Here is a gaming survey my new partners and I put together. we are trying
to get a feel for the Computer gaming atmosphere to help us in producing
our first released game.
This survey will be held in confidence so please answer the questions
honestly.
I will post a summery to the news groups that show enough interest.
Thank you for your help
Steve
