DaneyDuke Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 I recommend folks rent the new video game before purchasing. It has excellent graphics!!! Original cast voices is a plus. Some of the adventures are not too bad... it seems to be more for an adult audience than kids. At least one level of free roam and multi player, open for folks who don’t want to do the missions would have been nice. There is a "Dixie" horn control button and one for yeehaa. The instruction booklet was disappointing, for the fact that it doesn’t give a listing of the one player mode missions. Both playstation 1 DOH games had an “episode†guide. Unlike other games where the map is in the corner, you have to press start to pause the game and view. OR select button will get you a transparent over the area you are driving in game map. No "health" bar to let you know how damaged the vehicle is. And it varies from scene to scene, just how much it takes to wreck the General, patrol car, etc. The car can slide or spin way too easily. Only three save spots, you can't put your name, it's just file: A, B, C. It doesn't take you back to the exact point you left off, you restart from the beginning of that entire mission. It would have been nice to pick from amatuer, immediate, and professional playing levels. Instead it's the same for everyone. Features I would’ve liked, other folks might not have. I do want to thank the makers of “Return Of The General Leeâ€, for at least takin' a chance on this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinG Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 Just found the board so very new, very cool though. Game is very cool except for the things Daney has already mentioned. Some are the things are hard to find, like some of the best time runs, and still have not got multiplayer unlocked, know if there is a guide or anywhere with hints on where things are?

DaneyDuke Posted October 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 =) Welcome to Hnet, Kevin. I thought I was little harsh in my review until I saw your post. Thanks. Haven't found a "walk thru" for the game yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaneyDuke Posted October 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Yes, free roam and two player are available, providing the video game player is able to unlock it in the previous mission. Welcome to Hnet. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 I had to put a PS2 on my X-mas list , well the family list, just so I could get the DOH game. I might get it for my kids sine they will play it more than me and most of thier friends have PS 2....I still would rather have an old Atari 2600 , that is more my level anyway....lolDarrell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Coltrane Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 How much does the PS2 cost these days? I'll admit, I ain't owned a home game system since....I'm not gonna say it and embarass myself. I'm lucky I have a working computer at the moment, so you know how it is.

DaneyDuke Posted November 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 The Playstation 2 is now around $120 to $150 depending on where it's purchased. Half the price of when it first came out. As for computers, I'd offer you mine but it's got this annoying habit of being vulnerable to drive by spy/mal/adware jackings. Hope your computer is running better now.
