Digital Leisure plans to follow-up Dragon's Lair HD with the release of Space Ace HD and Dragon's Lair II: Time Warp HD over the coming months.

Wow, that's kickass.  I'd hate to see the size of the video files though -- standard def is already a gig and a half.

Lilwolf:
The audio could be cool... but its still an after enhancment similar to eagle graphics.

but where the originals stored at a higher resolution then the game itself could display?  I know laser disks are analog so color depth can't be captured exactly... But how about resolution?

I'm just wondering if its a gimic. 

Also, whats HD on a pc?  Anyone guess what the resolution might end up being?  Would be nice to see videos start to show up for daphne

ahofle:
According to the article, the originals are film cells, so no limitation on resolution.

SirPoonga:
"Using today's most sophisticated film transfer equipment the original Dragon's Lair film master was pulled from the vaults at Technicolor and carefully cleaned, reprinted and captured for this HD experience."

So I am sure it looks good :)

As for resolution my guess is 1080i if you look at the trailer's resolutions
