Subject: Another Vectrex Game Idea

HI. I was talking with a couple of friends the other day and we all wondered if any one has tried to make a first person shooter or adventure game for the Vectrex? I think the Vectrex could easily handle a first person shooter, because you wouldn't have to put the character on the screen. That would leave more space for other effects! The Vectrex's vector grafix would make a unique environment. IT would be all the fun of Doom or Goldeneye minus the gore! This is just a suggestion. I would like to know what all of you think about it. Thanks. Jason

Actually, if you check the emulator ROMs section, there's a 3D game demo in there (laby4) that comes kind of close. Chris Salomon also did another demo that rotates and zooms different kinds of 3D objects, so it's definitely possible...

Hmmm... Now all we need is someone to try it. Thanks
