NOOOO!

Whatever you do, avoid Awesome Possume like the plague. It's a bad
Sonic clone, the digitized voice samples are frequent and obnoxious
(and no, they can't be turned off) and the levels are completely
uninspired. Unless you're looking to collect bad games or something.

LOL. I probably will avoid that one. I did order Tinhead though, and
LandStalker. LOL.

I bought king of monsters a couple of weeks ago. It's pretty good. I
still need the second one. I'll get it eventually.
