- RELEASE 11
-
- Well, after much debate and commotion about this little piece of ASCII, I've
- decided to continue the legend!! hehe. Seriously, I do get enjoyment out of
- putting this thing together. Whether it has any value is certainly debateable.
- One thing I really would like to see happen more though would be to get
- questions/comments/curses from the readers of this document back to me on the
- various BBSs around the country. If you are on a popular net, chances are high,
- I'll be able to hear your message and respond to you.
-
- Again, let me caution you that this is is NO WAY indicating that these titles
- and ESPECIALLY the release dates are set in stone. Chances are high that many
- of the dates quoted here are going to change, especially the for the titles
- that are way out in the future. Not even the publishers can accurately predict
- when some of this stuff is going to ship. So don't get REALLY excited over
- the dates that are months away.
-
- In addition, keep in mind that when I say March 1st, I mean sometime around the
- beginning of March; if I say March 15th, I mean the middle of the month, and
- if I say March 31st, I mean sometime near the end of the month. These are
- NOT exact dates it will ship. Also, keep in mind that when publisher does
- tell me a date, it may mean that it has shipped from their location to dist-
- ributors, and not be on shelves for another week or so.
-
- With all this in mind, I hope you enjoy release 11. It has taken a long time
- to put out and it has a great deal of forecast for 1991. There will be plenty
- to add, however, to this list as the year goes on. After CES in June, there
- will be plenty more to add to this list. Enjoy.

- The above-listed TBD titles are "To Be Determined" as of this printing
- because no further information about their status was available. Watch
- for release12.txt to note any changes. Taito has effectively gone out of
- business in the PC arena.
-
- Please note some of the extra attachments that accompany this releases. An
- interesting file from Compuserve on the reviewers "Games of the Year - '90"
- and other interesting things. I've also included an Excel 2.1 spreadsheet
- of the above titles arranged by company. Hope you can use it. If you don't
- already use Excel, START! The next revision will be in Excel 3.0 format,
- formatted for a Postscript printer.
-
- That's it for now. I hope you find the one you're looking for in the list. If
- you have any questions, please feel free to call.
-
- Have fun.
