MSX Xmas demo 2002
Chaos, BiFi and Wolf created the MSX Xmas demo 2002 for your enjoyment. The demo needs an MSX2 computer with 128KB RAM and 128KB VRAM. There's music for MSX-MUSIC and MSX-AUDIO, but you get the best sound when you plug in your Moonsound cartridge.
Today, the MSX Association website was officially opened. On the website, there are some small corrections to the texts in MSX Magazine 2003. Also, a bug concerning the PocketPC version of MSXPLAYer was reported. A fix can probably be downloaded from the website soon.
Snow fighters
Slotman of MSX Files prepared a nice christmas gift for the MSX Community. On his site, you can download the game Snow Fighters. Although there's no music and a few bugs, it's really funny to play. The objective of the game is to throw snowballs at your opponent.

The unofficial MSXPLAYer website posted an article on the new MSX Magazine. There are some pictures of the magazine and information on the contents. Unfortunately, MSXPLAYer gave the testing system a hard time with 100% CPU usage continuously.
After a long period of silence, aamsx is back with the first english review of MSX Magazine 2003 on the web. There are a few pictures of the magazine and a summary of its contents.
Yesterday, two days earlier than expected, the first people who ordered MSX Magazine at Amazon received their magazines, sealed in an 'MSX inside' cover. It is not clear whether or not other (web)shops delivered the magazine as well.The first reactions are mainly positive.
A few days ago, a new version of MESS was released. With MESS it is possible to emulate many computer systems, including MSX1 and MSX2. Go to the official MESS home page to download MESS.
