Yeah i reckon.

Just googled RGP and it appears he is working on software for STARS as well. Which is another game i have.

However, mine is running a Bally -17 MPU. Dunno if that will make a difference or not.

Very clever - and it also breathes new life into these older titles.

So was it the case back then where 8k of memory wasn't cost effective compared to the 4k which they used?.

I'm guessing Williams started using more memory with games like Flash etc. Hence the better light shows.

Yeah i take my hat off to the guy. Stepping up to the plate for some games that don't get as much recognition as others.

Might need a hand from you guys once i get the rom code. Will need to find someone who can burn me a couple of 2732's, and will also need a little help with jumpers  ^^^

Yeah I was thinking the same thing!. It has a similar bonus light set up as Hot Hand. You could make the lights dance around like crazy!. So cool.

Of course you know there will be some dick bag who will get upset seeing that it's a Bally game  ::)
