I would like to make a few comments though. A. Blasteroids is done in a 320x200 resolution. It would look like total trash in a monochrome 640x400. It may not be possible to duplicate on an ST, but I do know of another 68000 computer that has animation, color, and sound capabilities to match the arcade game. B. Test Drive ST is not a "duplicate" of Test Drive Amiga. Although I have not experienced these "errors" you claim are ridden throughout the program, I have experienced these differences. The engines "roar" instead of "buzz", the pictures of the cars "shine" instead of "glimmer." The rest of the game is negotiable. Of course, I have heard people say that the IBM EGA version isn't much better. Overall, it is a lousy game. --- |s| SLACK is neither created nor destroyed!
