Don't need to watch the video comparison here, friend and i were huge fans of the coin-op, he had a Speecy, myself a C64, so both home conversions were bought and played by ourselves and we both agreed, good as Speccy version was, the C64 version really was superb.
You peeked Rogue Tropper. 
My god, considering the hardware limitations that's a damn impressive conversion. Loving the music and sound effects especially.

Yeah but it has been made available since and it was finished.
Yeah technically it was only released as a PD game in 98, so it brings a new area of games into the 'wars' if you go that route!
