Non-game entries in HOL

Daff · 17 January 2008, 09:11

I know it's difficult to class multimedia/educational titles, but there are "Insight Dinosaurs" and "Insight Technology" which seems to be really non-game entries.

Generaly, educational software have a quiz or some things to do. But this two titles are only encyclopedias with text to read and images to view.

Is there someone who have these titles ? If someone can confirm, I think you can delete them from HOL.

Another non-game entry : The Tipster (http://hol.abime.net/3460).

It's a result predictor. There is non "playing dimension" in this program.

I've removed The Tipster. Not sure about the Insight ones and we'll probably keep them along with the other edu titles.

Another non game entry : Course Winner 3 (Selec) (http://hol.abime.net/4201). Same remark as The Tipster. Selec have also make two others similar programs : Pools Winner and Pools Winner 2. Don't enter them on HOL.

I think you can also delete Intraset, developer/publisher of titles like Perm Master, Course Master, Pools Master and Track Master. Intraset have published only pools predictor programs for the Amiga but never games [source : Martin Evans from Intraset].
