CDXL is still better than AVI intros on the PeeCEEs, AVI needs a bloody pentium
to even get close to voice sync with the graphics...

CDXL runs better on a CD32 with 4Mb of FastRAM in an SX1 or SX32... 
the reason it look crap in ROBOCOD and SOCCERKID is that its been blown up,
so the PIXELS have been stretched! ... Bad Move!

Dunno what format the MicroCosm intro was in, but the voices were obviously 
dubbed, either from german or something???

Still it looks good!

Checkout Tower Assault for a Brill game, and over 7 Minutes of CDXL intro 
developed by TEAM17. Its excellent.
