Magazine:
World Exclusive review of PS2 Crazy Taxi, info on Commandos 2 and other WW2 games, RE:CV and Devil May Cry

News about: Sega's Headhunter, Hidden & Dangerous 2, Escape from Monkey Island, Ecco the Dolphin, Ferrari 355 Challenge, Battle of the Planets.

One of the most interesting parts (for me anyway) is on page 47, where there's more news on Dropship; it is *not* an RTS game; instead it is "a melding of flight sim, strategy game and action. It's described as "one of PS2's most exciting and original" games. Can't wait! :-)

What do ya think there'll bring out.classic puzzle games-hope not

There's an interesting interview in OPS2M with the head of LucasArts. He says they will be revisiting some older games, and possibly bringing out sequels. It's about time they got their act together and get back to those classic adventures!

I'm sorry you mean to say PS2 will have a monkey island game, that'll be awesome, as I have had to miss out on these quality games of reacent because my PC is f***** up and would'nt play those games for s***.

lovl!

Laugh out very loud!

Mind you, this has got me thinking about other curry based games. How about

Red Dansaktion
Star Wars Saagfighter
Tikka Tag Tournament
Metal Panir Solid (with a Chaff starter)
Nan Turismo
MDK2 Kormageddon

and of course, The Takeaway.

Sky Odyssey has interested me from launch day.

Getting it at lunchtime to see what's what with it before I purchase this one.

I was talking abuot Kuri Kuri Mix - I assumed (wrongly it seems!) that "Super Bombay Mix" was a pun on the Kuri/curry angle. Sorry!

WM - Are you talking about Kuri Kuri Mix? Or does Super Bombad thingy have that control mechanism too?

Starfighter is in the current issue of PSM2. They give it 85 (very good score for them). The cover game is F1 2001. I'm hoping it's good. I know it's sacrilege, but I wasn't that keen on Geoff Crammond's GP3 - it seemed a little rushed. In fact I haven't truly enjoyed a F1 game since the Amiga!

:-) Like it!

I'm keeping an eye on that - looks interesting, as you control both characters at the same time, using the respective side of the pad!

They had the review in the last issue, not the current issue. PSM2 should follow soon.
