Well, Taito has released Rastan GS.  It's been shipping for a few weeks now. 
Frankly, I'm surprised, but I'm also excited and thankful.  Taito did not
choose to continue work on Renegade (no great loss, really), yet they release
Rastan for the GS.

I have a copy already.  I barely remember the game from the arcade, but I'll
tell you that the GS version looks like a carbon copy of the arcade version. 
If you thought Task Force was good, you ain't seen nuttin yet.  Smooth
scrolling, fantastic animation, stereo sound... it's got it all... and well
worth the $22 that Programs Plus is charging.  I really do hope that people
will buy this ware and not copy it and pass it out.  This is one fantastic
game.

For all of you doubters out there who thought that the Gs was dead and wasn't
good for much anything anymore:  check out Rastan and start eating your words!
