HELL YEAH! Hogs of War rocked! It had a lot more humour aswell!

I'd love to see a next-gen update on the Cube/Xbox - would'nt you agree?

*cries*

I wanna play Hogs of War now :'(

If so, Team17 never advertised it on their own website.

Didn't the PS1 have a really pants 3D worms?

Anyway did anyone ever play Hogs of War on the PS1, damn good Worms clone and miles better with the added voice overs from Rick Mayall.

Worms 3D certainly looks the part, but in full 3D? How can you judge missile trajectories?

38% for DX... now thats a bit harsh...

3 rating for Billy Hatcher?

And glad worms 3D is going along as I'd hoped.

That game will be the biggest game of the year...

Goes off humming worms tune.

Good & Evil getting good mark.

Excellent....

I hope the next BH: GE preview shows an improvement in NGC marking rates.

Yup.

Ho-hum.

Why no score for SSX3?

They didn't like Sonic, then?

Bill Hatcher And The Giant Egg - 3

WAHHHH *rubs eyes* nooo

Did anyone else get the splinter cell demo this month?It's quite good because you get a lot of weapons and gadgets unlike most demo's when they give you one type of gun with 10 bullets.
