However, if you're not new to the series, you might find that there are precious few reasons for you to upgrade to this version from Chessmaster 7000 or even Chessmaster 6000. In fact, while it does have some new features and still plays well, Chessmaster 8000 actually falls short of its two predecessors in the important area of multiplayer support.  The cornerstone of the Chessmaster series has always been its emphasis on teaching beginners how to play and on showing intermediate and advanced players how they can improve their games - and this tradition continues in the 8000 edition. In the classroom mode, beginners will find that Chessmaster 7000's three broad tutorials have been enhanced with new timed drills such as "move to safety" and "pin the piece," and endgame excercises for both beginners and advanced players. Intermediate players will appreciate the inclusion of solutions to the "rating exam" questions, which help give a pretty good idea of where they'd rank in real-life play. Advanced players also have an option to try to predict the moves of famous players in historic games. The massive game database has been updated and expanded, and, of course, the opening book is as robust as ever.   Screen Shots:  <img src="http://i11.tinypic.com/2rcsvbs.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />  <img src="http://i14.tinypic.com/2wf4u42.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />     Code:   <a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/10888369/PC-GAMES_-_CHESS_MASTER_8000__Tested_XP_.zip" target="_blank">http://rapidshare.com/files/10888369/PC-GAMES_-_CHESS_MASTER_8000__Tested_XP_.zip</a></blockquote>
