Microprose Press Release (GP2)

by Pete » Fri, 17 May 1996 04:00:00

I just took a look at the Microprose Press release page at

http://www.racesimcentral.net/

and theres a press release for GP2 dated today (16th May).

It talks a lot about the game features we all know about, but doesn't mention a release date (surprised?). The press release gives telephone numbers for orders but I don't know which country the non-USA/Canada numbers are for.

Does this mean GP2 release is imminent???  Is this an old press release that I've not seen before?  Joker, if you're reading this, what the score???   I think we should be told.

Hi Pete,
        The latest release date I have on Grand Prix II is: mid to late
summer. The 800 number for orders is for US callers. For Canada and
international orders the number is: (619) 549-0222.

Best,

Thanks for the followup, Joker, but whats your definition of 'mid to late summer'?

mid summer  = August 16th?
late summer = September 27th?

I think, MP will release the game around Christmas 1996. Have you ever heard
of a "TOP" game released in summer ????

Bye

Civilisation 2, also by Microprose.....?

It'll be here in the summer, being a British game, around the time of
the British Grand Prix sounds good...

Cheers!
John

Pete,
        I wish it was _my_ definition that counts, it will be right now! <g>
That's what we're being told, mid to late summer, no definition. I'm
sure the more we get closer to release, you'll see a specific date on
our next announcement.
