The display of various games you ought to be able to gauge from
screenshots on various websites, HOL (Hall of Light) for example. The
Amiga I'm writing this on goes through a Voodoo 3 3000 graphics card which
gives a very nice 2D display, but for games I put the Composite signal
through a TV card and view it as a screen on the workbench, as most games
do not have retagetable graphics. I found the quality of the composite
lead makes a significant difference, but obviously you're better off
picking up an Amiga RGB to scart lead and putting it through your TV or
Amiga monitor.
All the best,
Angus Manwaring. (for e-mail remove ANTISPEM)
