== Letters ==

* 4DO (Page 41) - Letter asking about the M2 add on.

I have just bought a 3DO
and I've been hearing things
about an add-on. What does it
do? How much will it cost?
Will there be games just for
the add-on? When will it
be available?

PS Your mag
is wicked.

Robert Davey,
Colchester,
Essex

The add-on is
currently called M2. It’s
a 64-bit Power PC chip
with all kinds of nice knobs on.
Games for 3DO will take some
advantage of it, but, more
importantly, games will be written
purely for the add-on. It should be
available next Autumn

==Other 3DO mentions==

* Front Page - Text mention - "3DO Virtuoso - Rock n roll Apocalypse"
* Page 45 - UK CD Chart - Doesn't say which format its on, but potentially 4 3DO games. Picture next to it, is of Theme Park and the caption "Theme Park gets a new lease of life now its out on the 3DO as well"
