Joysticks?  I heard that the new version of BLAZEMONGER won't require
joysticks.  It comes with a revolutionary new interface which must
be surgically implanted in the playing hand of the owner (it's a cheap
copy-protection scheme, but it works).  Anyway, you have the implant
done, and plug your hand into the parallel port (optionally, you can
purchase an ethernet implant for the Cray Y-MP emulator owners out there).

Sure it does.  It's just that they are all intentional.

It's fairly obvious that you are using the CHEAT mode, and, as such, are
beneath contempt.  (Besides, I've already finished the pit level [sector
7.2.543.7466.13244.7 was VERY tough, though]).

You WILL need the FULL Cray Y-MP kit if you want the ethernet implant
for BM III.  Sorry.

OK, I'll admit that DM and CSB were nice diversions (whilst I ate my lunch
yesterday), but NOTHING, I repeat NOTHING compares to BLAZEMONGER III!
Finally a game with some MEAT to it!
