here is a few stuff which maybe of some interest . 

1) to the game designers : pleas put some screen shots on the back of the 
    box containing the game !!! . 
    there are some few games which have good boxes but are stupid games .
     Ganymed : is it 3-d is it like the arcade game - the empire strikes back ?
               noooooooo .... it is just a copy of "revenge of the mutant 
                camels" on the 64.
     torch <some number> : wow ! it must be like Stealth (broderbund) ....
              hmmm ... what ? it is a Qix clone. 
     CHARON 5 : on the box , one can see a few flying balls . another 
                arkanoid clone ? cant tell, I didnt see it running ..
   so please , a few screen shots is better than a badly drawn picture. 

2) what are the songs suposedly containing demonic messages? 
   I plan to digitize them , invert the data and listen to them . 
   And without busting the heads of my turn table. 

3) Hot licks ....
   nice program,  but it is H E L L to edit the piece of music unless you 
   are full blown musician and use sequencers/quantizers as your second
   mean of expression. 

4) Paladin : 
   yuck ... bad game . I had more excitement watching the paint dry. 
   why ? 
   - to create your character, you have to leave the main program, and get into
     another program (gronk-orama). 
   - and whenever you get into the main prg to play the game, you have to 
     enter the word of the paragraph type of protection . 
   - this game might have tons of windows but it is a dog to use. 
   -WARNING : it is not a Fantazy game !!! it is a war game .
