INTERNATIONAL KARAOKE+
*************************************

csdb.dk/getinternalfile.php/133459/International_Karaoke+_Digital_Excess.zip

Interesting, this title - I haven't really reported about "music" releases
but this one is different. It's a Christmas-themed affair with various favourites you have to select.

Not only are the musical renditions of these holiday favourites well
executed, the application displays the words to sing along (in time) with
the music. Something similar has been attempted before, but to my
knowledge, not on this scale! (did you get the pun there?)

MP3 PLUGIN V6 [IDE64]

*************************************
AIR SEA BATTLE RELEASED
*************************************

While you may criticize the 1982-style graphics and lack of sound output,
Air Sea Battle is a simple game that has been developed for the C64 in the language of C. The same author has also released UFO Attack and Looter.

So, as these are programming exercises into C rather than just standard
games releases, I will just point you to more information. And, while most will pull a face that C is used rather than machine code, the game does
feel slicker and a lot faster than a similar game programmed in BASIC, and
as C is a portable language, skills learnt can be easily transferred to
other hardware.

*************************************
REVOLUTION V RELEASED
*************************************

Lord Crass has released Revolution V

R5 is a program designed to copy disks written in the V-Max! format. Only
a C64 and 1541-compatible disk drive are required to use the copier. Extra drive RAM, parallel cable, or speed adjust are not necessary (or utilized).

FEATURES

* Copies V-Max! versions 2, 3, and 4. There is no support for older
versions, as copiers for those already exist.

* Support for one or two disk drives.

* Optional index-alignment for copies using a stock 1571 or an IHS-equipped 1541.

* Can fix illegal GCR on copies to improve compatibility with drives.

* 1700/1750 RAM expansion support. Third party REUs should also work, as
long as they are 256kB or larger. Be sure to load the REU version of the copier. GeoRAM/SuperRAM is not supported.
