- I don't own OOTW _yet_ ... but I've seen it at KFest & Expo East... This is
- one game that everyone _must_ buy! All the graphics are done with scaled
- poly-fill and the detail is supurb... it definitly sets new standards in GS
- games. A side note, if sales demonstrate that there is indeed a GS market
- Interplay will probably give Bill even more latitude in this arena.

- OOTW is hard to describe... an interactive arcade style adventure? er...
- Somebody, help me out here :) Basically the character is a scientist working
- at a particle accelerator facility. During a test an electrical storm mangles
- the accelerator run and the scientist gets blasted to an alternate dimension.
- Then the game starts getting really good! All this is done with excellent
- animation which you have amazing control over. This will definitly be a xmas
- present to my hard drive this year.
