Quoted from Trekkie1978:

I didn't want to imply that Lonnie was lazy. It's just that when you look at the track record, Lyman just pumps out code.

Lyman doesn't "pump out" code.His titles suffer the same delays(about 2 years)as every other Stern title.

Quoted from Trekkie1978:And as others have said, where would Star Trek be today if Lonnie stayed on it?

Probably about the same.Maybe it would have taken longer but the designers design the entire game.Shots,modes,point values.If Steve Ritchie puts an insert on a play field its up to the programmer to IMPLEMENT Steves idea.

Quoted from Trekkie1978:Just seeing what Lyman has done with the Walking Dead, I now want one and I've never seen 30 seconds of the show!

It still took 10 months ,almost a year,and its not complete.Its good code for what, IMHO, is not a great shooter.I.E the software saved the game,somewhat.Nobodys gonna confuse it with LOTR or SM.
