Come See Cool Games from Aspyr at our November 10th Meeting

Thursday, November 10, 2005
7:30 PM to 9:30 PM

LEGO Star Wars Box
Aspyr is an Austin based company founded in 1996 by loyal Apple fans who decided to do something about the dearth of quality games for the Macintosh.

With a name that represents their desire to build something great, to aim high, and to always drive toward the next challenge with total confidence, Aspyr has set itself apart as the world leader in Mac game publishing, owning 60 percent of the Macintosh entertainment market.

Aspyr is continuing to stretch out among different entertainment platforms. With the upcoming release of Stubbs the Zombie: Rebel Without a Pulse this fall, Aspyr will be publishing its first original title for Mac, PC and Xbox. In addition, Stubbs accompanying soundtrack, also being released later this year, is the first record produced by Aspyr.
Glenda Adams, Andrew Brazell and Karri Scott of Aspyr will return for a fourth straight year to show us the latest top games for the Mac, and may even provide a sneak preview of what's coming in the near future.

We'll be treated to special demonstrations of these awesome new games: Plus, the generous folks from Aspyr will sell a special selection of their current games at our meeting at prices you can't beat anywhere else, so don't forget your allowance!

It will be a great time to pick up awesome gifts for friends, family, or yourself at prices you won't believe!
