Hi Elaine,
I appreciate your concern over my release of Pacman Talks at the same time
as Change Reaction.
I don't blame James for this coincidence...
Hay, James did send me a free Monkey Business CD.
Could there be a bug in it that reports back to him about the release dates
of my games?
Then there is Freedom Scientific hogging ACB radio Main Menu, just when the
Pacman Talks review is finished and sitting waiting to be aired.
Then there is David Greenwood going on vacation when he could be busy
finishing Tank Commander!
Then there is my wife breaking her foot just when we were ready to go to
last year's convention!
Maybe David Lant was a British agent reporting to James on European game
companys.
Yes, you're right there is a conspiracy!
Don't worry Elaine, I have Driveway ready to be released the day James
releases Raceway!
And I think Hunter has had enough e-mail traffic to get the award as the
most talked about game released this year.
Maybe it was Justin's Day by Day sending a report back to him on ESP game
releases!
Smiles,
Phil
