If there isn't a message on the box saying that the game is
harddrive-installable and multi-tasking, I don't buy it. If those messages
aren't there, you can bet (most of the time) that it'll be one of those games
that causes so many headaches for those of us who don't like to re-boot "just
to play a game" or makes it impossible to "play just for a few minutes while my
brain settles down from all this programming/animating/word
processing/what-have-you".
        Please, make your game multi-tasking and harddrive installable and SAY
SO ON THE BOX!
Please please please please please please... (ad infinitum)
