- I've had a similar problem with Actraiser for the SNES. The scene where
- you drop from the Sky palace to the ground to fight monsters really
- started messing me up after we got a 27" screen. It only last for a few
- moments but your head really starts to spin. I think the screen size
- (or how close your sitting to it) might be the key. On the 13 inch I
- never was very impressed by that scene in Actrasier on the 27" WOW!
