THG Task Assignment Manager is an invaluable utility for anyone with a multi-processor or multi-core computer. It allows you to increase the speed of your computer by configuring certain tasks to individual processors. Known as "affinity," this will save your program settings and maintain profiles of them in the future. This has many benefits including:

• Keeping one program from using all your system resources
• Increasing speed to two or more programs that aren't optimized for multi-processor systems
• Helping run some games that require a correct affinity setting to run properly

CursorUS is a small application that eliminates the boundaries of your screen in the same way that many games do: they "wrap" the mouse over. In other words, move your mouse past the left side of your screen and it'll appear on the right side. Takes plenty getting used to but can be pretty handy. It is very customizable as well.

Duty and Beyond is an above-average adventure game about a man who will deliver a pizza at any cost. A nice twist in this game is that there's no need to backtrack to find items: they will appear in your inventory when you need them at the expense of your overall score.

Super Mario War is a tribute to the old "versus" Mario games with a wealth of features and game modes. The goal is to primarily hop on your opponents, though powerups such as Fire Flowers, Hammers, Invincibility and more are available to help you defeat your foes. AI "bots" are also available and are usually quite a challenge, though their performance can vary from map to map. Super Mario War also supports extra maps and skins.

Titanion is, in the author's words, a "strike down super high-velocity swooping insects" game. In short, it's yet another abstract Kenta Cho shooter that hits a home run with just about any gamer by putting a few fun twists on tried-and-true gameplay. As with all his other games, the graphics, sound, and control are all just right, making this yet another worthy addition to any gamer's arsenal.
