...That really takes advantage of the DreamCast's processing power. This game runs very smoothly at 60 frames per second. Much much better than the psx version. Sound is also much better than the psx. However, the psx is an inferior system and one would expect these minimal improvements.
Character models have really low poly counts with hi res textures. This means you see really clear, but blocky people and characters running around and it comes across as a game where the developers just threw better hi-res textures on their old cash cow game (in the 'biz they call it "slapping some new makeup on the wh0re and sending him back out"). Game play is fluid and easy to get into. The effects (lighting, fire, magic, warping from one reality to another) look very slick. The voice acting is well above average but the cut scenes can get a bit boring after seeing a dozen or so. Overall, LOKSR is a very cool-looking, somewhat long (25-30 hrs), mature, somewhat difficult adventure game that really takes advantage of the dreamcasts processing power.
Simply Amazing

thats all that needs to be said to describe this game. Its blows the pc version away and easily makes the psx version looks like a dogs chew toy. Running at a constant(NO SLOWDOWN) 60 fps, and no popup this game is a must have for any Dreamcast owner, and if you havent bought the sega system this game gives you a reason to buy one.(Also check out Crazy Taxi)
Incredible Game

Graphically, this game is genius. probably the best graphics on dreamcast, and the opening movie will blow u away. gameplay is good too, although the objectivs may get on the long side. a great game nevertheless.
Good graphics, better game play, perfect story.

This is a trend setting game in the way that it looks, but it also has great story lines and secrets that you can find. Though the game is fun it is very hard. Despite the toughness of the game it is a great game and you will get many hours of enjoyment out of it.

I first played this game on the PS and I thought it was great but the graphics were lacking. However the game was released for the dreamcast and I was very happy of how crystal dynamics handled those problems and wiped them clean. The models move better than they did in the past and there is now more attention on the land itself to make the game look spectacular.
