Chris Martin asked a good question that warrants answering here: Yes, you can upload CD jackets in lieu of box covers if no box cover is on file. (However, if a box cover later gets submitted, the CD jacket will be rejected.)

Wondering why we've been a little quiet lately regarding news? It's because we're working on some nice changes for MobyGames. Sorry to keep you in suspense, but you won't be disappointed!

You owe it to yourself to read George Shannon's review of Ultima 9.

This isn't directly related to gaming in particular, but I just have to ask: Is anyone else as cheezed off as I am about mainstream media's insistence on calling malicious computer users "hackers"? Hackers are harmless -- Crackers is the proper term for the people behind all the DoS attacks. --Jim

One of the things we put a heavy emphasis on creating MobyGames was letting anyone say anything about any PC game ever released. Users can review games they've played 10, 15, even 20 years ago. It's a great forum to speak your mind and learn what others have to say about the history of games on the PC.

That being said, Tomer Gabel has written a review for FIFA 98 that says "Soccer is lame!". Soccer is lame? Let's see a few counter-reviews, people! :-)

As a North American demo scene alum, I'm pleased to announce that we've added Crusader: No Regret to the Game Giveaway. --Jim

Even though he didn't like the game itself, Tomer Gabel pushed us over the 800 mark with his entry of Star Goose. Good work, everyone!

Added Warlords II to the Game Giveaway.

The Star Control Sequel petition over at www.star-control.com continues to grow. Have you signed it yet?

A mint copy of It Came From The Desert has been added to the Game Giveaway.

Unfortunately, people have been bitten twice by this in the last two days, so we thought we'd mention it again: Before you enter a game in the Add Game wizard, use the quick keyword search to verify that the game you're entering isn't already in the database. We do not perform any explicit name/title checking when you add a game; this is because we accept entries where the name of a game may match something in the database, but the game itself could be completely different. So check before you click!

We're very pleased to add Flight Unlimited to the Game Giveaway.
