	I think that the funnest games are ones that are the most life-like,
	for example, an airplane that gets tossed in the wind, or real
	deceleration and acceleration for things that move, and I also
	like ones that are hunt and kill kinds.  Violence usually sells well,
	and maybee if you can make the game a big puzzle too, it would
	probably be a winner.

	-- Just a few thoughts.
