How good is Dragon's Lair on the 3DO compared to the CD-i?

Just curious, because if the 3DO port is arcade-perfect, I'll get that one.

It plays exactly like the arcade but there is some compression.

The CD-i versions of Space Ace and Dragon's Lair are actually a bit better if you have the video module.

You need the DVC to play Dragon's Lair on CD-i. The game won't run w/out it. It must be said though, that the CD-i version is better than the 3DO one. The DVC can't be beat when it comes to games like this and Space Ace, the ALG games, etc ... The CD-i version also has a few scenes not found in the 3DO one.
Most wanted - Eye of Typhoon, 3DO Magazines issues #14 & #15, Pro Stadium, Defcon 5
