It doesn't load?
*******EDIT*******
Well, it does now. Not sure what happened there.
Anyway, neat! Perhaps the game itself should have been in 3D. Or, given what happened to GK3, perhaps not.

Yeah, they didn't have 3D in 1989.
But then, there's always this:

I am not a fan of how Roger looks here - but the rest is freaking breath taking.

Very cool.
And a reasonable imitation of Garry Owens.

Could SQ3 be remade in 3D?
(Well, yes, I know the obvious answer: yes, it could, given enough time, interest, developers, artists, money, etc. etc. Perhaps I should change the question, then: could SQ3 plausibly be remade in 3D?)

I've dug around about that SQIII... and that's as far as it's ever gone as far as I can find.

Last I heard some other members joined the team to complete it but then it just....never made any more news.
Also, Rath, the another question is SHOULD it be remade in 3D.
Also also, am I crazy or is there no voices in that video? What's this about a Gary Owens imitation?

I dig the idea of animating these old boxes. Even turning some into motion posters might be a fun side-project.
Regarding 3D, I'd still rather see SQ3 get remade in VGA first (to complete the set, of course.) But it's still impressive how much effort went into designing that junk heap.
