Hi Charles, Something like that. Not only that but I do recall back when I did the survey on weather MOTA should be designed as a side-scroller or an FPS a couple of people said something to the effect that side-scrollers were old fassioned and that we should get with the times. That's a horrible misrepresentation of side-scrollers in general since I've played many good side-scrollers over the years ranging from very simple to very complex. The only thing I can account for their misconception would be simple ignorance of what is available for mainstream gamers. To use your potato chip example it would be like saying there is only a couple of ways to make potato chips so no one should try and make more potato chips using a different method they didn't know about.

That's how I see it, anyway. > > --- > Shepherds are the best beasts! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
