Well ay least 320x480 or one of those other lower-than-
640x480-but-higher-than-320x200 modes.  That would still
be a VAST improvement over the 320x200 MCGA mode
that all action PC games have been using for years.  Also it
shouldn't be TOO difficult as the above listed modes are in
fact VGA standards.
