Yep, NGC have gone and brought their magazine out right after E3, but don't have any DS shots, any new shots on the new Zelda, although there is a section on it, and nothing else out of the ordinary. On the other hand, however, this hopefully means that next issue will come equipped with a DVD so we can watch all the new titles in action on our big screens.

The Review Scores of this issue are as follows:

Phantasy Star Online 3 - 82%
World Racing - 19%
Serious Sam: Next Encounter - 83%
Samurai Jack - 50%
Bokta - 86%
Donkey Kong Country 2 - 81%

And a couple of other GBA titles/film ripoffs which couldn't produce anything above 65%.

We won't get a DVD, we will get an inflatable pokemon box.

True, the net is easy and cheap, but NGC have a brilliant style, make it all compact and useful, and hopefully a DVD will pop up too.

I'm afraid it still is shoddy Bath workmansip, as all people that don't check out games online on a regular basis will want to know about the new Zelda, and the DS ASAP, and would probably be enticed to buying the mag on impulse. Oh well - lets just hope and keep our fingers crossed for a DVD, that'd rock.

NGC may have got some ace exclusives and spoke to certain developers.

Plus they take the p!$$ out of the fact Pacman was the major announcement of last year.

NGC was probably written a week or so ago. They have subscription promises to meet...

They do this every year... the mag comes on or just before the E3 event... then in June we get a massive mag filled to the brim with details.

It's like getting all excited again.

Muh. Tards.
How about just pushing the date back a week or so, then have a nice summary of events and all the details down in one place? Rather than these 'ooohhh! this might happen' predictions, which already haven't.

It's a rather soggy issue, on most accounts.

That World Racing looks truly awful.

It was quite funny, my younger brother was in a big strop yesterday and this morning becasue his copy of Pokemon Colosseum didn't arrive on Friday or this morning, and now won't arrive until next week, but what free gift came in with the magazine this issue? A guide for Pokemon Colosseum.

Naturally, it didn't improve his bad mood.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Many thanks!!
Registered my website with Freeola Sites on Tuesday. Now have full and comprehensive Google coverage for my site. Great stuff!!
