OS/2 Games on World Charts.

Toyland moved to #12 from #15 on the World Charts Download Top 40 Games this week! It's been as high as #9. Exile 2 is rising fast as well and has more points than Toyland, so it's likely to pass it in the next few weeks. The charts use an algorithm which gives some weight to a games current position, so games don't rise suddenly. Toyland is the only OS2 game in the Download Top 40 currently, but Bug Eyed Monsters by Grinning Lizard was nominated this week and appears as a Runner Up.

Thousands of game players vote every week to determine the Download Top 40 Games and the Commercial Top 100 Games. Everyone is welcome to vote! Voting on the Games Charts has become fairly simple. We have an automated voting booth.

The Toyland page currently listed on Santiago's Download Top 40 Games Page (my page) is Rainald Menge's "Rainald in Toyland" Page.

I also link to a Bug Eyed Monsters page. Santiago's Download Top 40 Games Page is the World Charts official Download Top 40 Games site. I maintain links to web pages devoted to all the games on the Download Top 40 Charts, where you can get the games themselves, game FAQs and just about everything else you could want. Visit my page!

QuickMotion for OS/2 Now Available.

Practice Corporation today announced the availability of QuickMotion for OS/2, which gives OS/2 Warp systems the power to play QuickTime 1.0 movies. QuickMotion installs as an OS/2 multimedia plug-in component. For more information, visit http://www.practice.xo.com/.

QuickMotion's native playback technology greatly improves the quality of sound and video when compared to Windows movie players running under OS/2 -- the only shipping QuickTime solution previously available to OS/2 users.

QuickMotion requires, at a minimum, a PC running OS/2 Warp 3.0 with a 486 processor, 8MB RAM, VGA, and a CD-ROM drive. It will work with any OS/2-compatible sound card, although a sound card is not required.

QuickMotion is suggested retail priced at US $49.95, and is available immediately through OS/2 specialty mail-order house Indelible Blue (800) 776-8284. Practice Corp. is located at 1030 E. El Camino Real #513, Sunnyvale, CA 94087. Email to quickmo@practice.xo.com, or visit their web site.
