Point of Origin: Vol. III, No. 45 (December 29, 2007)

[Bandit LOAF]

There's nothing too exciting in the August 27, 1993 issue of Point of Origin... several projects are continuing in development as planned, and there's no huge end-of-quarter rush like there was in the previous year. One thing I think we're starting to see here is an increased corporatization of Origin - check out the 'Dear Point Man' answers this time around to see what I mean... although these recent issues have insisted that Origin is independant from EA's normal setup, it looks like the partnership is starting to take its toll.

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!

• This issue's Pulse Check has a status update on Privateer: "In testing: Shadowcaster, which is 'tracking,' (is anyone else getting tired of that story yet?); Privateer, which is reportedly shaping up nicely; and Tactical Ops, which, according to playtesters, is great and should sign off Monday or Tuesday."

Hehe, "Burgermiester".

I think I got Shadowcaster lying around somewhere but I never played it (it came in a games collection which I bought for WC 1 Deluxe). Anyone ever played it?
