The long awaited Panasonic 3DO REAL System finally hit the UK last week,
and looks set to be a big seller.  Although sales in the US have been
far less than expected, they are starting to pick up now, with 200,000
units now sold.  The initial batch of games titles are very impressive,
and the future looks even more so.  Play Road Rash once, and you'll be
hooked.  UK prices are £400 for the player, and £40-50 for a game title.
Later in the year/early next year, the FMV expansion will be released
amd will allow 3DO onwers to watch Video CD's.  The unit will retail at
around the £200 mark, which is identical to the Commodore CD32 unit
released 8 Months Ago.  The CD32 is going to have a fight on it's hands
if good quality games do not start appearing.
