Yes, and let's make one other thing perfectly clear.  There was
another "large mistake" made in this issue as well.  Mr. Horwitz
prefers to be known as 'Jer' instead of Jeremy.  We incorrectly
published his reviews under the name 'Jeremy'.  For this, we
apologize.  We are also making it clear in issue #8 of Game Bytes that
these corrections are necessary to satisfy the reviewer and to put
forth correct information.  It is also for these two mistakes that Mr.
Horwitz has chosen not to contribute his reviews to Game Bytes readers
in the future.

We're sorry for the inconvenience these two errors may have caused any
readers.

In the latest issue of EGM Time Gal was featured as one of the future releases
for Sega-CD(hooray!). I guess either Renovation or Sega will be porting it
over. Hope they keep the Japanese vocal song though, but I doubt they will...

	Nope, it can't be replaced quite so easily as the 2600 one.  It has
a funny little 2 pronged plug.  Anyone know where I can get more of these?

Night Trap is innovative, but in the entirely wrong way -- it is an attempt to
force CD-ROM video capabilities into a traditional game concept.  Repeating
the same video sequences over and over with very limited control?  Uhhh, maybe
not.

Sherlock Holmes and Loom are both more in the right direction although both
are limited, being first efforts.

Yes, *we* have kept up with the times, so *we* know that Atari scrapped
the *Panther* last year and is working on a new system, code-named

Oops! Look like you forgot one important thing, Steve! What's going to be doing
the compression in a Turbo Duo? It has no internal CPU. Looks like the Sega CD
wins in this category, with its 12.5 MHZ 68000 CPU.

Hmm, I was just presuming that the upgrade card wouldn't include any games,
but I guess it might.  Seems like a dumb idea, though -- TG-CD owners probably
already have Y's and one or both Bonks games and Ninja Spirit.  That leaves
only Gate of Thunder as new, so maybe they'll include it.

Just some stupid ramblings:

Has anyone noticed that the narrator's voice in Sol-Feace sounds familiar?
I'll be damned if it isn't George Tekei (Mr. Sulu) from Star Trek.  Also,
doesn't the Sega CD intro sound a bit like Joan Jett's song "Crimson &
Clover"?

I've been trying to make SFII gifs. But I've run into an unanticipated problem.
 It seem that my frame capture can't propery received the signals that come out
 of the video out ports of the SNES. The same thing happens with Genesis. Appar
ently, the signals these systems are putting out are not exactly like an RF sig
nal or a signal the VCR would put out. I suppose I could make a tape of the SFI
II stuff and then grab it, but I would probably lose some picture quality that
way. Maybe this is why we haven't seen more SFII gifs.
