For those of you who haven't seen the add for "The 11th Hour", here is
what the ad says. (Spacing close to ad layout.):

    After 70 years,

		only one thing can awaken the horror.

   desire.





		[rather eclectic graphic here]


			Robin Morales believes in evil.
			She trails it for a living.
			But now she's vanished in the Stauf mansion,
			where a madman once perfected murder.

			Too bad you don't believe in anything.
			Because you're going in after her.

			With over an hour of live-action video,
			faster and smoother graphics, hogh quality,
		     full motion video without any additional hardware
	     required, an all-new trail of sophisticated, psychological
		terror, and more diverse games, puzzles and quests on
		three CDs in an intricate and elegantly designed folio,
		The 11th Hour: The sequel to The 7th Guest(tm) bests
			any interactive game on the market.

			It should.
		It's the successor to the most successful and acclaimed
			PC CD-ROM game ever made.

The 11th Hour:
   The sequel to The 7th Guest

			Coming this summer for PC CD-ROM,
			Mac CD-ROM and the 3DO system.

----END OF AD---

So, more conflicting reports. This ad claims 3 things different from
what my other sources have said:L
   1) No additional hardware for full video.
   2) This ad claims 3 CD-ROMs.
   3) "Coming this Summer" I wish. Doubtful.

Enjoy. Jered.
