"New NGC"

Picked it up this afternoon.

Starfox getting a low 70's mark along with Street racing syndicate.

DS release games reviewed. Mario 64, Wario ware, Project rub, Zoo keeper and Polarium coming out trumps. Rayman, Asphalt and Sprung getting no more than 2 out of five. Then Spider-man and Mr Driller somewhere in the middle. Also a nice bunch of previews.

NGC provide a nice Pictochat animation masterclass so you can create your own 30 frame 'flickbook'.

All the other Cube reviews I cant remember but 'Neighbours from hell' got 12/100.
Go buy it kids!

DS tips books on the cover and Resi half walk-through.

The online play shall rule muchly.

The story levels are just a minor part of Timesplitters game, so even if they were utter cack it really wouldn't matter.

Gotta say though other than the opening level in the future, the levels I've seen looked really cool. Especially that Zombie castle level where you fight some undead moose thing, oh and that blatant hint at Goldeneye level set on the train.

Can't wait for this game! should be fun online too. If only to play as a ninja monkey and whoop fat Americans as they run around wondering where the jump button is.

what is ts2

My faith is restored. Gives me something to play post-Resi, although I can see myself playing through that again straightaway.

That was just rubbish.
Who'd want to play as one of several thousand slightly-differently-shaded boring soldier types when you can be a dinosaur or a cardboard-box robot or snowman?

Idiots, that's who. And they don't even count.

The only other problem NGC had was that the opening story levels are pretty rubbish. Although the story overall is most excellent, which makes a change.

But it's all about the Arcade leagues / Challenges and multiplayer.

Well, seeing as I loved TS2, I'll love TS3 too then.

As long as there's not like 80 diffferent soldier characters to play as again.

That was their main problem with it - just how similar it was compared to TS2. I'm sure that if TS2 didn't exist, 3 would get well into the 90s.

88for TS3 is still good, they've probab;y compared it to TS2, and although it'll end up being better, because it's more of the same, they won't like it as much.

That's my theory, though I'll be happy with 88.

Yeh TS2 got 93 if I remember. ermm. Viewtiful joe 2 got in the high 80's aswell.

As for the flickbook.. create about 30 slides, changing a little bit in each (obviously) when your done take it to the top, hold the L button then the R button half a second later.
