However, I've not had a problem using the Xcode project that comes with the libsdl tarball.

Didn't get a chance yesterday, will today hopfeully. Two games I miss from the PS2: Rez and the origin Fantacusion launch title, which I enjoyed ( and which would be perfect iPhone/Wii fodder). > If SWMBO wasn't watching Brief Encounter I'd start it up on the Xbox > myself... My mian hassle is that I rarely get use of the main screen these days, and retreating to my upstairs study isn't always an option either as can be seen us dumping Caz to look after thekidd and dog whilst I swan about enjoying myself - in fact, that is precisely what it actually is doing so o can't complain much. It's why I use emulators on my laptop a lot: can still be downstairs, main screen still in family use but I can have the odd game semi-privately. Would live to put Pikmin on it too, but apparently there's no sound in the emulators yet. Cheers, Ian

The controls might have been a wee bit hinky (the camera angle had a habit of changing, which affected the direction you were running - sub-optimal in the middle of a jump) but the game itself was beautiful.
