But Mode 2 isn't that bad. I think scrolling has been done in a mode 4 game on the SAM. Defender has a scrolling landscape and looks to be mode 4. I think it sometimes shifts the land at pixel-by-pixel resolution when you move slowly. It looks like it's sometimes 2/3rds of the screen at times, so I imagine Mode 4 scrolling can't be that slow??? Then again, I'm not a programmer, so what do I know!! :-) John.
