This is really going to sound harsh - it's not a critique on the game itself but rather its current implementation. The RAM usage is completely, hugely, insanely beyond anything that even remotely makes sense for an arcade style game. This thing takes multiples of times more RAM that Quake III!!!!!!!! For comparison, take a look at the RAM usage of similar games such as Spheres of Chaos, MAME Blasteroids, Maelstrom. Hate to be a big meanie but that's my true feedback. Alan
