Norman Sirotek and Sir-Tech Software in March of 1999

Alfred C. Giovetti (AG): Thanks for being with us and sharing with us this great information on a brand new game

Norman Sirotek (NS): Good to see you again and I am glad to be here.

AG: I have had many concerned and even frantic calls concerning the status of Wizardry 8, Jagged Alliance 2, Sir-Tech Software, and Attic's Realms series. What gives?

Norman Sirotek The publishing company Sir-Tech Software, Inc. is no more. We closed the firm September 1, 1998. That's the bad news. The good news is the Development Company, Sir-Tech Canada Limited is about to complete Jagged Alliance 2 in about 2 weeks and Wizardry 8 is scheduled for compellation October 99.

AG: Will Sir-Tech be attending E3 in Los Angeles in May of this year?

NS: As for E3, Robert Sirotek and myself will be attending.

Al Giovetti: Norman, I had an email from a reader/viewer who wanted to know when Jagged Alliance would come out in Australia.

Norman Sirotek: We are finishing Beta for JA2 in about a week or two. I estimate we should be shipping in Australia by Mid April.

Whatever happened to the second role playing adventure series from Sir-Tech that came out of Germany

Norman Sirotek: I think you mean the Realms series of products developed by Attic. This series came to an end when we released the third installment. Shadows over Reva. The last time I checked, Attic was not developing any further sequels. We were the publishing company for the series.

AG: I remember Sir-Tech, Norman and Robert from the first Wizardry game. I still have that original Wizardry: The Proving Grounds of the Mad Overloard with personal letters signed by the Sirotechs. I credit that game and some other factors for my current interest in computer games. Over the years Sir-Tech made a reputation for fine work.

NS: I still remember you calling us and writing us for advice and information on the game.

AG: Thanks for being with us for this short interview.

NS: Thanks for having me.

AG: We will look forward to seeing Sir-Tech at E3 in May, and now for something completely different. A new product from . . .
