First off, this is 6 disks, not 2 บ บ like the diz says. Secondly, they are all not compressed the way they บ บ should be, which is why when you downloaded this you might have been บ บ like "holy shit!" Thirdly, the arj.exe and the install.exe each have a บ บ virus, one has taipan the other the burglar virus. Still you don't need บ บ either of those, just arj x -y -v to a directory, it don't matter. An บ บ earlier version of this game was put out in a package called `Triple บ บ Threat.' บ บ บ บ Anyway, you probably shouldn't download this in the first place, บ บ because once you go to play the game, you'll see it sucks and it was a บ บ waste of time. Mainly the reason for it sucking is because you can't บ บ control the movement of the plane. That's right, none of the k/b keys บ บ work for movement, although they work with firing (and so does the บ บ mouse). There is no configuring to change it and it's supposed to work บ บ with the arrow keys (numlock on or off made no diff). But for your บ บ knowledge (or something) this is a plane game. You have your plane in บ บ front of you and you see enemies approach in the distance and they fire บ บ at you and you must avoid it. It's not a 3d game, it's more of the บ บ asteroids type. The sound is quite loud, but does help add a little บ บ something to this cheapy game. บ บ บ บ RATING : 35/100 บ บ บ วฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤถ บ บ บ ________________________/ฏ|__/| ___________ บ บ \___ \ __ / __/ __/ / |/ ____/ __/_ บ บ | __/ _/ _/ _| \__ \ \/ / ) / _| / บ บ |___|\__\ \________ /___\__\__ \______\ บ บ +--------\___/๗e๗/aL!\/--------/_____\-----+ บ บ Politicards (c) Masque Publishing [1/6] บ บ +------------------------------------------+ บ บ บ บ Filenames : POLIPSG?.ZIP บ บ บ บ To put it short, it's 21 different games of solitaire with the บ บ ability to have your cards filled with the faces of your favorite บ บ political person (pff).

However I assue you the บ บ Coredump version works fine, and at least you can get sound with that บ บ one. This one has no sound, even though it's included, you can't บ บ actually set it up because the install.exe is missing files you need in บ บ order to configure it. Here's the review from issue #36 : บ บ บ บ "Crusader is back, and improved. While you may go and call this บ บ Crusader 2, it's really a little stretch to do that. This game is บ บ pretty much exactly like the original, except a few minor improvements, บ บ new levels, different exclamations from the enemies, smarter artificial บ บ inteligence of the enemies, and limits on your animation (bad). While บ บ some of you remember this game as "that one you could blow up everything บ บ in" you will soon find this one loses some of that fun because of the บ บ fact that you are limited on ammunition of even your main gun. For บ บ those who didn't play the first one, the game idea is simple. It's a 3D บ บ overview of rooms, you walk around, shoot people, shit that you wish you บ บ could do in real life. You have tons of weapons to pick up, and so many บ บ things to blow up, you could spend your entire life blowing up every บ บ single thing. If you liked the first one a lot, then I still recommend บ บ getting this one, although it just isn't as good and simple as the first บ บ one. บ บ บ บ If you thought the first one was so-so-good, then well you really บ บ don't need to check this one out, because it isn't much different. I บ บ would have thought they could have made some more improvements to the บ บ game, add some better features, and improve it a little more than they บ บ did. When you hit "s" it also will make an annoying beep sound (it gets บ บ annoying trust me) if there is nothing to use it for. Also, they didn't บ บ really improve on the game engine, which although good, could have used บ บ some bug-like fixes. Still a great game, make sure ya get the save game บ บ fix (which is just a stupid .com file to make a dir "savegame" in your บ บ game dir), and the music addon for music. Oh, one more thing, the บ บ install.exe you are supposed to run to set the sound, it takes quite a บ บ while to load, so don't go rebooting your machine when all it does is บ บ sit their for about anywhere from 10-20 seconds with a black screen, the บ บ regret.exe will also take quite a while to load up, just be patient. บ บ Also, there are some rumors about this being a `beta.' บ บ บ บ As far as I can tell, the game runs fine, exactly like the first บ บ did, and there really is NO PROOF that this is not the final. Oh and บ บ ONE more thing, on level 1, at one point in time you will be given a บ บ code #121 for those keypads, the correct # is really #122, I don't know บ บ if the game was designed to do that, but it's not #121. บ บ บ บ RATING : 81/100" บ บ บ บ Welp this one is the supposed final, so if you didn't get it the บ บ first time, get it now, and see if you can get some kind of sound addon, บ บ because without one it will be quite dull, although it will move a lot บ บ faster. Rating drops down a few points because there is no sound. บ บ บ บ RATING : 78/100 บ บ บ วฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤถ บ บ บ ______ ____/\_____/\_. ___ _____ __ บ บ /___ \/ ___/\_ _/ | \_ || _/ \/ \ บ บ | / / _/ \ / _/ |/\ / `' \ \ / บ บ :| \ \ ' \/ |/ ' | |/ \: บ บ :|__|\ \_____/ |\_______\____/\__/\ \ บ บ :[FF]:\__/::::/____|:::::::::::::::::::\_/ บ บ *-REFLUX 1996 PROUDLY PRESENT-* บ บ [========================================] บ บ [ M4 (c) DEADLY GAMES ] บ บ [=[09/14/96]=====================[01/10]=] บ บ บ บ Filenames : RLX-M4??.ZIP บ บ บ บ Well this game just about sucks balls better than that hooker last บ บ night.

All kinds of missions to play with this บ บ jetfighter sim. From intercepting russian Migs to bombing runs at sea, บ บ it's all here. You'll definately wanna break out the Sidewinder Pro for บ บ this, as it makes full use of the POV hat, rudder, and all 4 buttons. บ บ Too bad it didn't have any way to configure the 4 assignable buttons, บ บ but we can't have everything I guess. If you got other flight equip, บ บ like pedals and etc, it'll support that too. บ บ บ บ There's quite a few controls to mess with, anything from radar บ บ functions to in-flight refueling mechanisms to counter measures. You บ บ also get to fly with a wingman which talks to you in that leet jetjockey บ บ slang. You can tell him what to do as well, like break right/left, go บ บ after certain targets, cover your tail, and etc. The speech wasn't บ บ ripped either, so you've got all kinds of radio chatter in the บ บ background too. บ บ บ บ Speaking of sound, man, never let someone get a radar lock on you, บ บ it's REAL annoying, and maybe that's the point. :) The directx sound บ บ screwed up on my system, garbling it, and making real nasty screeching บ บ sounds, but I don't think it was the games fault. I'll have to go บ บ through and screw with my drivers. Anyway, the grafix were great, บ บ smooth even on this shitty dram stealth. Of course if it's choppy for บ บ you, it's got a couple grafix switches to mess with like detail levels, บ บ and high/low res. บ บ บ บ All in all, a great game if you've got the time to sit down and บ บ figure out the controls, and learn the cockpit (huh huh he said CockPit) บ บ and HUD. บ บ บ บ As a rule, I *really* don't like to give out anything higher than an บ บ 85, but this one, in my book, has earned it.

I thank everyone who sent me mail about this game. บ บ Now, what about the game?? It ROCKS! I'm not sure what kind of scrolling บ บ it's called, but imagine a 3rd person scrolly adventure like Sonic, or บ บ Pitfall, but where you can turn all 4 directions and have your back or บ บ front to the camera as well. Combine that with camera zooming at the บ บ right times and that's how BUG! works. The basic idea is to walk around บ บ this 3d world and kill these other bugs by jumping on top of them Mario บ บ style. บ บ บ บ You're also sposed to grab stuff along the way. Gameplay was just บ บ like most scrollies, with the exception that you can go towards the บ บ camera and away from it. The only real bitch I have with it, is that บ บ when you die, you have to start all the way back at the very beginning บ บ of the level. You'd think they woulda put some kind of save spot or บ บ something in it. (Maybe there is, but I was only able to play the 1st บ บ level, cuz it's late, I need sleep, and this needs to be done :) No บ บ problems with speed or anything else with this one though. Ran great in บ บ a hefty size window. You can play it in a few different screen modes, บ บ windowed, or about 7 full screen modes, going all the way up to 640x480. บ บ You must run it in 256 color, and it wont let you play unless 95's in บ บ 8bit mode. I can't give this one a 90+ on the points scale, cuz it just บ บ sucks too bad when you die, but it's a keeper! บ บ บ บ POINTS : 86 - You really oughtta leech this just to see something บ บ new and exciting! บ บ บ วฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤถ บ -<*><*> THE GAME OF THE WEEK <*><*>- บ วฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤถ บ บ บ - This week's GOTW goes to RAZOR for SUPER EURO FIGHTER 2000, for Win บ บ 95.

week's issue (I knew I wasn't going nuts) there were two games บ บ in the Bubble Bobble Combo, one was the game Bubble Bobble (which I บ บ remembered but didn't play) and the other was some rainbow game (and บ บ an enhanced version of it). The .exe's were bb.exe and rainbow.exe, บ บ and when I ran the bb.exe it just stayed in dos, so that is why I used บ บ the rainbow.exe, because I was in the /game directory, and forgot บ บ about the bubble.bat. บ บ บ บ Anyway, Bobble Bubble is that game that was on Nintendo and was like บ บ really fun and stuff and that we all loved to play for hours on end. บ บ The only bad thing about these games is your limited to the # of บ บ continues and so you can't just beat the game if you played it for 5 บ บ hours, you'd actually have to be one hell of a kick ass player. The บ บ other bad thing about it is the controls, but I mentioned that บ บ already. บ บ บ บ The correct rating for the package + the 2 fixes is 52/100. บ บ บ วฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤถ บ <*>LEGAL MUMBO JUMBO<*> บ วฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤถ บ บ บ THIS MAGAZINE IN NO WAY WHATSOEVER, CONDONES THE PIRATING, STEALING, OR บ บ ANY OTHER ILLEGAL MEANS OF OBTAINING SOFTWARE.
