View Full Version : Dizzy's Cameos and mentions
I'm thinking of having another page for the Scrap book, Dizzy being briefly shown on other games for example.
But the only problem is I need help looking for various screenshots.
Pete Sampras Tennis - MegaDrive - Someone posted on the old Forum that theres a mode where Dizzy runs across the net and he breaks when you keep hitting him.
Firo & Klawd - Playstation 1 - I was looking for Dizzy Videos on YouTube and came across this video of a game called Firo & Klawd clip by PlayStationMuseum, and it said that the opening FMV sequence to Firo & Klawd (sadly not shown on the video I found) shows a truck driving by in the background with a picture of Dizzy on the side.
If you can provide screenshots of the games I mentioned or know of any other Dizzy appreances from other games/places, post it here :)

Aah, Tah muchly, Mr. J :tup:
Of all the dangerous things to do during a Tennis match :p
:shocked: What a horrible thing to do to poor Dizzy... :v2_dizzy_frown:
And of all the things that Dizzy has done and all the dangers he has encountered...
Wouldn't have thought tennis would be the thing to get him...
This game is called Race against time, a Codemasters game.
Now I know this game doesn't have Dizzy's face on it but is there any graphics you recognize? :p

As for mentions, heres Wild West Seymour, talking about dropping items on clouds :p

Race against Time was built using the Dizzy 1 Engine.
As for Seymour.. Slightly Magic and many other Codies games featured similar gfx. Perhaps there was a graphics 'pot' where the programmers could choose from. Why create a new 'cloud' when the other clouds worked well :)
Firo & Klawd - Playstation 1 - I was looking for Dizzy Videos on YouTube and came across this video of a game called Firo & Klawd clip by PlayStationMuseum, and it said that the opening FMV sequence to Firo & Klawd (sadly not shown on the video I found) shows a truck driving by in the background with a picture of Dizzy on the side.
I FOUND IT GUYS!! Look out for a lorry passing by in the background between 0:29 and 0:32. ;)

Just seen an advert on ITV for Credit Union (CuCity?) and their character looked VERY familiar!
