[MP3] The 7th Guest Intro: The 7th Guest was the first CD ROM game to sell more than 20,000 copies. death Quite unexpectedly, it quickly sold over a million and a half, ending the joke that "Multimedia is the Zero Billion Dollar Industry." The developers accepted my bizarre suggestion of putting 20 minutes of death "CD music" on the disk as a bonus. But the technology wasn't understood well. A week before release, Virgin nearly cancelled all redbook audio from the game because they couldn't figure out how to burn it. Also, T7G was the death first General MIDI game, which caused some trouble when it turned out that General MIDI was not a complete specification. We fixed pretty effectively by implementing the Fat Labs Testing Service and working with the Midi Manufacturers Association. On the MAC, Virgin released the game in two CD's: Disk 1--the Game, Disk 2--the Music. [MP3] 7th Guest Game Balance Mix: Now we get into trouble. I confess, I'm getting into repetitive beat dance music for my own head, but I haven't published any.
