Falcon has a _much_ faster frame rate (on my A1000). A-10 gets slower and slower as it has to handle more objects. I'd say it gets down to about a frame per second sometimes. Falcon has more detail and is faster than blazes. Spectrum Holobyte has much better graphics algorithms than Dynamix, I'd say. Falcon Mission II is very impressive. -- Jon R.
