Dear IMG: I was really sphyked to find my letter got published on September’s issue. After reading, though, I felt I was a little harsh. After reading Drake’s next article, I felt really, really bad - I agreed with everything he said and loved the article.
So Drake: No hard feelings I hope? It’s good to see the non-complaining side of you. Neilinator via AOL
DOOM Preview
Dear IMG: In your sneak peek of Doom, you failed to mention whether it will be networkable, and most importantly, if it will be networkable with IBM versions! This would be a tremendous step toward Mac/IBM peristroika, plus would increase sales. I will be more likely to buy it if I can link up with my next-door neighbor, than if I have to go searching for other Mac players. JR Clark via AOL
- At press time that's all the information we had on DOOM for the Mac. With some luck, we'll be doing a real Sneak Peek of DOOM in a future issue of IMG -TD
Questions about the NEW IMG CD Magazine
Dear IMG: I am interested in upgrading to the CD-ROM subscription, but do not want to loose the January and July issues. Does this mean that I have to have 2 subscriptions in order to get the January and July issues, or will the CD-ROM subscribers receive the disk versions during those months? Christopher Aries via CompuServe
- The January and July disk issues will be bundled together with the February and August issues of IMG in those later months. Also, everything that is on the January and July issues will be on the February and August CD-ROM's so you loose nothing! Sorry, once you subscribe or upgrade to the CD-ROM version, you don't get the disks anymore. —TD
Dear IMG: Is there any way I can have my IMG CD, and keep my disk? I have had a subscription since April and love your magazine. When you announced the CD version I wanted it bad. The only problem is I don’t have a ROM drive but have limited access to one. Is there an upgrade version to receive a CD-ROM and disk too? Trevor Hinkley - Sonara, California
- If you really want to get both versions, you'll need to subscribe to both versions seperately. —TD
TacOps is Here!
Dear IMG: Could I suggest you consider doing another article on ‘TacOps’ now that it’s out? The earlier one was a fine preview, but now the game is out and it is so good that I think it merits some more attention. In particular, the degree of tech support for it has been so phenomenal that the company deserves public recognition and congratulations for taking such care with an area all too often neglected by other publishers. DaveFH via AOL
- The November issue of Inside Mac Games will have a review of TacOps, check it out then! —TD
Where’s Fool’s Errand?
Dear IMG: You said this was a new release. Does this mean that the game is different from the original, or just a re-release of the original Fool’s Errand?
I tried calling Miles Computing using the number you included, but instead reached a private residence, informing me that Miles Computing was out of business and this number was private. What’s going on? If that is correct, how can I obtain a copy of the game? Jonsam via AOL
- Unfortunately, no, it is not a differenet version of a re-release of Fool's Errand and it was a mistake publishing a phone number that hasn't been in existance for years. We apologize for this. Reviews featured in The Bottom Shelf are reviews of old games, some are still available, some are discontinued. If you have a hard time finding an old game and interested in buying some of these old games, we suggest visiting the classifieds sections on some online services like AOL, eWorld, CompuServe, etc. —TD
