January 1991 - Lander

The main section has a decent piece on "The Brave New World of Electronic Games". "Before long, home entertainment systems will let us write, produce, direct, and star in our own movies." Do modern video games count? I know I would be utterly blown away by any modern "cinematic" game if I had seen it back in 1991, but we're not really writing producing or directing that much...

Lander - Paul Comstock

Yet another Lunar Lander, but better than most: a lot faster and more dynamic. But TOUGH... things are shooting at you and sometimes the terrain brings your perilously close to the cannons. I couldn't make it past Level 3 of 10. Rating:3/5

Wait, that's it for games this month? That doesn't bode well.
