Fade To Black

[Apocalypse Dude]

Does any one know if "Fade to Black" (the sequel to flashback) is an abandonware game, and if so where I can get it?

[The Fifth Horseman]

According to HOTU, it is still sold. No go, buddy.

they had that sign there for the last 3 years. :sneaky:
allthough I still haven't seen it anywhere else. besides HOTU says it's worse than the prequell, I usualy trust them on that.

I agree on that, but it's a nice thing to know what happened to poor Conrad after 50 YEARS SLEEPING!!

You know, I actually liked Fade to Black. My biggest problem with the game was the HUGE load times from the CD's. I am tempted, though, to image my disks and go Deamon Tools & DosBox on it's behind.

I own the game. I thought it was quite good. Better than Flashback in my opinion.

[a1s]

the game must truly kick behind to be better than flashback.

wasn´t "Fade to Black" originally performed by the Stones :blink:

EDIT: Sry, should think before posting. Think that I meant "Paint it Black"

[MadMarius]

you got me puzzeld. :blink: ..how is "fade to Black "(the game )anyway?

Fade to Black is, in my opinion definetly not half as good as Flashback. Graphic and animations in Flashback where great. F2B has ugly graphics and sounds. The controlls are not as intuitive as in Flashback and the story was not able to catch me, like in Flashback.

But on the other side every real Flashback fan has to play it, just because its the sequel to this great game. Dont get me wrong: F2B is not really bad, but compared with Flashback it has no chance.

@ Abandonware
I am not sure, but i think it can still be bought for Playstation 1. But for PC its sure Abandonware.

[Apocalypse Dude]

But anyway, if it isn't abandonware, Were can I buy it? because I love flashback and I wopuld really like to play the sequal.

[Nightkin]

I think ebay is the only way to buy it.
