Freedom Fighters IS as good I as hoped - scoring a sweet 92%
YUMMY.

Soul Calibur II - 94%
Colin McRae 04 (a month early!) 93%
Amplitude - 91%
Conflict: Desert Storm 2 - 87% (more w00tage)
R-Type Final - 89% (excessive w00tage)
Xenosage Episode 1 - 83%
XGRA got 69% which is dissapointing.
As is Juge Dredd vs. Death - 79% (not too bad)
As is Splashdown 2 - 71%
Other include:
Tiger Woods PGA tour ‘04 - 83% (nothing’s changed, apprently)
Madden 2004 - 69%

And a load of crappy racers.
OTHER STUFF:
Pro Evo 3 feature - although nothing already discussed in this forum’s topic.
Sony report 98% drop in profits. Woah!
But I don’t really care.
Take that Sony!
Stuff about Manhunt.
Lara leaves Core. *Shock*
PREVIEWS:
Prince of Persia. Now PS2 exclusive.
*Drools*
I love you, princey.
New James Bond. 3rd not 1st perspective.
The Suffering. Might be okay.
Crash Nitro Kart. I’d rather have Mario.
Backyard Wrestling. Looks painful.
Fifa 2004. Don’t care.
Rise To Honour. Kung-fo game that actually might be good.
*END*

Most news in mags is old news. Web sites can update every day - a mag is every month, and a general round-up of the month's big stories.
Yes, Xenosaga import review.
As for Madden they seem to like it quite a lot. It's probably the old "not much has changed" quibble you get from yearly updates. And the fact that the game doesn't really appeal to very many people.
Lara - not bothered. I went off her after TR2. She can't keep up with the competition.
Bring on Fear Effect!
ALSO:
It says that Eidos have no plans to release R-Type Final over here.
Boo!
Stupid people.

That import review? Guessing it is.

Woah what the hell happened here? Is it just because the reviewer doesn't like american football so knocked about 20% off the review score or has something drastically gone wrong with it over the year? These usually score in at least the 80's each year
> Lara leaves Core. *Shock*
Good she's the reason Fear Effect: Inferno has been postponed right now. Hope she never comes back

Some news, like the drop in Sony profits, is really old news.
