see some cut scenes and try the action levels! So awesome!! I can't wait to actually play through it to see the complete game!

Just have to finish up Emerald Dragon first...
