Revision 5.0 (September 1994)
|
|
|
|
THIS section of Frontier has been altered slightly. Now only future
|
|
releases will be listed, as is hard for me to keep up with all the games
|
|
that have been released by a month-by-month basis. So far, the "released
|
|
recently" and "to be released soon" categories have been fairly
|
|
inaccurate, and far from comprehensive anyway. If somebody who works for
|
|
a console retailer/distribution and regularly gets release lists can
|
|
help out, then please contact me.
|
|
|
|
Releases listed are based on US release, you may have to wait a few
|
|
weeks in other countries such as the UK/Europe and Australia. This list
|
|
is included separately (not as part of the main text) because it is
|
|
likely to grow much larger in the future. I'd prefer that it was kept in
|
|
this archive and not posted or distributed separately without my
|
|
permission.
|
|
|
|
These are titles that will be appearing in the next month-six months
|
|
time. This list does not list all new titles, as most likely other
|
|
titles will be announced, and some titles may change. A list such as
|
|
this could cover many hundreds of games in production, though only the
|
|
main (promising) ones and titles that *appear* to be the closest to
|
|

RELEASE PREDICTIONS :- I have decided rather than to repeat predictions,
|
|
each issue will be a new list, or only revised predictions. Check back
|
|
through previous issues for older predictions.
|
|
The important thing to remember is that they are only personal
|
|
*predictions* or games that I would like to see and nothing else.
|
|
Somebody asked how I chose which system they appeared on - well the
|
|
answer is that I checked which developers are signed up for what
|
|
consoles and if they were, added them to that system.
|
|
|
|
Nascar Racing : Driving/simulation : Papyrus : 3DO, Saturn
|
|
Alone in/Dark 3 : Adventure : Icarus : 3DO
|
|
|
|
* These are only pure speculation, so take them as they are.
