Welcome gamers to the USA Games News. We know that it has been a very
long time since our last news letter, and we felt it was a good time
to send out a new one. So here we are with news and information about
USA Games and our products.

Hi Al,
Well, you are welcome. Switching Slam over to a C++ based game using
the Evolution Engine was really the best choice. After you and others
brought up the issues with Piledriver and Wrestling League Simulator I
started to reconsider how relevant a text based interface is in
today's gaming
Hi Charles,
Yeah, really. I wrote that news letter to keep everyone apprised of the
situation, explain where we are, and there is always a few people who
want to know why the game isn't available yet. Its certainly irritating
having to explain the same thing over and over again.
Cheers!
Hi Charles,
Interesting. Well, right now developing software for smart phones isn't
high on my list just because I'm so tied up with other projects.
Although, eventually I'll probably look at marketing some games for the
iPhone because its a huge market.

This is very true, and in fact the reason I use orphius alan for Hal but

I have no idea what Dolphin is up to. Like you say the fact they are
so proprietary and secretive about the API makes one wonder how much
of the core functionality it exposes. With Jaws its API only exposes
the functions you absolutely need like JFWSayString(),
JFWStopSpeech(), etc.
