An overview of the game Repton by Superior Software, played on an Acorn Electron computer.
Lazy Game Reviews Quickie #1
These LGRQ videos are a break from my “full length” reviews to simply show more arcade-like games and give my opinion on the game and how it plays. The goal is to do this in around 3 minutes for each game, unscripted and unrehearsed.
Review starts at 1:40

@phreakindee Well, trust me. Regardless of the effort in these videos, the name is one that sticks very well. I also enjoy watching the Angry Video Game Nerd, but you don’t need elaborate plots or special effects to get in the way of concrete info and opinion. Keep up the good work.

Its a 3D flight combat simulator for Windows 3.1
I was just playing it on a emulated Windows 3.1 installation on DOSBox, but it also works on XP and Vista with no DOSBox, although you will need 3.1 and DOSBOX for joystick support and Fullscreen.

@phreakindee Wish there was some way to give free donation. Your videos are great, just not HD great.
@SeoTaijiboy …
@SeoTaijiboy Sometimes I think that was a mistake. It was indeed the original idea behind them, to be as lazy as possible while retaining some quality. I really am quite laid-back and lazy as possible when making them. But it comes off as not lazy at all and therefore very confusing. I kind of feel stuck with the name now…
Yeah, I always …
Yeah, I always wonder why you call them Lazy Game Reviews, can I can tell a lot of work is put into these.

@vwestlife Haha, …
@vwestlife Haha, yeah I wanted to toss that in here somehow. I found it funny that it does fault the user directly, it’s so blunt. Even “bad command or file name” sounds a bit better than simply “mistake”!

@Lachlant1984 No. At least, not to my knowledge.

@alanw3000 They’ll get their chance, I promise! I really want to do a review of them, but I’m still trying to figure out what exactly I’ll do. There’s tons to cover and show and only so much time I have.
