[comp.sys.amiga.games] Rainbow Arts does it again!

	I think we can all nominate Rainbow Arts as the outstanding 
software company for the amiga now.  They just released Turrican 2.
After several days of playing it, I can make some comments and comparisons
to the first one:

Music:  Very high quality (boasts 7 voices...but I haven't counted this many)

Excellent use of parallex scrolling


Very smooth and fast scholling

Music tunes themselves are not as good a Turrican

The graphics are of incredible quality....your character is animated better
than the first turrican....enemies are great.  

The boards are not as orignal or fun as the first one, but the game is still a 
blast.  Overall, Turrican 2 is better than the first.  In addition to being
the guy, you have a sequence where you are a ship in a SEU (the main guy 
on this part is IMPOSSIBL[C!!). Wonderful game...

So far the top 3 games of the year:

Lemmings
Speedball 2
Turrican 2

If these titles are any indication of what is to come, we are in for a hell
of a year
