RE: [SWCollect] Another one?!
I don't work in a comedy club, but my brother used to do stand up...does that count? : ) The Clouseau movies are great. I don't think they ever made a game based onthe series(although there are 2 Pink Panther adventure games based on the newer version of the cartoon), but they just released the Pink Panther collection on DVD. Unfortunately, It's missing one of the movies which was produced by another studio (although this can be bought separately), and is seriously lacking in special features. BTW, Josh Mandel, one of my favorite adventure game designers and writers, used to do stand up,IIRC. : ) Stuart -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Friday, June 04, 2004 10:47 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Re: [SWCollect] Another one?!In a message dated 06/04/2004 8:08:19 AM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: As Inspector Clouseau would say, "Not anymore..."Stuart, you've been coming up with a LOT of funny lines lately, do you work part time in a comedy club by any chance? ;) Hey, have they made any "Clouseau" video games?

Re: [SWCollect] Kids and Classic Gaming
Oops. Hall of the Mountain King was the soundtrack that looped in the BG once you got the 'flame'. Mountain King was the game. Thanks for correcting that. I think you're right about the number of levels varying between platforms in MR. Like being the person who edits movies for television, it must be difficult to decides which levels stay and which ones go. Unless they all have the same base levels and some versions have bonus levels. Matter of perspective I suppose.
