GRIN has been developing BANDITS behind closed doors for over a year and now that we stand finished we are more then thrilled with the result. It turned out great, using the GRIN 3D engine it includes more action and special effects than you can shake a stick at!. PAN Vision plan to release the action game BANDITS in October 2002.
