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.
