YAY!

Was thinking the other day its the perfect time to bring him back. Just hope it isn't a stupid ios release.



A proper announcement is expected tomorrow!

The perfect time to bring Dizzy back is any time. I'll be all over this. I really hope they keep the beautiful simplicity of the originals. The Megadrive version, in particular, was gorgeous.

My mind immediately jumps to 3DS

[SuperBeatBoy]

Xbla/PSN would probably be the safest bet. Remakes of the originals in shiny new graphics and do that switch to the original whenever you want, which seems to be the craze these days.

Or something mobile

Like i said previously, I really hope not.

Also:

[Dogg Thang]

I'd love a 3DS version. I could see it working really well on that. As long as there save points.

[darkangel]

Awesome! Dizzy was amazing. Yep a 3DS version would be best, to try and change the format from 2D to 3D for Dizzy would be an awful move. It simply wouldn't work imo.

[Flabio]

This is going to be iOS. No way they'd commit to doing anything more with an IP that's practically unknown outside the UK.

[SuperBeatBoy]

Don't jinx it Flabio!!! I don't think the controls would be good enough for it anyway.

[Dogg Thang]

All Dizzy has to be able to do is walk, jump and exchange items. It wouldn't be a stretch to think they could get that working on iOS. I'd far prefer the 3DS or something with real tactile controls but I don't see why it couldn't work on iOS. Especially as I imagine, regardless of system, pixel perfect jumps will likely not feature. They fell out of favour a long time ago.

I liked Dizzy at the time, but I have played the Megadrive version not so long ago and it just bored me now. I'm not eggspecting great things from this.

[Flabio]

Never been a fan of them really. Treasure Island Dizzy with it's whole 'one life, one hit kills you' thing, and that utterly insanely stupid inventory management puzzle involving the snorkel, make it one of the worst games ever to my mind (albiet with a catchy theme tune on the C64 version)

[SuperBeatBoy]

What i mean to say Dogg Thang is that Dizzy's floatyness wouldn't work really well. I don't know, i'm just trying to badmouth it so it doesn't magically appear on it as i don't own an iOS device.

I actually cracked a smile at that joke. I loved Dizzy games, Fantasy Dizzy was my fav although some of the puzzles scambled my brain. I'll be hard boiled if it comes out on anything other then eggsbox live
