Mike Oldfield's Online Game Makes Like A Maestro

Thanks to Terra Nova for pointing to information about Maestro, a game billed as 'Mike Oldfield's Virtual Reality Online Quest'. The title, created by the composer of the multi-million selling '70s album Tubular Bells, goes on to promise "a free form world offering a refreshing alternative to the typical, task-orientated 'in-your-face' computer game", although the gameplay seems somewhat less 'free form': "Your job is to find the Gravitars, bring them home to the mothership and put them in their pen." The demo is available from Mike Oldfield's website, and the full game is available next month for around UKP15 (USD28).

THIS GAME ROCKS: if you are into drainpipe exploration

Don't knock drainpipe-exploration games. Nintendo made a mint on the Mario Bros franchise :)

The challenge is on!
