I've spent the better half of the last 9 months researching the marketing of GS software, and what I have found is that _no_ companies will release anything "specifially" for the GS unless it was previously released on the IBM or "can" be released on the IBM. They all admit that they make a profit off of GS warz, but the profit is so minimal, that they find that they can better spend their time promoting and producing games for other machines. The only company that does not believe in this is PBI. But they can make a good profit off the GS because they have a very low overhead, and they dont waste millions of dollars with unneccesary personell. Electronic Arts did take a giant leap when they released Zany Golf, but they did it as an experiment to test the GS market. I think they regretted it... -Brian G.
