- It has actually been ready for release way before then, but Ocean don`t
- believe there is a market for something that requires an Amiga with a
- harddirve, an `030 & extra memory to run okish at full detail :( . The sad
- thing is that they may well be right.... Sales of Virtual Karting Deluxe &
- Star Fighter will tell!
-
- As for putting TFX in an Amiga bundle - Ocean already tried with the Amiga
- Magic pack. The last I heard they were 'watching the market'. With the
- advent of the 'Walker' (nice casing, horrid code-name), AT would be well
- advised to talk to them again!
