 15,000 hours a TEAM a 4 experience games maker... Yes some people
 work that mutch!
 Everyone that worked on overdrive done other commercial games.
 And we started a year and a half ago! and still getting the last things
 ready now!.

 You could work ALL your life and not do anything good!? Is this a good
 point? I dont think so...

 Also we are system programers, and I'm pretty sure (if you want to
 get personal) that we know more than you on EVERY amiga subject!.
 We work on the amiga this the A1000 came out...

 Before that we worked on 8bit.(AplleII, C64, Z81, sepctrum, ORIC, MSX
 etc etc...).But we got passed that (I didn't worked myself on 8bit
 comercialy).

 All my point are PROVEN! please attack them one by one, and I will be
 GLAD to explain in more depth...

 Excuse me to say what I think but: You dont know what you are talking
 about!
 You are a game programer true, but you should realize that you have
 more than 1 kind of game! And you cant force other to follow your
 idea.

 If you have ported a MAC game and seem pretty proud of it: is the
 copper exploited to its fullest? is the blitter exploited to its
 fullest? CPU intensive? MEMORY hungry? etc...

 I'm not saying that you do a bad job... simply that what you do is
 not what other do, and you can aply rules in both worlds!

 So MR.KNOW EVERYTHING. Tell me how I will make my game HD instalable...
