		The fact is, Cinemaware's most famous game could be older than most of the people reading this right now.
		Despite having a string of hits across a bunch of old platforms — Cinemaware closed its doors at the beginning of the 1990s —; probably signaling a major weeklong bummer/candlelit vigil for at least a dozen nerds out there.
		Cinemaware's most famous title, and most successful, was probably Defender of the Crown —; a game that the observant will notice shares a similar title to this very game —; it isn't a coincidence.

	Featuring Robin Hood: Defender of the Crown Interview at ActionTrip (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Cinemaware was in many ways ahead of their time, both in terms of gameplay design and their attempts to raise the cinematic value of games.
		All this came to a stop though in 1991, and even though I'm unaware of the reasons surrounding Cinemaware's "disappearance" I'm very glad to report that (fast forward ten years or so) they are back on the map with their announcement of Robin Hood: Defender of the Crown.
		Cinemaware's Robin Hood isn't going to be wearing tights and bounding through the boughs of trees, he's going to be a very real hero, a conflicted and troubled witness to the consequences of his decision.

		Cinemaware has chosen to base the game of the original AMIGA release (actually – it might be the PC release also but this is how I remember the AMIGA version).
		This is a bit unfortunate since the C64 version had some nice extras and is generally speaking thought as the best version (except of the graphics of course).

	GameSpy: Robin Hood: Defender of the Crown Preview
		By choosing to remake Defender of the Crown for the PC, PS2, and Xbox, the reincarnated Cinemaware (which was yanked out of bankruptcy a few years ago by a group of Activision refugees) has given itself a mighty challenge.
		Cinemaware has also added a fourth brand-new action break: a first-person archery sequence in which you rain arrows upon horse-and-buggy caravans from forest treetops, while dodging the arrows shot back at you.
		Cinemaware used a similar sequence in another of its classics, Lords of the Rising Sun, and it's a great addition here.

	GameSpy: Robin Hood: Defender of the Crown Review
		Cinemaware does a solid job of updating a 17-year-old computer classic, but there's only so much depth you can add to a collection of mini-games that had no depth to begin with.
		Old Cinemaware's games had the best audiovisuals of the era; New Cinemaware can't possibly compete on an audiovisual level with EA or Konami or Capcom or Namco or any of the A- and B-list developers and publishers with hordes of artists at their disposal.
		Robin Hood: Defender of the Crown, a remake of Cinemaware's only million-selling game, thus presented an enormous challenge; de-emphasize the eye and ear candy that made the company famous, while improving the gameplay that was barely there to begin with.

		Lars B: Many of the original pioneers of Cinemaware's early days are working on various projects in and out of the game industry, but we definitely have their support.

		But anyone who is familiar with some of the Cinemaware releases of that era – Rocket Ranger, The Three Stooges, It Came From the Desert –; is well aware that these were games that were graphically years ahead of the competition (I would love to have original boxed copies of these Cinemaware classics!).
		Now what passed for entertainment some seventeen years ago wouldn’t fly today, so Cinemaware has meticulously recreated the simplicity of the original game and beefed it up with cinematic presentations voiced by professional British actors, a fully orchestrated soundtrack and a deeper storyline that offers some insight into the Robin Hood mythos.
		Attempting to assemble varied battle units to exploit the weaknesses of enemy lords is not my strong point, but kudos to Cinemaware for keeping this aspect of the game as an intellectual challenge and not succumbing to today’s marketplace pressure for bloody warfare.

		Each new release saw Cinemaware add different "twists" to their formula that keep the loyalists at bay while enticing newcomers.
		The PC versions of Cinemaware games are noticeably inferior to the Amiga version which was the company's core focus.
