I have an example of a budget title: 3D Pinball from the Coffee
Break series. Trying to play pinball from the perspective of the ball
itself is just a bad idea. I don't know why I bought into it
(literally). But worse, it wouldn't run properly on my lowly 286-16 (at
a time when 486's were becoming the standard). When you tried to
enter your name in the hall of fame, pressing a single key left an
entire name of that character. (For example, L became LLLLLLLLL.)
I even wrote nasy comments on my registration card, which caused them
to send me an updated version. I was impressed that they did that,
but it didn't work any better than the original.
