I am attempting to contact MiscoProse and press them about porting some of their games to the NeXT. I don't know what their position on this will be but If you would like to put in your $0.02 worth I would like to collect a list of comments and encouragemet to send them. If you are not familiar with MicroProses Games they prodouce the following games for the PC: Civilization Gunship 2000 ( Helocopter ) M1 Abrams F-117 Stealth Fighter Knights of the Sky ( WW 1 dogfights ) Jump Jet Red Storm Rising ( Sub combat Simulator ) and others What I would like to get is letters encouraging them to make the port, info on what you would be willing to pay for a game thet really takes advantage of what the NeXT can do ( I figure I'd pay about $100 for an insanley great game that really uses the NeXT's capabilities on CDRom and up to $70 for just a well done port. Head to head SLIP options would be good for another $20 bucks ). Anything else you care to send will be apreciated. Please pass this along to any and evert NeXT owner and Poyential NeXT owner you know. If you want to bring it up at a users group meeting that would be great too!!. Please send youy letters to: zeke@znext.cts.com Please put the word Games in the subject so I can sort things a bit easier. This address is a NeXT, so NeXT Mail is quite alright.
