CYBERPUNKS ENTERTAINMENT PRESS RELEASE - 8/23/99 http://www.cyberpunks.uni.cc/ (see bottom for more on how to best access our homepage) Last week saw us debut two new products at the Classic Gaming Expo. Today, Cyberpunks Entertainmnet is proud to announce the release of Stella At 20: Volume 2 and Stella Gets a New Brain v. 2.0 to the general public. Stella at 20, background: Over the course of August 1997, interviews were shot for a video documentary entitled Stella at 20: An Atari 2600 Retrospective. The founders of Atari, the original engineers, the famous programmers, and some lesser known programmers were gathered together to look back on the system that launched the home videogame industry. Volume 2 focuses on the individual programmers, their background, and in-depth discussions of the games they created, covering all eras of the system. This volume debuted at the Classic Gaming Expo in Las Vegas on August 15th. At close to 90 minutes in length, this volume is now available via mail order. VOLUME TWO - "The Game Designers" or "One Person, One Game" Featuring: Al Miller - Surround, Basketball, Starmaster David Crane - Canyon Bomber, Dragster, Pitfall, Pitfall II Larry Kaplan - Air-Sea battle, Kaboom Carol Shaw - Polo, River Raid Larry Wagner - Video Chess Bob Smith - Riddle of the Sphinx, Dragonfire Dennis Koble - Comments about Easter Eggs Tod Frye - Pac-Man, Save Mary Rick Maurer - Space Invaders Rob Fulop - Night Driver, Missile Command, Demon Attack Steve DeFrisco - Secret Quest, Motorodeo, Klax Preview page: http://www.cyberpunks.uni.cc/stellaat20_2.html (The VOLUME ONE box art is complete and the footage is currently still being edited. It should be ready for release within the next 8 weeks. We will be putting up a preview page soon. VOLUME ONE is the story of the design of the 2600, followed by a discussion of the videogame boom, the death of Atari, and what might have been had different decisions been made. It also will include a session where the programmers discuss the differences between the industry of then vs. today, easing into a summary on what the 2600 really means in the larger scheme of the history of videogames.) Stella Gets a new Brain Here it is, the re-release of the Starpath Supercharger catalog! The CD celebrated in Wired magazine in '97 and currently selling for hundreds of dollars is back, and this time there is enough to go around! Play the audio files into your Supercharger, either from a CD-Player or use WPLAYBIN or Makewav and generate your own audio files on the PC for loading into the Supercharger.

The full preview page: http://www.cyberpunks.uni.cc/stellagetsbrain2.html PRICING: The pricing scheme may seem a little complicated, but we tried to come up with the best discounts and incentives for those who buy both the CD and the tape, or those who buy in large volume. The system is as follows: All Cyberpunks products start out at an individual $30 base price and are modified via the tables below: Volume Pricing (volume orders of individual items): 1 = $30 10 = $25 50 = $20 (email first) 100 = $10 (email first) Shipping cost starts out at a base of $1.50 plus $1.50 for each unit ordered up to the total of 10 units (of each type). From 11 to 20 units, the base is $3.00 and one dollar for each unit. Orders above 20 units, please Email for precise shipping costs and ordering information. Actual total pricing on high volume orders is negotiable. Shipping Cost Chart: 1-10 total units $1.50 + 1.50/unit 11-20 total units $3.00 + $1.00/unit Special BUNDLE discount!: As an incentive to purchasing both items, whenever you buy the CD and the video in one order, you will receive a $10 discount on your order. This applies to each and every pair of CDs and Tapes you order up to the maximum order of 10cds/10tapes. Volume orders above 10 are not eligible, as volume pricing discounts already save you money. So, if you order 3 tapes and 2 CDs, you pair up the CDs and tapes and apply a $10 discount to each pair, hence a $20 discount. 5 tapes and 2 CDs is a $20 discount. Typical orders: 1 CD + 1 tape = $4.50 shipping = $64.50 - ($10.00 bundle discount!) = $54.50 total ($59.00 California residents) 1 CD or 1 tape = $3.00 shipping = $33.00 total ($35.72 California Residents) To simplify things, we have a fully interactive order form. Just pick the number of units you like, and the scripting will do the rest. Then just print and send your order in to us. This may only function properly under Internet Explorer 4.0 or greater because it uses VBScript and Dynamic HTML. If you experience difficulties, you can click a link use a blank form and follow the above rules. Any difficulties, please email cybpunks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx The order form can be found here: http://www.cyberpunks.uni.cc/order.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ HOW TO GET TO OUR HOMEPAGE: http://www.cyberpunks.uni.cc This is our new official URL, which is a redirection (i.e. an alias) to our actual site on Geocities.
