Frontier is HOT

I think Frontier Sucks. It is slow, has bugs, and why must all of our games be
polygon renditions? Why cant we have tasty bitmapped graphics games like Ibm?
something like wingcommaner Privateer or Xwing. Amiga need better programmers.
You can get Wing Commander for the Amiga, and it is texture mapped instead
of plain polygons. The problem is that a standard Amiga 500 just doesn't
have the power to run Frontier or Wing Commander very well. I have a GVP
68030 on my A500+. With the GVP switched on both these games play fast and
smooth, if I switch it off they become slow and jerky.
It would be nice to get all the new games like X-Wing and SimCity 2000 for
the Amiga but there are so many PCs sold now that companies can make more
money selling PC stuff. There are still some very good Amiga programmers.

Apart from graphics, games have gameplay. Different colors are for
different tastes.
