I'm gonna nit-pick here because I feel there are a few important things this review fails to mention:
This game was originally made for the C64 and ported to IBM CGA.
This game was made by none other than Jordan Mechner. Jordan Mechner was more an independent film maker than a game maker when he started writing Karateka, hense the reason for the cinematic quality that had never been seen before. After Karateka Mr. Mechner went on to refine his digital story telling prowis producing Prince of Persia and Prince of Persia 2. (Mechner also produced the more modern PoP series, tho he had nothing to do with the unpopular PoP3D produced in 1999.)
This under "If you liked this game..." both PoP need to be added.
Ahh, glad that's off my chest.
