- Is it just me or does anybody else think we may never see Strike
- Commander? I mean, Origin missed Christmas 91 and now Christmas 92.
- It seems like they are having all sorts of problems with this thing.
- Chris Roberts is on, what, his 3rd graphics engine? I have a nasty
- feeling Origin is going to scrap Strike Commander and concentrate on
- Wing Commander sequels and additions.

- These dates tell me one thing, the game software industry really
- could care less about the Christmas Season. Its just another couple
- months to them. I keep hearing about how Jan/Feb of each year is a
- slow time for software sales. How can this be, when tons of software
- that failed to make the Chistmas Season show up then?
