I was at the local arcade yesterday and I saw a game called BlockOut by California Dreams (the same people who made Tunnels of Armaggedon). Is there a GS version available? If there isn't there should be :-) -- /* Robert MacAusland -> macausla@newton.ccs.tuns.ca */

If there isn't there should be :-) In the newest copy of A+/InCider, Programs Plus has a listing for BlockOut GS, and it costs something like $26. That's all I know about it (that is until I get mine in the mail :-). > > -- > /* Robert MacAusland -> macausla@newton.ccs.tuns.ca */ Dale LaFountain dalel@servio.SLC.COM

If there isn't there should be :-) Sure is a GS version. Haven't played it, but I saw it at the local Software Etc. for 34.95, I think. Looked a lot like 3D Tetris. Anyone played it? Is it worth the 35 bucks? (probably less at Programs Plus) >/* Robert MacAusland -> macausla@newton.ccs.tuns.ca */ Jonah Stich jonah@amos.ucsd.edu
