Maybe it was down to a lot of people using stuff like SCADs (which sounded like a disease at the best of times) which produced flawed software (and similarly GamesMaster had some vile limitations) instead of coding their own from scratch, but the fact remains that most SAM games weren't exactly stellar.
-------- Although without either of these, there would have been even less software for people to complain about - as coding a game fully from scratch was such a task for most people....
