Came today, obviously. Here are the reviews!

Killer 7 - 84%
Batman Begins - 41%
MOH: European Assault - 62%

Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory DS - 3/5
Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones GBA - 4/5

The news is all stuff that we've all heard about before, thanks to the magic interweb. They don't seem to be too bothered about the whole no HDTV support for Revolution, although they say that it could be a mistake equal to no DVD player in cube. What is interesting is the news about a REmake on DS using the camera from Resi 4. Sounds pretty amazing, if you ask me, and just the sort of thing the DS needs.

The mag has a heavy Mario theme, with the new Mario games all together in an article with all the other previous Mario games. There's a nice retro feature, a complete walkthrough of Killer 7 (it's not even out yet ffs). On the review front, they said that K7 is good, but more of an experience than a real game, but an experience that everyone should have, nonetheless. Sounds good, anyway.

Oh well, that's another issue out of the way. The content really shows how little Nintendo news there is left to report these days, which saddens me.

Cos how many ppl in this country have HDTV? Hardly any. And not many kids are gonna have a HDTV in their rooms to play the games on either. Is big in Japan though, and becomming more popular in the states. I don't think it is too much of a concern for this generation though. Though it is good for publicity stuff.

Nintendo said there maybe a spaceworld. They haven't decided.

So yes it may happen but if it doesn't then they were hardly lying.

Spaceworld occurs at the end of August.

What have they said they could lie about? Spaceworld is just speculation, especially as one hasn't been held for years. All we know is stuff will be revealed before the end of the year.

Unless they were lying about that.

Which wouldn't surprise me.

We won't have to wait that long, I'm sure.
I was thinking more around August / September

Yup, and we are going to have to wait until the end of the year for Revolution details. Its really frustrating for me as I'm an Xbox fan, but the 360 is so hideously expensive. I'm gonna have to stick by my guns at the moment, but my mates will have a 360 this Xmas, and it might sway me, especailly Final Fantasy 11 Online.........

It is quiet time in the industry. Don't worry too much about it.

Just a shame Nintendo didn't deliver enough at E3 to keep us talking.

Iwata is just giving the same interview again and again.

With the revolution they've got my controller there that can change shape.
I didn't know it was possible, but supposedly so.

Well they say "It has come to our attention", so who knows. Still, it seems pretty solid, seeing as they explained some of the control mechanic, with the touch screen being used to direct Chris or Jill's swipes with the olde knife.

I'm excited.
