Anyone know of any stores >where I can purchase it? Please don't take offense at all of this.. I will probably sound absolutely pissed off but I don't mean it.. at least not completely. YOU MUST NOT HAVE READ MY ORIGINAL ARTICLE COMPLETELY! I did --not-- say that Rescue Raiders GS was released. I did not even say it was done. It MAY NOT be released. I do not know. I just know that arrangements were made with a well known GS software company to make the game... THAT IS ALL. People are reading WAY WAY WAY WAY too much into what I said. Instead of waiting for Rescue Raiders GS which could possibly not happen (I am not saying it will or won't), go BUY XENOCIDE, RASTAN, ALIEN MIND, CRYSTAL QUEST, ARKANOID I and II and any other awesome GS games I've forgotten to mention.. And pay the shareware fees on FTA's demos, Bouncing Bluster, Brian Greenestone's (author of Xenocide) shareware games, and any other of these I've forgotten. Just please pay for the present games you play and admire (which I am saving up money to do) instead of waiting for something that may not happen. Hell, we all know how much of a piece of crap Gauntlet GS is/was... Rescue Raiders --could-- turn out to be that bad. I AM NOT SAYING IT WILL OR IT WON'T.. I AM JUST SAYING TO LIVE IN THE PRESENT ABOUT GS SOFTWARE. I am waiting for new things to come out too... I guess also one of the main things that I'm trying to do is YELL SO PEOPLE HOPEFULLY PAY MORE ATTENTION TO EXACTLY WHAT I (and others) say! -- / Apple II(GS) Forever! unknown@ucscb.ucsc.edu \ \"If cartoons were meant for adults, they'd be on in prime time."-Lisa Simpson/
