After that though it started giving me that Zen-like trance I get from only a few games, only a lot more intense. I can get so lost in it that when I miss the ball it's like being startled awake. |

And I've said it before and I will say it again: a non-"high resolution" spinner works JUST FINE... --- End quote --- Two opinions you're welcome to have. But people who disagree with the first probably disagree with the second. Some people don't mind a 400x300 picture zoomed in to fill the screen; others demand a 1600x1200 (or whatever their screen is) or nothing. Some don't mind the non-high res spinners on high res games; others... do mind. If you liked the original game and it's controls, you'll need a high res spinner; otherwise you'll be playing with the 400x300 pixelated spinner on the 1600x1200 game. IMO, while you might be able to play arkanoid okay with low-res spinners, it's not the same, and not as well, as with a high res spinner. If you can't tell the difference, then, sure, you don't need the HRS. If you can tell, and it matters to you, then get the HRS. |

Makes sense of course, if you love the game than absolute authenticity is paramount. For me, Defender/Stargate control placement MUST BE EXACT (not a big deal to a lot of people), so I see what you mean. I am just surprised so many people who aren't selling high-res spinners love Arkanoid. I wonder if it's Andy's favorite game? ;) Eric. |
