1 A its funny bitsand it did have a story, but I'msorry, this film failed to hitthe mark with me. The funniestbit was where Steve said "Don'tforget to secure your condom!".Ideal family viewing. AlthoughMum's would probably enjoy this film more.

1 4 'Dance in Cyberspace' is notonly one of the first ravevideos to come out, but offersthe best, rave musicallyspeaking, of both worlds, thereare some absolutley mentalhardcore sections and to balenceif off, there are somewonderfully trancey bits. Thegraphics go extremely well withthe music, there are strobetunnels etc for the hardcoreand nice fractal bits and colourwobbly bits for the ambientparts - the price of this videois around the `10.99 mark andwell worth it.

1 / This record is just your basicnutty acid track with 3 mixes (Ibrought this on a white label soI do not have the names of themixes but I prefer A1 and AA1(partley because A2 has"Sh*t" beeped out and AA2 doesnot have any lyrics at all.))This record has a good shockrating,especially if your mum isvery catholic (as mine is) &basically, if you don't likeacid you will not like thisrecord - if you do then I adviseyou go out and find a recordshop that has it (hint:Woolworths, Menzies or Our Priceetc are not likely to stockthis particular record!).

The gameis very easy to get into andyoung children will probablyenjoy playing at as well. Theusual options are there, such asre-define keys, demo mode etc.There are loads of levels and abonus stage. The whole thing isgreat fun and worth adding toyour collection. Overall: 80%

1 I recived a new batch ofdemos from 'TRIAD DEVELOPMENTS'this month. This is a new democrew. There were 6 demos on thetape, Train Spottin' and NSD1-5. There is nothing new inthese demos, although they arequite enjoyable. To be honest, Idon't think young childrenshould view them, due to thecontent of the scrolls. I.E,packed with swearing. Other thanthat little problem, theprograms are enjoyable. Fullreviews of these programs nextmonth.
