Has anyone tried typing in the code at the back of the last 3 magazines? Have they got a side scrolling shoot 'em up working yet?

I only have this months Deus Ex issue with the collision detection part in it, so I can't try out the code :-(

If it's not too long, could someone post the code from the previous 2 issues so I can catch up! =)

If it's too long, don't worry, but please tell me what the game is like as you build it!!!!

It looks like a great game in the making.

yeah i got the special edition magazine two days ago...
and it is REALLY useful for people like me...who are new to the world of playstation 2....
gives you a run down of all the games....which is quite useful.
the interviews with the games makers are also informative...it sort of let's you know what is happening in their heads.....
i recommend it to people like me....

I had a feeling it might be :(
Thanks anyway!
Yeah, tell me what the game looks like once entered!! I'll be collecting the code from now on, but it is annoying that they aren't allowing for the people who have just started buying their magazine.

If anyone else feels like spending an evening typing it in here, feel free!!!! I would be grateful!

The code is massive, but when I have some time I'll input it in and report back.
