I'm really pissed by this discussion against Psygnosis, as there are many many
worse companies on the market.

What you should do:

-Buy an IBM or a MAC, and stop posting bloody ennoying messages. Have you ever
played games on these machines ? There is not even one good arcade game, only
boring simulations that are better on the Amiga. If the price to pay is copy
protection, I accept it. IBM and MAC are not good for gaming.

-I bought my amiga in 1986 and never had any problem with my drives. I have
seen no game that destroyed or changed my head drives alignment.

-I have an HD, but I can not put all games on it. The only games that need to
be on a HD, like Sierra games or Stellar 7 or other IBM ports don't woth the
price of their box. If people suppose that everybody has an HD, has an
accelerator card, has a 3000, we won't see games like starglider 2, Carrier
Command that have a better 3D on a simple 68000 amiga than the flight sims on
IBM 486. Programmers must have constraints to be good.

-Stop flaming Psygnosis please, they enjoyed me so much with a lot of their
games... 

-Flame Electronic Arts for Chuck Yeager flight sim awful IBM port (but HD
installable !)

-Flame Dynamix for awful IBM port of Stellar 7 (But Hd installable !)

-Flame US gold for their continuity in selling bad games.
