Does it really exist for the computer? I recall reading that there was a PC verstion years ago, I *think* in the G30. But then again, Sam Petus made a lot of silly mistakes, back when there wasn't a lot known about what was out there in the classic Sega world.

Honestly, I didn't even hear there was a PC version before this thread, although by no means am I, y'know, knoweldgeable about anything in particular.*

I did, however, scour the usual literature (GameFAQs, Wikipedia, Tobin's Spirit Guide...) and nothing came up. If I wasn't so afraid of the Lost Levels forums they may be able to help.



*EDIT I spelled 'anything' as 'anying'. Does that prove my point?

I read that in the old Segabase and G30 from Sam Petus that there was a PC version. But I did some looking around, and it doesn't appear to exist.

He made a lot of mistakes back in the day.

Who is this Sam Petus fella, anyway?

He's gonna start a 'swords-into-PC-Kolibri' project in your local Village Soviet soon.

He was this dude who documented the Genesis, way back in the day. His guides where full of mistakes and some of it is still seen as fact, when it isn't.

Anywhere I can read these guides? I'd like to peruse them sometime.

He wrote the Genesis Game Guide, and I think it's on Gamefaqs.

That would be awesome, but I seriously doubt it exists as a PC game...Kolibri is my favorite 32X title hands down...

Maybe it was planned or something... Sega did release a lot of PC ports around that time.

AFAIK it was planned, but never actually released... I think I once read about it in an old PC gaming magazine (PC Player I guess)... Next time I visit my parents, I could do a trip to the attic and dig through the pile of old magazines, maybe I could come up with a preview article or so.
