They still have that stupid DS watch thing, despite there not being any new real news, apart from possible Wireless Instant Messaging (chatting with people close enough to talk to - great)
There's a lovely thing about Resi 4 - they're the only UK Ninty magazine to have played it aparently.
Probably the best thing is their First Play of Second Sight: the new game from Free Radical. Looks very good, and the game reminds me of the engine of 'The Thing', along with that new game 'Psi Ops'. But it looks better than both of them.
Anyway - review scores:
Pokemon Colosseum - 84
- not as epic as they'd expected.
Mission Impossible Operation Surma - 69
Scooby Doo Mystery Mahem - 31
JAP Zelda Four Swords + - 92
JAP Custom Robo - 82
- lower score because it's all in katakana
There's also a little Harvest Moon guide, which would be quite useful if everyone who had got it hadn't already finished the first year.

Except that it's really nothing like Skies, and more like a series of battles forced through the thin end of the storyline-machine.
Apart from the fact they're both RPGs.

This is hwo I see it:
Skies + Pokemon = genius.
Wish they'd make proper freebies for a change, rather than pointless tip books or guides that just get chucked away.

As will Owen be, I think that this issue was decent, but still to thin. Oh well, at least it is easier to carry around.
