There was a time when Electronic Games was putting out a newsletter of extra news & stuff they couldn't get into the mag, or was more timely. For a while it was called Arcade Express and later changed to Hotline. Anybody have any of these?

Somebody asked me which issues I had, and it turns out we both have Vol. 1 #10 through Vol. 1 #26 of Arcade Express and Vol. 2 #1 through Vol. 2 #11 of Hotline. Were there any others? I'm pretty sure there's no gap between them, as they were both biweekly and the dates match up, but I'm not sure how we'd both miss the first 9... And are there more issues after Vol. 2 #11?

Of course, if anyone has these, I might be interested in purchasing any I don't have, as well as just rounding up the info. :-)

I've got them all - there are 26 Arcade Expresses (Vol 1) and 27 Hotlines (Vol 2 has 26 issues, Vol 3 has 1). This is reflected in the DP Guide, check the Publications section.

I'm not selling my set but you should have come to CGE in 2002, a set was auctioned off CHEAP - I don't think the crowd in general realized the significance of what they were bidding on.

Argh! I knew there was a list, but didn't realize it was in the Guide. Sorry, Joe... But thanks for the info.

Yeah, I know I should be at CGE, but it keeps getting scheduled on bad dates. ;-)
