- The attitude that I am carrying is this: if the Lynx dies, so what? I have
- had a Lynx since they first came out... There are still a number of games on
- the Lynx that are very original and well done. Also, the Lynx by far has the
- best multiplayer action (actually, I probably log most of my playing time
- in multiplayer games). 6 player Battlewheels is amazing! (OK, I'll admit
- to having only played Battlewheels with five players). I've played Slime World
- with 7 people, and that was quite a bit of fun. Plus four player Xenophobe and
- Zarlor Mercenary and Warbirds...
-
- Yes, I would like to see more games for my Lynx. But as a multiplayer platform
- it goes relatively unchallenged, and many of the current games are excellent.
- Will the system die? Sure, if the morons running Atari keep things up as they
- have been. I'll still be happy with the games I've got though...
