      I agree that "7th Guest" was one of the best games on the CD-i. The only negative about it was that it was too fast and smooth, which worked against the creepiness of the game.
      Another good game was "Kether" where the combined a flying game with a puzzle-solving game (you'd fly to a location, avoiding dangerous obstacles, arrive at the location, and solve a puzzle to advance to the next stage.

    Kind of surprised in two ways. First that this is not one of the usual youtube Phillips CD-i is the worst console of all time video's but secondly it would appear it actually had some playable games - not just CD movies playing with basic point and click overlays.
    Still, can't forget the day back in the early 90's when a friend, who was new to gaming had just played Tempest 2000 on my Jaguar, decided he needed a Jaguar too.
    Long story cut short, he came back from the store £800 lighter and with the salesman's recommendation, a CD-i !
    Alas, 30 years on, it would appear my choice in console was nearly as bad as his was

      The system had various different controllers, for games with digital input there was a pad that was essentially the same as the "Gravis PC GamePad" and one that was sold for the Amiga as Tecnoplus TP511 - both are decent enough. The trackball is also nice for some games, as is the gun. Don't try playing action games on this system with an infrared remote though, you will fail miserably.

    I like the unreleased, later recovered and released Plunderball. It's a fun little pinball game with a lot of charm, but after you see the FMVs a few times, you'll want to turn them off. Luckily, you can do exactly that in the options. The main downside is no music (probably wasn't finished). I like to listen to the Tetris CDi OST while playing.

      Phillips acquired licenses from Nintendo when they tried to work together back in the day. This was a very long time ago when Nintendo was mulling over trying out CD media before the PlayStation era. Out of all four games released on the CD-I that were based on Nintendo properties, the only decent one is Hotel Mario. Don't EVER play the Zelda games, they are drop dead horrendous. There's a reason the three CD-I Zelda games are known as the "Unholy Triforce".
