Apple ][ version mentioned in new Wolfenstein game

[John Drake <jamesbond007NOSPAM@mac.com>]

Hey gang,

I just picked up the PC game Return to Castle Wolfenstein today in the
collector's tin.

The manual is made to look like an old German passport book or
something similar.

Some pages have trivia about the previous versions or the programmers.

Silas Warner's original Apple ][ version is mentioned - but
unfortunately they get a number of details wrong.

It says the game came out in 1983.

Wrong. 1981. (1983 was when it was released for other platforms like
Commodore and Atari).

Then it proceeds to describe the details of the game and it mixes
details from both Castle Wolfenstein and Beyond Castle Wolfenstein as
if they were a single game.

BCW came out in 1984.

Well anyway, I am happy it got mentioned at all.  The original is still
the best.

If anyone is interested, I am going to be creating a website devoted to
the original Castle Wolfenstein and its sequels.

It will have inside info, scans of original advertisements (there are
two comic book style ads for the original that are just killer!),
downloads, parodies, etc. etc.

If anyone would like to contribute or just talk about Castle
Wolfenstein, please drop me a line.
