This prototype of bloodlines turned up again recently on ebay where the owner wanted a ridiculous £2000 (almost $3000).

When I enquired about it he/she said they had withdrawn it from sale and were considering their options, but were likely to list iit again sometime.

I would have quite happilly offered a a figure in the hundreds of pounds if a little more evidence had been provided that the game was actually functioning properly but the thousands of pounds he/she wanted just seemed crazy.

Still looks cool though.

Wow. That looks amazing. Thanks for sharing the info.

I want this almost as much as I want a Super Mario World prototype. D:

I really want to play that zeppelin level!

Not to be rude, but none of this is news. Isn't there already a thread covering this? It's in our best interests as a group to be concise in topic (and use the Search function, )

I doubt the proto will be that interesting. Someone found blimp graphics hidden in the final game.

Not blimps. Zeppelins.

It's cool that they found a few tiles, but that's no substitute for an actual, playable level. There are probably a bunch of other neat differences as well.

I don't suppose you could get more information on how complete it is? o_o

Is it an actual prototype?
Someone dumped one before, but it turned out to be identical to the final US ROM.
