review of genetic dreams #16 from tnc
----------------------------------------

yes.this time the trinomic mag 'genetic
dreams' issue 16 which was released in
january '93 is going to be reviewed.

the first chapter is as usual the
editorial. here we find an excuse for
the non-possible-loadingoperation when
the 'genetic' logo is not on the scrren,
information about the new crunching
system that they will use next issue,
credits and a list of people who
supported the mag in some way.
the editors have also put the reactions
in here. in one reaction the staff
is tought that there were double
entries in the charts last issue like
moz(ic)art/geir tjelta. furthermore
there is some text about alpha flight
who had a comeback in their view.

the second chapter is the newschapter
which is normally the most interesting
chapter but in this mag it is not.
the reader is informed that somebody
in acrise had birthday some days ago.
in the following we read that the
story about the comeback of alpha flight
is a fake. i just wonder why they did
not erase the text about afl in the
editorial if they knew the truth
afterwards. reading on i get bored by
either old news or lamer news. only
about 5 more or less hot elite news
are placed in this chapter.
i could not stop laughing when i read
the following news:clique claimed that
their last issue of script had 2000
blocks of text but trinomic checked it
out and found out that clique lied
because there were only 1800 blocks of
text. congratulation to the editors
for printing such a 'news'. do you
think anybody cares about that?
in order to make the news longer the
editors printed numbers of success
boards in this chapter. what do you have
the boards chapter for?

next chapter are the charts. here we get
the prove that the 'editors' did not
learn from the reactions. again a double
entry:we find geir tjelta on place 14
and moz(ic)art on place 17. in the
news chapter we got the old information
that'gamers guide' is back. now in the
mag-charts they write the following:
"...... gamers guide(dead?). very
strange. nothing more to say about this.

the megacharts is the next chapter.
but the editors did not even name the
mags they got the votes from.
i quote:"they were taken from several
magazines(?) which i don't remember at
the moment." and again doubleentries
like in the previous charts.

now let's load the inter3iews. they got
an interview with anarchy/rsi/5d and
tell the readers that "he left the
scene" which is of course wrong.
i got disapointed when i read exactly
the same dull questions as usual in
this chapter of genetic dreams. and i
died laughing because the staff has
probably never heard of grammer in
english. i quote:"how do you entered
the scene...and how do you come to your
current group?" that's what we call
germanism. another nice exemple is:
"if you could take a person into your
group,which would you let join?"
i'm sorry for the two who had to read
and answer these questions.

after this i checked out the crack
reviews. i flipped through it and saw
that there was often only one cracker
listed per game which made the
2 chapters totally unobjective.
i feel very pitty for the editors
because they also listed a cracker
called 2dd/alpha flight although they
wrote in the news-chapter that afl
was just a fake. the staff seemed to be
totally confused.

now i loaded the demoreviews-chapter.
the first demo review was 'hental
mangover' from faces. we get to know
from gaylen:"i was a little bit angry,
coz i expected a little bit more from
a faces-demo..." i'm sure that faces
is sorry for gaylen and will next time
release a better demo which also
plaeses him.
the review of the demo "goatland" from
noice was very incomplete.
about the intro the editor did not
mention the zooming and turning goatland
logo before the bitmap scroller appears.
to the fractal-part i read the following
statemant:"nice plotting exemples,but
also shown ages ago by other dudes."
the typical statement of a lamer who
can't code himslef but slags on
everything. furthermore he forgot to
say that the fractals got animated after
some time and turned around all axis.
another incomplete description is the
one about the vector part. the vectors
were hidden line!
about the elastic line part he wrote:
"looks nice,but i think i have seen
something like this before."
he has seen such a routine before!!!!
quite amazing to know that.
by the way i want to mention that
the wrong punctuations in the last
quotations are not my fault.
just another quotation about the part
with the goat sprite and the swedish
flag:"have a closer look at the raster-
lines above the logo.theres a bug!!!!!
it's a simple part,so such kinds of bugs
mustn't be in such parts!!!"
(the amount of exclamation-marks is not
changed!) in all the reviews the editor
never mentioned the coder,gfx-artist or
musician who created the demo. luckily
another editor is taking over this
chapter in the next issue.

in the film-corner i awaited reviews of
new movies but just read two reviews
of movies that were already quite old.

the next chapter was named "groningen"
and contained a report taken from a crap
note(!) which was written at the meeting
.
"a. party" was a report about gaylen's
new years eve party. this chapter had
the highest amont of text. we get to
know that gaylen wanted to cut someones
dick and play ping pong with his eggs
and other shit. gaylen really deservres
his name. reading this chapter is a
total waste of time.

4 addy chapters give the mag more text.
nothing special to say about them.

the following chapter was named
"coderippers". it contained a text about
ozzy coderippers taken from a note(!)
which was written by an australian guy.
nothing of interest.

"boards" gave us some information about
2 boards and some news. very short
chapter.

happy because i read nearly the hole
mag without taking any harm i chose the
last chapter called "racism". here i
read some nice articles about growing
racism in germany. most of the text was
again(!) taken from notes.

summary,conclusion and rating of
'genetic dreams #16":
the amount of text is ok. but most of
the text (reports,...) is crap and too
much text is not selfmade (taken from
notes). the reviews lack any objectivity
and are incomplete. the news are mostly
old or cannot be called 'news'. the
questions of the interviews make you
bawl.

points:1 out of 10
