I agree the new color scheme is much easier on the eyes, so thank you for doing that.

I also really like the new Logo.   Nice Job!!

As far as I can remember, the biggest difference is in the music quality, and the fact that everyone has a voice.  Every race has it's own distinct, and (in my opinion), very fitting voice.  Basically the 3DO is better overall.

Drones are the worst, with the Mauler second.

A friend of mine bought it at that, and gave it to me as a Christmas present 2 years later.  Maybe you just got a bad battery with it?

I much prefer the 3DO version too, it adds so much to an already great game.  I also have an original 3DO, and the battery is still fine in mine too.

That was awesome!!  I'd love to see more stuff like that.  

The Fury is my favorite, but I've had the best luck with the Eluder.
