From: "Bob Mende [NB]" <mende@aim.rutgers.edu> I have been reading reviews on the net for a while and many of them say that the program does not use the potential of the amiga. I have to make one comment about this type of statment. Being a long time user of a TRS-80 model I, I learned that a game(program) does not need flashy graphics to be both enjoyable and exciting. When I got my Amiga I decided to get a machine that was the most powerful thing on the market, since I would not be getting a new one for a while. There is a trickling of programs out at this time and I have seen and read reviews on most of them. The comments that I hear from many amiga users is `It does not use the Amiga's full capabilities.' The other comment I hear is `This is a direct port from the ST' [Please don't start a flame war over this :-)]. I want to just say that a program does not need spectacular graphics to be enjoyable. I would much rather buy a program that is enjoyable than buy one that has wonderful graphics. I do not mean that developers should forget graphics, but I don't think that a program that does not use that full Amiga potential should be panned.
