OCR: Chessmaster 3000 - A Review by Thom Vaught (Chess Beginner/Novice) As I mentioned above, I am not a chess expert. I've never played in a tournament. I also have never played a rated player. Therefore, I will not be evaluating the challenge of the game. Someone else with more experience will perhaps do that. I will review the game based on its functionality (what it does), usability (how easy it is to accomplish things), and utility (its usefulness). Functionality: Chessmaster 3000 (CM3k) has the functionality that most Beginners-Intermediates would expect. However it adds some new twists. The review of functionality is divided into sections corresponding to the menu options available. Game : The game menu is standard fare for a mainstream chess program. Options include loading saving games and beginning new games. However there are improvements. The Import and Export functions are nice additions.
