If you do, I'd really appreciate it if you could get in touch off list. Please? It's about my dad. cheers, Paul. This message powered by Never Tear Us Apart/INXS off Kick.

Did a little research for it on the internet and found a number of reviews, almost all of them said the game absolutely sucked but each and every review praised the soundtrack for the game, one reviewer even saying it was the best soundtrack he had ever heard for any game ever (for those who have forgotten, "Double Switch" was scored by Thomas). Of course this game was made back when Beatnik was Headspace, back when the company was a little more broad in it's direction. No doubt with the current generations of console game machines (PS-2, X-boX, Gamecube) having broadband internet capabilities we'll see Beatnik turning its attentions to these platforms, but what I'm wondering is, are we going to see more videogame soundtracks scored by Thomas Dolby? Incidently, am I alone in thinking that Nintendo is missing a golden opportunity in not hiring Thomas's "May The Cube Be With You" to promote it's Gamecube? Speaking of new machines, the X-boX comes out this week. It's cool that Microsoft has brought on Sean Connery as spokesman but man, ever since they weaselled their way out of the anti-trust suit they've gotten cocky as hell. Just check out the new marketing slogan they're using for the X-boX. http://ghastly.keenspace.com/images/Ghastlys_Comic-Sean_Connery_Xbox.mp3 Speaking of videogames... Thomas, do you have a favorite videogame? If so, what is it? Crackers (Searching the thrifts from hell!!)
