	Okay, I'll tell.  I've seen early versions of both the lucasfilm
    games, and played one of them quite a bit.  They are tentatively called
    "Behind Jaggai Lines" and "Ballblaster".  They are without any doubt
    the greatest games I have seen on any home computer system.  BJL is
    a shoot the aliens game, and BB is a bumbercar soccer game. Both have
    3-D graphics, with the screen looking like a viewport into the real
    world.  BJL has a better flight simulator than the ones running on
    the IBM-PC.  BB is fast, exciting and an incredible amount of fun.
	Definitely the biggest thing since pacman.   You can stop wondering.
