"New NGC"

This issue is a bit of a let down, very few proper games reviews. And i expected a little bit more info on Killer 7 and Resi 4. And for the last few issues they've spent too much space on the DS, when they could be reviewing more games. And what with them reducing the size of the mag, i am little dissapointed. But it should start to pick up soon with some of the new games coming out...

I'm not too dissapointed with this month's magazine in any other section other than that of the Reviews. Since I rarely look-up all the latest News on-line, all I read in NGC comes along as pretty "new" to me, you see.

I also like the Metroid Timeline towards the end of the mag. Not only do you get to see how it all runs together, but you also see the difference between Zero Mission and the very original in the series; how the new "rehash" has been developed well-enough to help give Metroid more of the kind of story that really keeps us hooked on all the latest Zelda games.


But, why, again, do they give-away a free Guide to the latest 'big-release'; Final Fantasy? Surely, that just gives people the chance of spoiling the whole idea of the adventure, again?

Lordy, I was half-intrested in Pokémon Channel as well. Have NGC reviewed Beyond Good and Evil yet?

The reader awards section is good. Scores:

Tak and the power of the Juju: 69%
Pool Paradise: 80%
Goblin Commander: 72%
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: 40%
Pitfall GC: 48%
Pokemon Channel: 24%
Carmen Sandiego: 70%
Disney Hide & Sneak: 25%
Metroid Zero Mission: 89%
Sabre Wulf: 85%
Shining Soul 2: 84%
Disney Magical Quest 3: 82%
Sonic Battle: 78%
Sonic Pinball: 76%

...and a few others i cant be bothered to copy out. Conclusion, there were not many good games out to review.

Yeah they've reduced the width by about an Inch... and they still have the same number of pages as the last issue. AND they still havent sent me my prize!

It's a bit of a slow issue.
Nothing interesting to report, no good reviews either.

Reducing the size of the mag? You mean when they made the page sizes smaller or have they cut the number of pages now?

Anyone got the review scores?
