Darien, CT, November 19, 1998 -- Breaking new ground in the video game industry's hottest-selling genre, the hunting simulation, ASC Games announces the shipment of TNN Outdoors Pro Hunter for PC CD-ROM. In stores by Thanksgiving, TNN Outdoors Pro Hunter raises the stakes by incorporating the revolutionary Unreal 3D technology, the expertise of one of the nation's premiere media and entertainment companies, The Nashville Network (TNN) and Realtree Outdoors hunting expert, Bill Jordan. TNN Outdoors Pro Hunter was developed by Dreamforge Intertainment * the same development team responsible for ASC Games' critically acclaimed PC title, Sanitarium.

"People can shoot their own virtual turkey or other game of choice this Holiday season and year-round with TNN Outdoors Pro Hunter," said Steve Grossman, CEO of ASC Games.
