Okay, if I can get some opinions on some games I've been thinking about buying, I'd really appreciate it. Here are the following: StarFlight, put out by Electronic Arts. Wizardry I or II, put out by Sir Tech USA NetTrek: The Real Version, put out by Premier Technology Or, if you feel strongly about another game you've played, I'm open to suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Well, StarFlight is a good game in a game mechanics sense, but it is a direct port from ibm-land, and suffers from laziness on the part of the authors. IBM CGA graphics are mapped directly to the mac screen, and they are UGLY. (they map 4 mac pixels to 1 ibm pixel, so everything is big and chunky) Dan Walkowski Univ. of Illinois, Dept. of Comp.

Wizardry I and II are great games if you are into fantasy games like D & D. I have both and have loved them. I also enjoyed the other three that were released for the Apple. If it's your genre, buy it. Jon
