Total Posts: 3 | I've been wondering about this while I progrma my new strategy game based on a story I'm writing called "Divine Conflict"- what kind of games would people like to see made for the 83+ lately?
(Oh, and BTW, if you haven't seen the new Maxcoderz 4-level greyscale app for the 83+, check it out at http://www.maxcoderz.com |

I don't care much about grayscale since it flickers on 83x (yes, even +) and tires your eyes. I'd however love to see some strategy or a nice shooter. Warcraft adaptation would be awesome, Contra would be phat too. But anyways, go on with your own ideas, I'm sure they'll come out better then reimplementing an old game. Good luck!
Oh yes, I've seen gray4 routine, which is indeed impressive. However due to you know what lcd driver on 83x real gray isn't possible. This gray4 eats too much power and only works great on fresh batts. How much computing power can you devote to the game itself and still have decent looking gray4?
