- In order to most effectively publish and process all of the 'BIG'
- computer titles expected this fall/winter, we would like to propose
- that those who "can be persuaded" to write reviews for Game Bytes sign
- up now for the titles of their choice (those that they plan to buy) so
- we can most effectively plan what issues will contain which reviews.
- I hope you see the expediency in this. It will help out immensely if
- we can do a bit of advanced planning like this. If the title you
- expect to buy (or end up buying anyway :-) is not on this list, that's
- o.k. Please let us know anyway and we'll definitely work it in.
