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.

Good to see EA getting the thrashing they deserve once again.

European Assault was never going to be anything more than mediocre.

Call of Duty: Big Red One, on the other hand, looks awesome, despite one of the world WW2 game names ever.

It sounds great, though one thing bothers me.

How do NGC know about it when no one else does? Literally nothing like this has ever even been speculated about :S

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.

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