Hi Phil, Thanks for the information. That really helps.
That said, my feeling is the same as yours about rewriting them. Jim Kitchen has done a nice job on his football and baseball games that it really isn't necessary to rerite Any Night Football or World Series Baseball at this point unless someone really wanted those exact games. I myself am not a huge sports fan so Jim's games are perfectly fine for me personally. However, I will keep Any Night Football and World Series Baseball under consideration for the moment. To be honest when I threw this suggestion out there I thought people were going to make suggestions like Elite, Facing the Empire, and a few other Dos games of that sort where there is no Windows equivalent. I wasn't really expecting to rewrite games like Any Night Football because there are currently decent alternatives to them in the form of Jim's football and baseball games. Cheers!
