FIRST WORDS...
Okay, what I want to say first is that Zigor can not comment this september
issue of the major charts.. but be sure he is right back for october!
I think it was a nice month for the N64-Gamers in world.. fantastic
releases and even the long awaited Bomberman 64 was released.
WOW! - the first N64 selectable trainer came from CZN!! We want more!
In IRC many people asked me why I combine the points from
MSFTUG and SONCRAP. And now it is official! I can not combine the points
of the MSFTUG and SONCRAP releases anymore! In the next issue I will split
them! So, Actraiser or whoever is responsible for the two groups merge
them together to one or I will split the points in issue #5
REASON: Although MSFTUG and SONCRAP share the same members - its NOT THE
SAME GROUP! You can not compare it with Anthrox+Swat - AS is ONE group,
they release ALL the games under the same label!
Simple example taken from Amiga - Prestige always released crap games
under the Zenith label and both groups had the same members, too!
The same with MSFTUG+SC! Sorry...
Icarus.

Icarus: " Okay mates.. here we go! the long awaited Bomberman 64!
Again some confusion with the release! first it was broken on
some FTPS - but "Happy End" for AS! and I think its worth to
be game of the month! :). Although its in japanese language
you can find through to menus very good - So 8 Points!!"
