Has anybody here ever played Space Quest I by Sierra On-Line? It's a game from 1984. If you did, do you remember the part where you're at the bar on Kerona? One of the bands playing there is the Blues Brothers!!! In the original version of the game, they play Can't Turn You Loose. I'm not sure what they play in the second version Sierra released. Have the Blues Brothers made any cameo apperances in other games?

Haha, I think I have a demo of this game on one of my "300 Totally Awesome Games" discs, ha. I'll have to play it just to see the Blues Brothers now.

Awsome, got any sites I can read more about it? Or buy/download it?

Microsoft had a game that came out in 2000 called Midtown Madness.
There was a Chicago Edition with a fair replica of Chicago's downtown area streets to drive on. Although there was no Bluesmobile in the game as a standard car, the car was able to be downloaded from a website into the game. The car is fun to drive and actually goes pretty fast. I don't think that Midtown Madness is available anymore in stores. Maybe from eBay?

you don't have "open air markets" with computer games? where you can not buy an original one but cheaper?

[NickVonBismarck]

Yeah, as far as actual Blues Brothers viedo games, there were several:
NES: The Blues Brothers
Super Nintendo: The Blues Brothers
N64: Blues Brothers 2000
Game Boy: The Blues Brothers
Also for GB: The Blues Brothers: Jukebox Adventure
PC, Amiga, and Atari ST: The Blues Brothers

I have actually found two different versions for the PC, one can be downloaded here:

I forget where I found the other one. I think they are both abandonware now though.

The SNES game was The Blues Brothers: Jukebox Adventures. I had both of the PC games, the first one (and better, but short) and the Jukebox Adventures, who had nice graphics and sounds, but nothing related with the bb ( C´mon, Jake & Elwood on a forest? Jumping on mushrooms?).

[TOFIKsylwia]

blues brothers + mushrooms =........shame;)
nice game..maybe someday i will play it;)
