653.0. "BLOODMONEY-the best" by KERNEL::TAGGARTN () Thu Nov 02 1989 12:20

    [ Pygnosis the best ]
    
    I have been looking through the conferences and I haven't seen any
    comments on BLOODMONEY the new or newish release from Pynosis. 
    In my opinion one of the most playable & entertaining game on the
    market.  Is this view held by any other purchasers?
    
    Having already accomplished most of the Pygnosis release MENACE
    I was really pleased when I bought their latest creation.  If you
    like MENACE you will like BLOODMONEY more - if you doubt me read
    the software reviews.
    
    The Game - A real modern shoot em up.  A bit like the new XENON
    except mainly horizontal scrolling.  Skill and luck are involved
    in shooting and collecting money.  The more money the more equipment
    can be bought to increase your firepower or extra lives.
    It is a 1 or 2 player game - a lot of fun to play with someone else.
    It has 4 different levels and they aren't easy so they keep me amused
    for hours.
    
    Are there any more brill games like these afore mentioned??

    I really enjoy 3D games but before buying it would like to hear
    some comments
    
    
    Thanks

    I have seen an advert for Infestation - if it looks as good as the
    hype I will buy it.
    
    I think it looks like a cross between STARGLIDER II & DRILLER except
    more exciting and possibly better graphics.

    Yes, my thoughts exactly. The hype looks really impressive but I
    have known this to be misleading so often in the past.
    
    In my own opinion, Capt'n Blood is a good example. GREAT graphics,
    but the gamesplay was too slow. All you C.B-ers out there please
    bear in mind this is just my personal view 8-)
    
    Right now I am into FALCON in a BIG way. Groovy graphics, and fast,
    fast, fast.

    Is Infestation out yet ???
    
    From what I've seen of the ads for new releases from Psygnosis,
    NEVERMIND looks like one of the most interesting.
    
    Bu bear in mind DAMOCLES will soon be out (won't it ???!!!) The
    demo for this game is nothing short of stunning. It's similar to
    mercanary but in solid 3D and with many worlds which you can travel
    between. The worlds are far more realistic, with islands, sunsets
    etc.
