Bud Selig 64 In this game you play as Bud Selig, commissioner of Major League Baseball. After being named official commissioner of baseball after several years of being "interim commissioner" your job is to try to get baseball back on track after the 1994 players' strike. Your moves are: Sit and do nothing - watch as Wayne Huizenga, owner of the Florida Marlins, sells off all his good players after winning the 1997 World Series so he can sell the team. Then proceed to do nothing whatsoever about it Hog the credit - after Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa revive national interest in the game, proceed to act like you yourself revived the game by doing such things as: Radical realignment - figuring that interleague play was a success, propose a plan to realign all 30 of MLB's teams solely by geographical boundaries. Explain that teams such as the Yankees and Mets, the Cubs and White Sox, and the Reds and Indians can play twelve times a year, completely forgetting that such rivals as the Indians and White Sox would be in separate leagues and that the Cubs and Mets would probably never play each other despite being historic rivals. Even worse realignment - propose a plan to realign the majors into six divisions of four teams and one division of six. That's three divisions in the AL and four in the NL. The wild card in use in the AL, not in the NL. Be sure to put the Cincinnati Reds in the Southeast. Back it up by saying it "fits well with time zones" and that "the Rangers don't have to play in the AL West anymore" while in fact making yourself look like a complete ass. Bash Pete Rose - refuse to even think about reinstating Pete Rose or make him eligible for the Hall of Fame despite his baseball accomplishments; that combined with your realignment plan will make it clear you hate the Cincinnati Reds. Ignore the game's economic problems - since 1993, several small market teams have fallen out of contention because they can't afford good players. Act like you don't give a fuck. Continue to support the status quo despite the fact that only a half dozen teams will have a glimmer of hope by 2005 at this rate, unless one of those teams is the Milwaukee Brewers, in which case you try to correct that with another bizarre, completely irrelevant realignment plan that involves putting the Cincinnati Reds in a division with three British soccer teams. Lie through your teeth - claim that the major leagues WILL go to an unbalanced schedule, while you probably don't even know what the hell an unbalanced schedule is. Play with people's minds about switching the Diamondbacks and Devil Rays between leagues despite the fact that you probably couldn't guess what league either team is in in fewer than three tries. Cite the fact that attendance is slightly up overall in the majors as a sign that everything is OK despite the fact that it obviously isn't. Whenenver you're presented with a problem, counter by proposing to realign the teams based solely on the number of letters in their nicknames or something. Your ending depends on how much havoc you wreak on the game; beware, though, that if people get too fed up with you, they will vote you out of office and elect someone with half a brain commissioner, like Bob Costas, who will undo all the horrible damage you did and restore order to the game. If you win the game, all but eight or so teams, the Yankees, Indians, Red Sox, Braves, Mets, Cardinals, Diamondbacks, and of course the Brewers, remain in the game while all the others go under, including the Cincinnati Reds. Who wouldn't want at least 54 copies of this game?

Emerald Lynk 64 In this game, you are Emerald Lynk, Sethra's other parakeet, who is less well-known, and you are mad. Shnoo gets all the attention of Game Ponders, and she has her own BBS, and you are insanely jealous of her, so you run away. However, Sethra sends herself out to look for you, and living on your own is much more difficult. Every day, birds and other creatures will come and try to hurt you, the domesticated parakeet, and you will face stray cats and dogs as mini-bosses. The first boss you face is a drug dealer, who tries to experiment with a new drug by injecting you with it. The next boss is a police officer, who wants to take you to the Humane Society, which will probably put you to sleep. After that, you move to a junkyard, where the junkyard dog is there to make your life a living hell. In the fourth round, you face Sethra herself, who tries to capture you again and bring you home. However, no matter what, she succeeds; you come home and fight the first bout with your enemy Shnoo. The fifth round sees a BBS battle between Emerald Lynk and regulars at the Shnooworld BBS; the boss of the stage is Thawhidol. The battle carries over to the BBS, where if you defeat Bugforest, Kiera will not ban you. If you are banned the game is over; however, win and Shnoo will challenge you to an Arena Fight. A loss means banishment from Shnooworld and you have to go back to Round 5; win, and Shnoo will turn into Super Shnoo and stage the final battle. In the final battle, you see some weapons of old - eggs, Weebles, Dove soap, and Wite-out pens. If you defeat Super Shnoo the BBS is yours and Shnoo becomes food for Ozzie the Cubby Bear; however, lose and Ozzie feasts on you. You would have to be insane not to want at least 423 copies of this game!

ErniePants's Ezboard RPG Play the game as ErniePants, and the object is to take over as many EZBoards as possible. The game is scored by points, and you earn 40 points every time you take over a BBS plus one for every unique user there (since some people have multiple user names.) However, you earn only 20 points for every non-game related BBS you take over, and only 10 if the BBS is made up of Hare Krishnas who are convinced you're the Chosen One. (You still get the per-user bonus, though, so it might be worth it to take over the Top 10 BBS's.) Your strategy is to go on the BBS's main forum and to declare to everyone that you're taking over the BBS, and then you have to release your firepower onto them. The BBS is yours if they give up, grant you admin, and allow you to do whatever you want with the background. Accumulating 15,000 points opens up the second series - a chance to take over the Game Pond and all its users' own BBS's. You earn 100 points per BBS taken over that isn't the Game Pond, unless the BBS is owned by outcastdeathspork, DEVILRAYS, JamesfromPokemon, Flying Omelette, WhatAboutRaven2, GARDENHO, or Setzer the Great. Fight a BBS war against these seven players; win and you have a chance to take over the Game Pond itself. The key to taking over the Game Pond is to be vicious enough that Kiera, BJ, Sethra, Camira, and CB007 fear you, but sane enough that they let you stick around. However, once you take over the BBS, you have to face the spammers. After Kiera turns the BBS over to you, she leaves you a little surprise - Thawhidol, GH64, Bugforest, Peace and Quiet, and other storied spammers are let back in to wreak havoc on you, and you can't just ban them since they all have cable modems. You have to send them a virus and destroy their cable modems and then EZBoard will delete them. But remember, like old adversary DEVILRAYS, you're very greedy and aren't satisfied with owning the BBS's you own... ...so you decide to take over the main EZBoard BBS, which will give you control over all EZBoards. Gain admin powers over that BBS grudgingly, and then face the EZBoard staff in arena combat. SethraShnoo, one of your minions, will ref your series of four Arena fights against the EZBoard staff. The final boss of the game is ezLarry, who has extra-strong attacks. Defeat him and EZBoard is yours; lose and the BBS's go back to their rightful owners and you go to jail on the planet Venom forever and ever, where you can spend the rest of your days with all the Omni-Wonders of the Universe.

Ezboard Arena Play as any Ezboarder, and enter the world of the Ezboard Arena. However, the Arena isn't the only way to accumulate power in this game - be a part of the ACFLM (Arena Combat Federation and League of Masterminds) and earn Starbucks (1 Arena Point = 200 Starbucks.) These are the way to earn Arena Points: Random Draw Fights - if SethraShnoo picks your name, fight to the finish against your randomly-selected opponent, but be wary - you can only win 25 Arena Points at a time, and you figure you will only get drawn once every 20 Random Draws. (You can win 50 Arena Points for a finish, but if it's close, it isn't worth the risk.) Arena Betting - If you bet your Arena Points on the correct fighter in a Random Draw fight, you earn Arena Points! This is a serious risk, though, and totally random, and if you run out of Arena Points, you have to gain them back via other means of winning. Game Pond Quizzes - Win up to 100 Arena Points in outcastdeathspork's "Who Wants to Be a Game Pond Hundredaire" which is, of course, the most lucrative game here. Other random quizzes will earn you as much as 50 points, and there is nothing to lose. The other major form of ARena currency is Starbucks, official unit of the ACFLM. There are several ways to earn these: ACF tournament - be one of six fighters in any ACF season, and duel through 10 Arena battles, with hopes of finishing in the top two in points. If you don't make the title match you earn 5,000 Starbucks for every fight you win; however, if you do, the jackpot is much higher, though you don't win Starbucks by number of fights won. If you lose the title match you win 100,000 Starbucks; that jackpot increases to 500,000 with a win. In more advanced stages of the game there may be more fighters in an ACF season. LM quizzes - the major one if the most lucrative in any arena; of course, it's "Who Wants to Be a Game Pond Millionaire." You can win as many as 1,000,000 Starbucks in this. There are also other LM quizzes that are run by other players which aren't as lucrative. ACF Casino - bet your Starbucks on ACF fights. Just like betting on Random Draw fights. Also, in either case, you can write your own quizzes. Choose the number of questions, the amount of Arena Points or Starbucks to be awarded, and the difficulty (in the Game Pond difficulty levels are Easy, Normal, and Hard; the LM difficulties are Easy, Medium, Hard, and Mastermind. Mastermind must be pre-approved with DEVILRAYS in order to allow a 1,000,000 prize and a Mastermind's Trophy to be given.) Remember that easy quizzes shouldn't be lucrative, but people might want a challenge; also, hard or Mastermind quizzes may not be popular with the weaker minds. There are also other small arenas to get involved with, but the points earned there cannot be traded for Starbucks or Arena Points.

Game Pond Racers In this game you play as one of many Game Ponders in a racing game. At the opener, there are 40 Game Ponders selectable, in eight racing teams. Each team has a captain and four other racers. Royalty - captained by Game Pond owner KieraYinCat, this team includes BJStrykes and his wife Camira Breen, BJ's evil cousin SethraShnoo, and Kiera's boyfriend CataTonic9. Their home track is ShnooWorld, which is shaped like an egg with a beak. The beak has seriously dangerous curves, but the rest of the track is pretty basic. 1st Legion - this team consists mostly of people who have been at the Pond from near the beginning. Flying Omelette captains a team including CRAWLand1000, CLOUDBOND007, Pero the Cat, and nextbillgates. Since NBG incorporates Windoes into the team cars, they have the ability to cause other teams' vehicles to crash at inconvenient times. Their home course is Flying Omelette's Palace, where animé characters will impede racers or they may help them. 2nd Legion - also a team mostly of experienced racers. Aussie2B leads Kefkathe3rd, HobbestheTiger, Liontamer, and DEATHAMSTER. Repair money is often hard to come by since Kefka is infamous for gambling his Arena Points away, though there is no shortage of Starbucks. Their home track is Miss Sarajevo's Blue Room. Nonsense Posters - one of the most fun teams to use. James FP captains not only MrBlastoise, ErniePants, HiRider, and PUDDMANN, but also legions of ketchup packets and potato salad. James' Paradise Resort is home to this team, which is also armed with PUDDMANN's uncanny ability to overload another team's circuits with bizarre, complicated math. (Though the 1st Legion is generally unfazed, as CRAWLand1000 can decode most of it.) Trivia Gods - this team built their cars based around how many potential trivia questions it would generate. DEVILRAYS, the founder of the Arena Combat Federation, captains I am a donut, Proto Man and Mega, diamondcutters, and rudoranohihou, all of whom have done well in DEVILRAYS' quizzes (why do you think I would pick them?) Their skill is the ability to distract a driver with a trivia question, though they tend to get frustrated if their opponent can answer it. They play in the DEVILRAYS Sports Complex. Belmonts - this team has a reputation as bad boys or renegades, and their strength is in their power. WhatAboutRaven2 captains the team consisting of outcastdeathspork, TWEETER911, Dark Diamond, and BrownEagle. DD can't be matched when it comes to bombs, and TWEETER911 can post nonsense with the best of them. They race in the Colosseum and are tough to beat if you don't get an early lead. Otakus - this team led by Protocool has endured fights with the Belmonts, betrayal by Bugforest, and countless internal struggles before settling on Shykid, Ingrid, NOAImawario, and BrittK007 in its lineup. Their strength is in their secrecy, as the Neo-Otaku World is completely closed to the public. Mystery Team - this team has a history of causing problems at the Game Pond. Thawhidol is the captain, and GH64, ClaudeKenni, Tridon, and Peace and Quiet are the members. They are tough to beat at close range, since they are all skilled flamers. All of them are very difficult to understand as well. Their home course is at VividImagination and requires an advanced browser and cable modem to enter. There are three main modes of play, those being Free Race, Circuit, and Mission. With Free Race, any two players or teams can race on any track. They may also battle at any venue. In Circuit, the eight teams play a series of round-robins, either 7, 14, 28, 42, 56, or 70 with the top 3 going to the playoffs. Each contest consists of 5 races with the first team to win 3 winning. This is a great place to hone your racing skills whether in a free circuit or playing under a User, where you can win Arena Points and Starbucks to upgrade your vehicles. In Mission mode, you select a team from the list of eight. Each player on your team must win a race before you can advance. At this point the other 7 teams are beefed up and you earn stars by defeating them. The first Boss is demo, and you must select a team member to face him. He's pretty easy, since all he can say is "ok" and "cool". Other players you race in future worlds are the Gamblers (Magnus CROWE and Pokémon Master Junus) and the Returners (Corporate Eyebrow and IJzebel) who can be unlocked by defeating them. The next boss is Seto, who has very strict rules about what attacks you can use. On the other hand, he has no problem using any attack he wants, so you won't win this race using attacks. Then comes DarkKnight2, and his bark is worse than his bite. He'll make you think he did something to your car, and some of the time he will cut your brake line or flood your engine or something, but other than that, just drive fast and he's history. The 4th boss is DCS CO LTD, who drives a delivery van full of PSX and DC silvers. You can beat him by ramming his rear and making the GD-ROM copiers fall out the back, outmaneuvering him and making him tip over, or by getting the Feds on his tail and hoping they take him down before the race is over. Now it's time to move into the NSider's inner sanctum. Move into Camp Hyrule by out-racing a security guard, but be careful - a mystery maniac will be causing havoc on the campsite. Challenge him to a race and take him down. However, soon you learn that team racing is nothing new to Nsider either. A team of five NSider lamers has gotten together and begun racing, and you must defeat them to get to the NOA inner sanctum. IntotheDarkness, KongsBigDonky, Spyrolover, Reno of the Turks, and captain Ryan Gaunt. NOA DanO and NOA Scott oversee the races, and will be looking for Lists for Deletion. They will also tend to delete their own from time to time as well, but that's ineffectie against Ryan Gaunt. At the end of the race, Ryan Gaunt's arch-rival will show up and try to sabotage the racetrack; trick Ryan Gaunt into falling into what is actually his own trap. Win 3 races of 5 and it's off to the inner sanctum. NOA DanO, NOA Scott, and NOA Mike run a 3-player racing team, and they race at the dilapidated NSider BBS, which has been allowed to run down by NOA Mike's apathy. When racing NOADanO, avoid his "delete missiles" as being hit by one involves an automatic loss. And just so you don't figure you can take 2 of 3 by just beating Scott and Mike, Scott wields a whip which will delete anything it touches. Some other wild card racers are Hitmongaimeguy, DOVEBLOB, urobbie, MiyamotoLover, and The Great Butcher. Defeat all 5 of them in one-on-one races and not only do you earn the right to use them in head-to-head races, but they also form a new team, the Odds and Ends. Though they have no synergy whatsoever they are actually the fastest team in the game. The final round involves going to the Depths of EZBoard Hell. The Poop Groop awaits at the end of the Mission road. There are five of them and five of you, and you can only use each racer once. You have 1 Continue going into this, and you must beat each enemy. The first opponent is Facilitypro, then Serbot, and TermiteJr. The easy way to beat Serbot is to overload his car computer with large pictures, since his modem can't take it. In a last-ditch effort he will flame you and claim to ignore your responses, but he's fried. The second-to-last character is MountainRanger, who will try to get you to visit his board while you're racing. Avoid doing that and he's beatable. However, be sure to beat him on the first try so you can keep your Continue going into the final round against Bugforest, the toughest opponent you will face. He will blast the track with poop, making it extra-slick, and he will flood your car computer with disgusting pictures. Be careful of his alteregos Cader, Mader and Tader impeding your progress. The Trivia Gods have a major grudge against this guy and would be the most driven to defeat him, but the Nonsense Posters may be able to defeat him by making his head explode! Defeat him and unlock the Poop Groop for circuit play, which moves to 2 divisions of 6 players with the top 3 in each division moving on. Who wouldn't want at least 317 copies of this game, one for each try it will take for you to win?

Greed 64 First came "Greed". Then "Super Greed". So naturally, the next in line should be Greed 64! The basis for this game: Released, say, sometime this summer, people may go to any local video game store and buy a box with: The "Greed 64" cartridge, a modem for connecting to the Internet, and some instructions. Gameplay is an awful lot like on World Opponent Network, in that you enter a room at the beginning of a game. Any number of people can enter a room, though the qualifying question at the begiing will eliminate all but the quickest and most correct 5. From there on out, gameplay is similar to Greed the Series (the Fox game show.) Players are given questions and advance to the next round if they're correct; since it's online, the questions pretty much never repeat. But wait, there's more! Scores per user will be tabulated in gameplay; the 240 contestants with the highest cumulative scores over a series of online games, which include freebies, four-part answers, and challenges, will have the chance to appear on real Greed for a chance at $2 million! Of course, the number 64 has to have SOME significance. Of the 240 contestants, the 20 who win the most money (if tiebreaks are needed, they will be done in a series of challenge questions) will have a chance to play a special Greed for the chance to win $64 million (with extra-hard questions, of course, but at least you're guaranteed SOMETHING in THIS game for reaching the end of the first round.) Who wouldn't want 64 million copies of this game, one for each dollar you could win?

Keyshawn Johnson RPG In this game you play as Keyshawn Johnson right about the time he gets drafted by the New York Jets. You're a rookie playing on a shitty team, and aren't doing a damn thing to help, so you go write a book criticizing eveyrone in sight, especially teammate Wayne Chrebet. Then, the Jets suddenly get good, with Bill Parcells as head coach. Finally, you get to the AFC Championship Game behind veteran quarterback Vinny Testaverde, but the next year he gets hurt so you just watch as your team sucks the entire year, proving you're no help. So now you're caught with your pants down again, and the Jets get sick of your mouth, so they trade you to Tampa Bay. The climax of the game is the fourth week of the season where the Jets come to Tampa Bay. Proceed to compare former teammate Chrebet to a flashlight while comparing yourself to a star. In the end, Chrebet grabs the game-winning catch while you're held to one reception, and as a joke, Chrebet FedExes you a box of flashlights. Who wouldn't take 347 copies of this game?

Kill Long Distance Scams 64 Tired of all the 10-10-bunch of digits long distance phone services? Well, in this game, become a psychopath and destroy them! The first stage is in one of those new movie theaters with stadium seating and 30 screens. Steal people's Raisinettes and Arctic Blasts to gain power. In each theater, go into a Bonus Game that involve whatever movie is playing at the time. After stealing two Jumbo tubs of popcorn and a pistol, go to the concession stand to buy some Nerds. Use them against the boss in theater 30; the boss is 10-10-29-7, a lesser-known 10-10-XYZ service. The second stage is in a warehouse, where they keep 2-liter bottles of soda. Ninjas will come out and try to hurt you; however, spray Sprite in their faces and, if possible, use Raisinettes you stole in stage 1, as they are very effective against these Ninjas. Next, the building will collapse on you, but if you're surrounded by crates, you won't be hurt. Next, kill the venomous rats using cola. The boss of the stage is 10-10-220; only Jolt Cola will work against him, so stock up. The third stage is inside a grocery store. Salamis are your most useful weapon; use them to beat people with. Only beat people who have Gatorade in their cart, as that is your fuel in the battle at the end of the stage. Your distance weapon of choice is fruits and vegetables, getting enough power into your throws will KO enemies instantly, allowing you to take their Gatorade and salamis. The boss of the stage is 10-10-345, and the best way to beat him is to use the extra-large salami you picked up at the salad bar to whack the models of Saturn and the baseball players he throws at you. Slay him, and you advance to the fourth world, which is inside a college campus. Knock on people's dorm room doors and ask for their stereo speakers. Steal an amplifier from the 4th floor resident advisor, and hook them up without security noticing. Get noticed, and you will be taken to jail, since you don't have a permit for this equipment. In lecture hall, you meet 10-10-9000, who you will fight hand-to-hand. Since you have hooked up the stereo system, and all the speakers are in this room, you can turn the system on and blow the ears off the boss of the stage. Make sure you stole the ear muffs off the Dean, or else you will be blown away too. After 10-10-9000 is shaken by the noise, beat him until he agrees to take down the final boss of the game with you. However, at this point, security comes in and arrests both of you and throws you in jail. The last stage of the game doesn't even begin until you break out of jail. Since you and 10-10-9000 are cellmates, both of you must sneak out unnoticed. Get noticed, and you will be shot on sight. For this reason, sneak out between the hours of 2 am and 5 am, when the night-watchman is busy watching pornos and eating donuts. Once out, venture to the inner sanctum, but along the way, pick up a few essentials. You need to pick up a machine gun, ammo, a Super Soaker, some body armor, a wire-cutter, a spork, and a baseball bat. When you get in, eat a cupcake or two and wash it down with some Gatorade, and put on your body armor. When you face the Sumo Wrestler, your body armor will make you invincible to him, so you can shove your baseball bat up his nose. Then short the wires that supply power to the inner sanctum with your spork, and rip off the security guard's nose with the wire-cutter. Take out a salt shaker and pour salt into the wound, and then douse him with the Super Soaker. He will promptly resign and move to Montana and become a used car salesman. At the center of the building, you will meet 10-10-321, the mother of all long-distance scams. Use your machine-gun to get through his tough armor, but not the way you would think. You beat his armor with the gun. Then you throw the ammo at it, and eventually, it will explode. Then on the inside, you will see this nerdy guy who was behind this whole thing. Punch him, call the police, and have them take him away, and you win the game. You would have to be out of your mind not to spend your entire life savings on copies of this game.

Livin' La Vida Loca 64 This game has two modes. In mode one, you play as Ricky Martin, Latin singer-sensation. In the beginning, you rank as No. 100 on the Time Magazine list of the 100 Sexiest Men Alive. So, after writing "Livin' La Vida Loca," try to appear in as many music videos as possible. Spend lots of money, and in turn, become rich. This mode ends when you are ranked No. 1, have destroyed the previous No. 1 (the purely evil Leonardo DiCaprio,) and have married a supermodel. In mode two, you play as the crazy woman he described in his hit song. Your objective is either to earn $1 million or score 100,000 points. Buy sleeping pills at Doc's Drugstore, and seduce as many guys as possible, taking their money and credit cards. Every wallet you steal is 100 points; every guy you score with is 250. Every credit card he has is another 100; if you can get him to take his clothes off and go dancing in the rain, that's 500 right there. Every bottle of French champagne you get your guy to order is 100 points; if you down it, it's another 100. Save up enough money to buy yourself a Domain of Seduction; every guy you lure in there is another 1000 points (if it's a penthouse in New York City, that's 2000.) You can turn on or off victory at $1 million or at 100,000 points; however, one victory condition must be on. Keep in mind, though, that if you get a guy to propose marriage to you (he has to be REALLY DRUNK) then you earn 2500 points; accepting his proposal, though, means you go back to zero, PLUS you have to get out of the marriage. You would have to be insane not to buy at least 75 copies!

March Madness 64, er...65 In this game you play as an office worker, and the game starts right after Selection Sunday. They play a microcosm of the NCAA basketball season for you, and your job is to fill in the field of 64...wait, 65 teams with all the NCAA tournament's winners. This, of course, is impossible. Enter the following pools: Local office pool - fill in your bracket and get points for each game predicted correctly. Winner gets half the pot.

NCAA Blitz NFL Blitz was a huge success; why not make an NCAA Blitz? Think about it - 114 Division I-A college football teams playing seven-on-seven, 30-yards-to-the-1st-down, no-holds-barred football. There are a few different modes of play: Arcade - you can play a game on a file or you can just play. If you play a single game you pick both your team and your opponent; if you play under a file, your opponent is selected from the list of 114, and the objective is to beat all 114 teams, from lowly Buffalo to powerful Florida State. Slaying the mighty Top 25 will open up 30 historic teams which will play you tougher than you know; after this, you will face the producer teams. Season - select any of the 114 teams and play a 12-game schedule and a postseason. Schedules are drawn up by conference; rivalries are preserved. The BCS formula is included in the game, and you have the option to pick your opponents, but remember that scheduling easy opponents will get you nowhere with the BCS paople. The postseason offers you a few choices - you can use the traditional bowl, in which there may be no clear-cut national champion, the BCS system in which No. 1 plays No. 2 and beyond that anything goes, or a playoff system. The playoffs can be 4, 8, 12, or 16 teams; all teams below that play bowl games and 48 teams play in the postseason. Tournament - play a tournament of 4, 8, 16, or 32 teams against the computer or your friends; or you can set up a round-robin tournament with any number of teams you want. Play Editor - you can create 3 pages of offensive plays, including fake punts and field goals, last-second desperation bombs, and running plays, and 2 pages of defense, including the prevent defense and all the Zone, Nickel, and Man Cover you could ever want. You can keep up to six different playbooks on one file and shuffle the regular plays to your liking. A game like this has the potential to be more than just an NFL Blitz clone; you would have to be nuts not to buy at least 132 copies!

N-Sider RPG The game starts out with four characters - DEVILRAYS, BJSTRYKES, KIERAYINCAT, and MIYAMOTOLOVER. The mission at the beginning of the game is to construct a new BBS in case the NSider shuts down. You also try to keep the NSider from being shut down by the NOA's too, although there are idiots you must fight off. You can play as one character at a time using a similar character switching method to Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, and there are moves you must pick up along the way. You will learn HTML codes, ways to protect your passwords, combat techniques, and a basic "who's who" of the NSiders. Along the way you will meet some strange people such as PUDDMANN, SHYKID, and CLOUDBOND, who may or may not be friendly to your cause. Some of the bosses of the game are ERNIEPANTS, PSYKOSUMA, JANSPORK, and GH64. You will also face some past NSider enemies such as NILET, KONGSBIGDONKY, RELIGIONSUX, SPYROLOVER, SPYROHATER, and the infamous clone boss. Gain 64 users on your BBS network and you will earn the Super BBS and Chat Program, but you will have to download it off Microsoft's page and it will cost 20 dollars. Build your own BBS on DEVILRAYS' server, and you will have more freedom to design your page. Once you're up to 100 users, you can start charging a membership fee. In the meantime, keep your BBS safe, eliminate violators, and save up for the cyber-combat program "Impact!" which you will need to have to take down the NOA's cyber-combat program "Super Kamek" (I know the name is lame, but what do you expect from the NOA's?) Anyway, the NOA's have built their site back up, and it turns out those are the two major discussion forums on the Internet for video games. Defeat Super Kamek, and the NOA's will grant you control of the NSider; lose, and they shut down your BBS, meaning the only game BBS left is censored, totalitarian, and has ERNIEPANTS as a moderator. Not only this, but Nintendo will stop making RPG's altogether and make only 2 1/2-D games starring Yoshi, Kirby, and Geno. They will also buy the rights to Sony and Sega's systems and create an unfair monopoly. A defeat will give them the reality check they need to offer competitive RPG's, more arcade sports games, and fair prices. The future of games is upon us! RISE UP AND CLAIM YOUR GLORY!

Office Max 64 In this game you play as DEVILRAYS, an OfficeMax cashier, in four exciting Missions. Slow Day - in this one, you simply have to find something to do. It's Thursday night at 7:00, and there are hardly any customers in the store. You win extra points if you manage to go unnoticed long enough that management forgets to give you a break; you win even more for time you SHOULD be working when you're actually watching "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" (10 points for every question you can correctly answer; double points if you know it before the multiple-choice.) However, if it's so slow they begin sending people home, it's best to stay out of sight, since you automatically lose if you don't make it to close at 9:00 PM. 20% Off Sale - in this one, another cashier calls you up to the service desk to take over for him while he goes and smokes. At that point, it gets really busy. You have 30 minutes to check every one of them out. And to top it off, everyone wants a return AND something out of lockup. Make it through 30 minutes without your head exploding and you win. Feuding Co-Workers - in this one, you're working all day Saturday with the one person who just pisses you off and you don't know why. This scenario can actually take as long as you want, since the last one still working there wins. Such things you can try: Find out his PIN number and clock him out when he isn't working. Then when he's short about $100 on his next paycheck, he'll get PO'd at the manager (whom you really don't want to piss off) and either will quit or get fired. Log into the company network under his name and sign up the company CEO's e-mail account to be spammed by numerous porn sites. Take a bunch of $20's, $50's, and $100's from the main register and stick them in an envelope when no one is looking. Then come back from break dressed as a member of management and tell him, "Hey, you'll need this." He'll mindlessly stuff it in his pocket and when the drawer comes up several hundred dollars short, let the sparks fly! Find out his parents' credit card number. Then have several large furniture items delivered to their address. Furious with management, they will order their kid to quit! Hack the server and wipe him off the payroll. Then send a memo to several OfficeMaxes that someone was fired for insubordination at your store, amking it sound like a memo against insubordination (or whatever you want.) Management will just go on and hire someone else. However, these are very risky, since if you're caught they fire you. Back-to-School Wars - inspired by such titles as Funcoland 64 and Steak n Shake 64, this is where you go around destroying Office Depots and Staples! Go in dressed as a customer and rearrange eveything! Put things in different aisles! Mess up the furniture display! Take software boxes and switch the CD-ROMS between boxes! Hack the price servers! The final showdown is with the guy who started those stupid back-to-school ads for Staples. Win all four scenarios and you get a raise. Who wouldn't want at least 571 copies?

Roller Coaster Tycoon 64 This game is mostly like the PC version of Roller Coaster Tycoon except for some noted additions so you know I designed it. There are five basic kinds of rides - the gentle rides, the thrill rides, the water rides, the roller coasters, and the transport rides. Gentle rides include the carousel, the Space Rings, the haunted house, the Ferris wheel, and the car ride. These rides are generally cheaper to build and require less maintenance, but aren't as popular as the big-name rides. Thrill rides range from Scramblers to swinging ships to witch's wheels (whatever those are) to those disgusting things where you strap people into a round, spinning thing that spins them around at 80 mph until they start screaming at you to let them off the damn ride. As you might guess, maniacal teenagers will want to ride these, but they will become gradually less popular and there isn't much you can do about it. Water rides include boat hires, log flumes, water slides, and your very own Waterworks. These are more expensive to keep up, but cheap to build, and they tend to be pretty popular. Roller coasters need no introduction, but they range from wooden to steel to stand-up to suspended to indoor. You can even build them underground. There are pre-set coaster designs for you which tend to sell well, or you can risk it and build your own coaster. Just remember that if it's too intense like the coasters I like to build, few people who aren't psychotic teenagers will ride it. Finally, transport rides include trains, chairlifts, monorails, trams, and the most expensive - your own personal helicopter. Actually, this is pretty cheap to keep up, but you can charge people out the ying-yang for it, and they'll sure as hell pay. You can build food stands and get people's money that way, also. Sell burgers, hot dogs, pizza, fries, ice cream, chili, subs, Dr. Pepper, and other assorted items so people don't whine about being hungry or thirsty. Just don't build them in the same county as your most intense coasters. And remember that food isn't the only thing to be sold. People will buy park maps, hats, rain parka, umbrellas, T-shirts, and shot glasses at your Souvenir Stands. Just be sure you have enough restrooms to match these stands. Be sure as well to include paths to these places so as not to get guests lost. Along these paths should also be benches, trash bins, and other items for the guests- enjoyment. It is also possible to include scenery in your park; this is popular among guests. The opposite effect of the natural scenery would be to have flashing lights and neon signs to give a futuristic look, which is also okay. Just be sure to stick with one or the other; guests see a mixture of this as tacky. You have the option of playing a scenario in which you are given an objective (for instance, get a park rating of 600 and a total of 700 guests in your park at the end of your 3rd year.) Or you can play a completely blank game in which you construct a park from the ground up, all items can be researched by your R&D team, and all the land can be purchased. There are 21 scenarios in the game, ranging in difficulty from easy to virtually impossible (obtain a park rating of 900 and a guest total of 1,000 by the end of your 1st year in a park that is totally in shambles.) Some features you can earn later in the game if you really try include hosting your own website (must have 1 scenario completed; costs $100 a month,) putting a dome on your park (must have 6 scenarios completed; costs $13,000 for its initial construction and doubles the price of land you buy; keeps guests dry and rides popular in bad weather,) buying other corporations (must have 10 scenarios completed; cost varies on market value; adds to income and tourist attractions in park,) a golf course (must have 15 scenarios completed; costs $7,500 plus clubhouse fees and requires a large amount of space; boosts tourism and bodes well for chances of hosting a major golf tournament) and the biggest one - lobbying for an expansion franchise in a major sport (must have all 21 scenarios completed; costs $1,000,000 and requires a large amount of space; also costs $50,000 a month for fees; ticket sales will increase dramatically and it is possible to bring home a championship trophy, though you may want to consider firing the GM or the coach if your team sucks.) Who out there wouldn't want at least 123 copies of this game?

Who Wants to be a US President? In this game, you play as any Presidential candidate, starting in the primaries. The strongest candidates are obviously Al Gore and George Bush, but you have to beat your own party members. In either the Republican or Democratic primary, you have to win your party's nomination. You can do this either by spending outrageous amounts of money on smear campaigns, making outrageous claims like that you will eliminate all taxes on people with an F in their middle names, and taking embarrassing pictures of your opponents and threatening to show them on national TV. Once you're past this stage, you face the opposing party's candidate in a debate. This is run like a game show, with a committee of Supreme Court justices deciding the winner. Twice during the game you can force your opponent to take a tough question, and twice during the game you will be forced to answer one of his questions. Win over 5 of 9 justices and you're off to the presidential hot seat. Right at this point you're 15 questions from the presidency. Naturally, you are given three lifelines: 50/50, in which you are given a national survey's top two answers to the question; Ask the Audience, in which you sample answers from the 538 Congresspeople, and Phone a Friend, in which you can ask any politician, past or present, the question. If you're stuck you can either stop or BS your way through the question, which may get you through it. The scoring system is just like that of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and how far you get in this round determines how good your ending is. If you miss one of the first five, you completely lose and your opponent is named President. Get all 15 right and you can appoint all new justices and write in any new law of your choice, PLUS you get a salary increase. I don't know about you, but I'll take 33 copies.

Yokels 64 This game is a very twisted RPG. The object is to score a blood-alcohol content of 100 percent, where every beer you drink increases your BAC by .02. You start out in the beginning of the game, of course, with a BAC of .00 and no money; you also have no weapon and no car. Also, unfortunately for your city, beer prices have shot up to $4 a glass, and the bar is the only place to get it. Earn money by - what else? - beating people up. In the beginning of the game you have 50 hit points and your rating is "Loser." The first stage of the game is at Toys R Us, where you fight a Toy, a Little Kid, a Cashier, and a Store Manager. Higher-ranking enemies give you more money. The weapons you earn, and their respective dollar values, are: A CD case (20 dollars,) a rubber chicken ($60,) a walking stick ($100,) a whip ($225,) a sword ($500,) a chainsaw ($1200,) a revolver ($2000,) a machine gun ($5000,) and finally the Cresscent of Satan ($10000 and can only be bought in the last world of the game.) You can spend your money on beer, on weapons, or on vehicles, but remember that the game isn't won until your BAC is 100 and you have beaten the last enemy. The first vehicle you buy is a pair of rollerblades for $50. With this, you can get to Starbucks Coffee, where you fight the coffee machine, the frozen-drink machine, the store manager and the hyper-active businessman. Save up $100 for a bicycle, and you can get into the insane asylum, where you will be welcomed by a man who thinks he's Napoleon, a man who missed a game-winning field goal in the college national championship seven years ago, the receptionist, and a man with a strait-jacket. Beat them up enough and buy yourself a 1963 Dodge Dart (cost: $225,); from there, go to the gas station. Beat up the gas pump, a window, the car wash attendant, and the clown behind the counter that sells cigarettes to minors, and get on with life. Then, once you have $700, buy a 1984 Ford Mustang and go to the amusement park. There, you will have a close encounter with a Tilt-A-Whirl, the man at the cotton-candy stand, the nutcase at the mini-golf stand, and the psychotic raving lunatic who has ridden the roller coaster about 23 times in the past 2 hours. All you need is $2400 and a '96 Toyota Rav4 is yours. Take this to the White House where you will do battle with Hillary Clinton, Monica Lewinsky, Bill Clinton, and Kenneth Starr. Save up $12000 to buy a crappy helicopter that will get you to the Middle East. Then you face a customs officer, a deranged guard, Slobodan Milosevic, and Saddam Hussein. Saving up $24000 is your next goal, as that plus having beaten every Earthly enemy will earn you the Hale-Bopp comet, which will carry you to Hell. You fight a random soul, Cerberus the devil dog, Adolf Hitler, and Charles Manson here. Defeat all four of them to earn Satan's Super Pass, which you must also have $50000 to earn. Only then can you take on Satan, the game's final boss. Your rating is determined by your blood-alcohol content. At first, it is, of course, "Loser." Raise your BAC to 5 and you upgrade to "Piss-ant" and have 60 HP. At 10 you upgrade to "Drunky" and 70 HP. BAC of 20 is "Puking freak" and 80 HP, 30 is "Psychopath" and 90 HP, 50 is "Pure Evil" and 100 HP, and then it really gets good. At a BAC of 70, you become "Public Enemy No. 1" and have 120 HP, and at 90 you upgrade to "Anti-Christ" and have 150 HP. No matter what, you cannot defeat Satan or anyone in Hell unless your rating is "Anti-Christ," and if you are killed, you go back to the last point at which you saved. This game based on the "Yokels" and "HicQuest" games for Texas Instruments graphing calculator.

Yugo 64 In this game you play as a semi-insane college student on summer break. The game starts out in Boston; your goal is to drive the Yugo you and three friends have restored to its original state to Los Angeles. You and those three friends must climb into this piece of crap and get from Boston to LA before the summer is over. You must also stop in Tampa to see your best friend's online girlfriend, but upon reaching her house you discover she's really an undercover police officer. You have to outrun her in her speedy Porsche which she squelched out of her ex-husband by throwing ceam pies and pizzas at her. There are only 8 auto shops left in the United States that sell Yugo parts, and they are scattered across the U.S. Since your car will break down a lot, be sure to stock up on parts. But remember, you're college students - you have only $2,500 between you, which must also be spent on gas, food, and beer. You lose money if you get a ticket for DUI, and if you run out, you have to stop for two weeks and work in a fancy restaurant to earn money or rob a bank or something. You win the game when you reach the UCLA campus, if you do so before September. If you don't make it before then you have to play catch-up with the first semester of work; fail to pass your classes and you get kicked out of college. You also win the game if you find a rich drunk guy with a sport-utility vehicle to whom you can trade the Yugo for the SUV. You lose if he sobers up in enough time to kill you. Who wouldn't want at least 336 copies of this game, one for every time the car breaks down in an average game?
