I'm glad to heart that there are people out there developing games for the NeXT. What I'd really like to see is a NeXT port of Wolfenstein 3D. I got horribly addicted to it during the Christmas holidays. (Nothing like blowing away Nazi's on Christmas day! ;-). I played it on a friend's 386 that had a sound board in it. Perhaps it is the sound that really makes this game stand out. With the fast Postscript graphics and the sound capability, the NeXT seems like the ideal vehicle for this game. Has anyone considered a port of this game to the NeXT? -- Ivan Vesely, Electrical Engineering and Medical Biophysics University of Western Ontario, vesely@next.heart.rri.uwo.ca
