View Full Version : Paphiopedilum Forest in a video game!!!
Paphraguy August 24th, 2005, 07:56 PM Yes, it is true, Paphs are now appearing in video games! :D The characters in the new Microsoft game have to walk through a forest full of Paphs which to me look like they are all peloric sanderianums or even platyphyllums. I took a screen cap of the scene, here it is. :lol:

Shady Character August 24th, 2005, 08:57 PM Are those dudes fighting over the rights to name the new discoveries? 8)
TADD August 24th, 2005, 09:10 PM What game is that Pete? No fairrieanums...hhhmmmm I will have to write to Microsoft :poke:
nyorchids August 24th, 2005, 09:18 PM thats sweet !! i love video games :D oh..... and paphs
Paphraguy August 24th, 2005, 10:06 PM It is the newly released Microsoft game Dungeon Siege II, an excellent PC game, I really like it and I totally got hooked, much better than the first one.
Paphgirl August 26th, 2005, 07:06 PM That's so bizarre - are you sure you didn't photo-shop those in? lol! :poke:
Very strange!! They need to work a little on the accuracy, IMO! :lol:
Paphraguy August 26th, 2005, 07:10 PM They made them all pouchless and I wish they had kept the pouches! In one part of the forest, there are hundreds of them and some even in bud and some even had pouches! :lol: I was quite surprised to see Paphs in a video game.

Gone get that game I played Dungeon Siege I and loved it !!! :Party:
Paphraguy August 28th, 2005, 09:46 AM Jake, the sequel to me is a little harder but fun and lots of places to explore, so at times one can get lost and some of the monsters are very powerful. Hope you enjoy it!
Paul B December 9th, 2008, 02:02 PM Lol Thats very interesting!I know its an old post and this I got to see but where is the pic? I dont see it Peter can you post it again? Thanks.
Paphraguy December 9th, 2008, 04:28 PM That's an old thread which I had completely forgotten about but I have no idea why the picture is not displaying. I'll see if I can find that picture and if I do I'll post it.
Paul B December 9th, 2008, 06:06 PM Thats cool if you can post it again! should be interesting Lol
Paphy57 December 9th, 2008, 07:04 PM LOL! This will be interesting!
Slipperguy December 10th, 2008, 12:33 AM I remember that pic...too funny!
Paphraguy December 10th, 2008, 09:37 AM I finally found it in one of my old hard drives. Here is the screen capture. Note the giant Paph to the right which to me looks like a philippinense without the pouch. There are also a few more in the distance.
Tom S December 10th, 2008, 11:48 AM Paphs now in video games where will they show up next?
orchidlover December 10th, 2008, 02:01 PM That is so funny! LOL! I have never seen or heard of Paphs in video games! Why are they standing next to that Paph?
Paul B December 10th, 2008, 04:11 PM That is really so cool to see paphs in a video game of all places! Lol I have never played that game but looks good. Thanks Peter!

Paphy57 December 10th, 2008, 04:55 PM LOL! They must be kolo's because they are huge!
Tom S December 10th, 2008, 05:52 PM That is so funny! LOL! I have never seen or heard of Paphs in video games! Why are they standing next to that Paph?
It looks like they are standing there guarding that Paph with deadly weapons.
rdlsreno December 10th, 2008, 07:57 PM That is cool!:cool:
Ramon:D
Paphraguy December 10th, 2008, 08:43 PM That is so funny! LOL! I have never seen or heard of Paphs in video games! Why are they standing next to that Paph?
:lol: I moved them closer to the giant Paph flower because I wanted to see it up close. They probably didn't care because they were watching for any signs of danger. :lol: Now come to think of it, I think there were flowers with pouches in that Paphiopedilum forest.
Slipperguy December 10th, 2008, 11:31 PM It looks like they are standing there guarding that Paph with deadly weapons.

Lol if I found a giant paph in the woods I would also guard it with weapons!
skipper March 19th, 2009, 02:51 PM Paphs must be becoming mainstream to be in a video game. Interesting and nice picture.
dragonfly22 March 22nd, 2009, 10:36 AM One would have never expected to see Paphs in a video game of all places! Very interesting!
phragmip March 20th, 2010, 12:51 PM I don't play video games but I find this so interesting!
casey March 21st, 2010, 12:05 PM Very interesting to see giant paphs in a video game!
phragmip July 24th, 2010, 08:32 AM I showed this to my nephew and his friends and they thought it was "cool" and something different.
Brendan July 24th, 2010, 09:54 AM This is interesting. I have played videgames but never seen a slipper orchid in it before.
Chosen One July 24th, 2010, 05:18 PM Interesting!
Brendan December 4th, 2010, 12:22 AM I found an old used copy of this game today. I had a good chuckle when I picked it up because I remember seeing it here first.
Brendan December 12th, 2010, 06:54 PM Great game but a little too outdated now. I enjoyed it.
Rocco December 12th, 2010, 10:44 PM Very interesting to see Paph blooms in a video game!
