Yeah I enjoyed SWIV and Battle Squadron.  But Xenon had better graphics and
weapons you could buy.  MAME is certainly a better alternative these days.
I still have two working Amiga 500's at home, one hooked up to the TV for
playing on, and the other hooked up to an old Pentium 200 for transferring
games off the net to floppies and for backing up my game floppies :)
