Dragon's Lair Blue-Ray Project

(1/9) > >>

gdumont:
Guys,

So I'm looking to build a Dragon's Lair arcade from scratch. I'm basically building a cabinet and throwing a PS3 in there so I can play the Blue-Ray version of Dragon's Lair. But here's the thing, I want to use real Dragon's Lair control panel with real controls, not something like the X-Arcade. Does anyone know of a good control interface for this? I just can't seem to find anything online that supports the PS3.

Also, what would you guys recommend for a monitor? I really couldn't do anything widescreen because the width of the cabinet needs to be the same (or close to) as the control panel. I'd rather have the image bigger.

I'd appreciate any feedback on this project. Thanks everyone!!!

Do a PS3 controller hack.

gdumont:
Any good sites that you could direct me to on this?

superart:
can you do a ps2 hack and get this http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Pelican-PS2-to-PS3-Adapter-PL6338/sem/rpsm/oid/177515/catOid/-16762/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do

If the adapter accepts regular controllers it will be even easier, since ps2 controller are a pain to hack.

Green Giant:
I am kind of confused here.

From what I can tell this new version of DL is virtually the same as the old one in terms of gameplay.  The biggest updates to it are in the graphics and sound.  You are planning on taking a PS3 and placing it in a cab which will have 27" monitor at the biggest, unless you do a showcase.  The sound won't utilize the full 7.1 surround.

Why are you doing this basically?  The only review I could find on it said it couldn't be rated as a video game but more a mini movie.
