Knight Rider computer game to release later this year. According to this article (with screenshots), the game will feature material based on all seasons of the original TV series (Garth! Goliath! KARR!), and an "all-star cast," which I hope means David Hasselhoff and William Daniels at the very least (their IMDb bios don't mention it). The article says this "will ship in the first quarter of 2003," but that sounds like either a typo or misreportage, given how recently it was announced. From Tri Synergy, whose lousy website has no information on the subject.

Also: The Sci-Fi Channel is airing the original Knight Rider series.

KARR! Yes! But will it better than the NES version? Or this?

at first I read this as "Knight-Ridder" and thought they'd created a computer sim-game about newspaper publishing!

Wow Anita, apparently we are *both* extremely strange peolpe. Though I have to admit, the initial mental images I had of a Knight-Ridder game were much more interesting than the actual screenshots in the article.
