Juiced - Sucks so much ass, Burnout 3 pi$$es on it from great heights. Quite nice graphics but the handling's terrible and it all just feels really pedestrian. 2/10
Blinx 2 - Suprisingly enjoyable, wouldn't pay full price for it but it'd be a nice buy when it goes budget me thinks. Excellent graphics, pretty decent level design and the slow motion time thingy's very cool when you hoover all the bullets out of the air. One crap thing though are the characters, the enemies are okay but the team of cats that follow you around are crap. 6/10
Colin Mcrae 2005 - BORING with a capital BOR! It's exactly the same as all the other games, just with supposed online play which I can't see working because not even Rallisport 2 could pull that off and that was infinetly better. 1/10
Second Sight - I liked, though I could see that it would get a bit dull after a while once the excitement off throwing people through windows and smashing their skulls against walls wears off. Still, definetly one I'll most likely pick up once it comes down in price as there's no way in hell I'd pay full price for a game that's supposedly very short. 7/10
Music Maker - What's the point in this? why would I want to remix some really crap music with the limited selection of shoddy beats available and then do nothing with it. Complete waste of space, about as enjoyable as having your nuts trampled on by the Russian womens volleyball team. -9/10
Overall then a totally rubbish disc that really wasn't helped by the fact that the magazine sucked so badly. Next weeks disc looks a lot better though so I'll most likely purchase it and throw the magazine away.

Whats on the next disc?
It's pretty poor.
Anyway, next months disc has...
Outrun 2
Conflict Vietnam
Silent Hill 4
Men of Valor
Kingdom Under Fire
Leisure Suit Larry
Def Jam Fight for NY
I'd have got the disc for Men of Valor alone, the other games are just big bonuses.
> Is Def Jam online??
Nope they took out the online play.
