Wow, is it really coming out?  I didn't believe i would come out so
soon (this October).  And I didn't think Sega would port VF Remix
too.  Another great thing about the card...it has one digital joystick
port, and TWO sega saturn joystick ports.  <--- NOW THAT, is a good
idea.  Who would want to play VF with a keyboard?  Now only if
you could use the Sega Saturn joystick ports with other games besides
Sega Saturn games (VF Remix, Panzer Dragoon).  Who knows...maybe
its possible.  Diamond is very smart bundling VF Remix and three other
quality titles.  I would say this card looks promising (of course I
would have to see the specs, and how VF holds up on a PC).  And I never
thought I would see the day when VF came to the PC.  Now, if Sony
would port over Tekken and Toshinden with the help of Namco and Takara.
