Most hunting simulations come with a number of "cheat codes" that allow you to adjust the ratio of blood to sport. In Deer Hunter II, for instance, you can start the hunt with a deer in view rather than work for 15 minutes or so to attract one by scattering scent lures or rattling antlers. Another code permits the hunter to race along, as if on horseback, at the same speed as the running deer. But if you bag a buck while using a cheat code, you're barred from mounting its head in the virtual trophy room...

...calculation behind Starr's interview was painfully transparent even in his dress: casual-Friday blazer and open-necked plaid sport shirt, chosen as if to say, "You know me.

Genre hopping is the favorite sport of today's pop stars, and few performers play the game better than Beck. On his major-label debut, Mellow Gold (1994), Beck helped re-energize folk motifs by combining them with hip-hop beats. On his new album, Mutations (DGC), Beck has mostly abandoned hip-hop. His new sound draws largely from older, traditional styles: pure folk, blues and, on the spirited song Tropicalia, bossa nova. The energy of Beck's hip-hop/folk experimentation is missed here; this is a ruminative album that's more about quiet revelation than sonic revolution...
