Version: Chart Wars 3 1.1.3
"Good concept and great potential. Needs more work"
Pros: Good concept. Would have been great if it was graphical with potential artists walking in. Also listening to scratchy demo tapes listening for the next big thing would be nice.
Cons: Can run slowly sometimes even though the graphics is limited
If it was dumbed down a little it would be good. There wasn't enough help telling what I was supposed to be doing.
Getting rid of the visual basic icon would be a nice touch

Version: Chart Wars 3 1.1.3
"Addictive precursor to Chart Wars: Rise to Stardom"
Pros: The depth and accuracy of the database are excellent. Game play is fun and addictive. Has us wating in anticipation for the next level.
Cons: Some of the interactions that happen in a real world record label would work well here. For instance, the ability to place a recording artist in rehab would be nice. It would also be great to be able to cancel a tour in the middle and deal with the fan response to such an action.

The editor might crash the whole game
Many small bugs
