Going back to Hired Guns again, the difference between 2Mb chipmem
(A500+) and 1Mb chipmem (my mate's A500) was an extra 500k worth of
sound effects, but they added a lot to the game.

Especially the gun that fired with the same sound as the Marines guns
from the 'Aliens' film :) Gave you a feeling of really whoopin some
ass :)
