When we began researching our Games That Changed The World feature we quickly realised that, inevitably, we would have to cut out some great stuff to make the article fit into four pages in the magazine. So, in order to bring you the full, unexpurgated version of events surrounding the extraordinary story of the development of Ultima Underworld, we have assembled this exclusive supplementary package - containing UNCUT interviews from three key members of the Ultima Underworld team. I'm sure you'll agree they are well worth reading. Paul Mallinson PLEASE NOTE: These interviews, which I conducted myself in February 2002, were originally published in PC Zone magazine - and also in full on the cover-mounted disc. Since I still had the files I thought I'd put them up here on mallo.co.uk.
