"But how would we do the graphics over the network?" "We'd have to do-- build half of it on the C64" " and then the other half on our network." " Yes." "And the C64, that can manage the scenery graphics and the player movement, and we can manage the user's location, whether or not they can-- they can see each other, the score, all that sort of thing." "And we'd have to build a protocol between the user's computer and ours" " so that we can control the game graphics." " Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course." "As long as they're short, encoded instructions."

"We're all guessing in the dark to a certain extent." "Yeah, well, I have no idea what consumers want and I'm sick and tired of trying to figure it out."
