For those (few) of you who have been checking out the records, you may note that for the last 12 months, I have included both the Atari ST and Amiga versions of Robocop onto the same leaderboard.

The overall hope was that with both games being (apparently) identical, this could see them incorporated into a singular leaderboard for greater competition.

I can't, however, ignore that there is ONE pretty important difference between the two. Namely, level 4.

Level 4 has a section which, for reasons unclear, the Amiga version treats as a conveyor belt whereas the Atari ST does not. This results in the Amiga version, for this ONE SINGULAR BLOODY TECHNICALITY, being around 4 seconds faster than the Atari ST.

As such, I've contacted the main overarching admin of 'Robocop' on Speedrun.com and have requested the creation of a separate category for the Amiga version.

It sucks, and I really hoped it wasn't necessary. Hell, it was more of an ego massage to have two different categories (which I didn't want!). Ultimately though, such a massive time difference can't be ignored.
