30
MINUTES GFX COMPO
SLIDE SHOW
----------------------------- by Supremacy ----------------------------------
As with every issue comes THE time for the review no one wants to do. This
time again I, as the main editor, have to do what other people can choose not
to :( Let's cut the crap here and then hopefully keep this article as short as
needed.
Supremacy has recently released this "30 minutes gfx compo slide show". From
the name above you can guess that this is nothing more but a slide show. Waouh
I'm so excited already. Now this production is Strider's and is 100% gfa coded
(yep it's Falcon only :). It all starts with a 16 colour SUPREMACY logo by Made
(recycling rules) followed up by a nice soundtrack by Dma Sc/ Sector One. Are
you ready now ? I hope so because you're going to sit in front of your monitor
for quite a long time, watching 53 pictures in all...
Okay, let me get this straight : the pictures are kinda cool, most of them
being quite impressive for 30 minutes compositions (but on PC you can render
pictures in less than 30 minutes). Dma's msx is cool as usual, being this time
a slow piano influenced piece of music. BUT... and this is SUCH a problem : how
long can you stay in front of a computer waiting for another pic to show up ???
You'll even notice that the music loops long _BEFORE_ the show ends... I cannot
even remember staying that long, I'm not masochist enough.
Bottom line : gfx and msx are cool but slide shows SUCK ! I don't want to
waste 30 minutes in front of my computer in order to watch 53 pictures ! sorry
but I didn't like it, it's nothing but torture ! I would have rather adopted a
file selector system from which you would have been able to view some pictures.
Or, who knows ?, I would have used these piccies or at least some of them in
demos but definitely NOT in a lousy slide-show.
I need to delete some files from my Falcon HD now...
