    February 14, 1992: the delays of Strike Commander, Ultima VII and Underworld have forced Origin to push ahead several budget 'collection' releases. Here we see that plan put into practice, plus some frank (and cautiously positive) discussion of the company's future. Of course, there's plenty of Wing Commander in the mix...

    A very special thanks to Joe Garrity of the Origin Museum for making this resource available and to Electronic Arts for sending them to him in the first place!

    Here's the breakdown for Wing Commander:
    • Rollout!!! details the release of three games to make up for the Ultima delays - including the deluxe edition of Wing Commander I. It tells a pretty interesting story about some games that you probably thought were just routine 'shovelware':
    • The Envelope, Please reports on yet more honors for Wing Commander 2. These upcoming awards will be a recurring issue in the next several newsletters:

    …say, four runs at a reduced rate in exchange for access to your files, Mr Masterson?

    Sorry, I'm getting the infamous 404 error again. :(
