  It is time to review prog, which
appeared on our shelves with you over the past couple of months.



  Most of these prog, were
Electrical logs and demos from
enlight'97 (which took place in August
1997 in Art. Petersburg). Now
let's look at some of them in detail.


                Odyssey # 2


  I do not know when the magazine came out, but to
us he deshel so late, that reluctance to write. Intro does not 
work at all Warehouse 128 kb. machines. In menyuhe is 1

minor glitch. The application can
something useful to find. Immediately evident that in
Journal of a bad designer or do
no. Tekstovichki good, we can read.
Conclusion: A couple of times you can watch.


                Oberon # 4


  It is pleasant to look at a beautifully designed magazine. In 
a couple of cool menyuhe of the effects, the picture in the 
background at rerun change (random

numbers). You have a good artist! But with
listalkoy you ran nonsense. Very much not
pleasant control. Why invent a new chtoto and bad, if there is 
an old, but but comfortable. Texts are not very interestnye,

about ENLIGHT'97 very detailed written.
The application simply awful, nothing new
only one old. Conclusion: We can take
see no hope of interestnye program in the appendix.


  SPECTROFON # 22 # 23


  Good old spectrofon. You're already so was not interested in 
that and write about you feel like. Texts absolutely ... 
Appendix somehow still going. But why should be inserted in 
Annex doom by Digital Reality, which bypassed the whole world

several months before the release of your magazine. It's time 
you have to honestly earned retirement. Conclusion: We buy only 
for the sake of the collection.



               ZX-FORMAT # 7


  This is probably the only magazine that can be considered the 
best among all others. The magazine well is made in terms of 
texts, that's just the music and the application hramaet. Still 
more about him have nothing to say. Bottom line: Check out the 
feature, and some even useful!



                 AMIGA # 1


  And yet another magazine from the series "Making us
nothing, so we begin to rivet magazines. I
so far so I can not unintelligible why
publication of the so-called. I took it on the market just in 
order to read anything about the Amiga, but in fact there about 
this Amiga It's as only two or three articles, all the rest - 
delirium neotrezvevshih user'ov. Mouzon all have somewhere been 
and so on and so on Conclusion: The solid "water." 


               FAULTLESS # 8


  Of course if you compare with predudyschimi
numbers, then this could be even better. But then again 
everywhere these "winkers and "Flying", in general all the 
children of the effects. Almost all programs that are in

Appendix - steal! Hidden part'y
the brakes (on Leningrad slow as
a rabid dog). Texts are not interestnye and
so on ... Conclusion: Faultless must ...


               ZX-REVIEW 5.6

Finally, the guys in the magazine though Mouzon
Insert, and then in the last issue in
coffin - "HI HI sound Hook." The magazine is designed well 
enough. Information is very many, a good application, but only

three programmy.Vot I do not like so
is that when you read the text, too
often included podzagruzka text and it
annoying. (Next to hackers) Are you looking
in the intro how much time eating an attribute effects
effect?? Conclusion: Very interestny magazine.


                Amazing # 2


      Judge you, dear reader!

Well, now let's proshvyrnemsya on toys ...


                X-Reversy


  Great logical game. Very pleased that it can play together 
and even even over a modem. After passing 8_i levels appears 
16_i color picture (Each point with a different color) in the 
intro digital music, etc.


Playable: 60%
Musical accompaniment: 25%
Graphics: 85%


             THE LAST CURIEUR


  Gamers "Prince of Persia" and "King
Valley ", this game should be like. Personally
for me it has not made any impression. First: Just no design. 
Second: When there is no music and still absence of any design 
in this game not easy to play. The game takes about 255

sectors and works only in 128k mode.
Along with the game comes and editor
levels of the game. However for fans of "hodilok puzzle" is 
that it is necessary. 

Playable: 45%
Musical accompaniment: 7%
Graphics: 70%


             Pro Tracker 3.0

How long I've waited for this program, and this finally came. 
Sent it to me, of course same without description, so it had to 
understand myself and the method of "spear". Appearance not 
very happy, too small window editing ringtones. Management

virtually unchanged, except that now
kempston joystick support. Those who have no
kempston'a may have noticed one major glitch. After downloading 
PT3 cursor froze in one spot, and with him nothing is 
impossible have been done, except to go to someone who

is kempston and set_up'e turn it off.
Easy work rose slightly increased dvigalka notes, there are 
"hot" keys. You can go into some sub-items without leaving the 
edit mode. In the editing window, there is another

column, whose appointment is still
I do not understand.

  Added many new features
was very convenient to work with
functions as:

              TRANSPOSITION

              MOVE
 Vobschem the words do not tell, it should be
just to see. And who will find a full description and send it 
to me, he will receive a fresh Room Amazing'a and a bottle of 
beer. 

Information I no longer have to
new appointments.
