Good ol' Driller will always be my first 3D game. The novelty of 3D graphics that were more than the plain wireframes of Elite, was such that we put up with the 1 FPS framerate for hours on end. I wish I could regain some of that wonde

If that was a painting then surely I would have some remote idea of what it represents. As it is, I (and many others) don't.
