Hi Gregf. Thank you for taking the time to explain the details about this game. This shows my misunderstanding of the required effort. I thought it would be a single rom dump, but that's why I'm just a consumer.
If I may, ask a few more
1) Given the many times over our current hardware is compared to this particular game, does that help our chances of getting this or the PCI subsystem has to be taken care of first
2) Will the modem part (I guess to authorize a system or course) cause issues as well?
Thanks again
