Grrr.

I said I'd wait until March before buying any more games, but my policy has fallen apart.

Luigi's Mansion
SuperMario Sunshine
Rogue Leader
Clone Wars
Jedi Knight II
Wave race
Smash Bros
ISS2
Burnout
Mario Party 4
Eternal Darkness
Timesplitters 2
Turok Evolution
Reign of Fire
Pikmin
Super Monkey Ball

All the games I had before Christmas

Now I've just bought:

Cel Damage
Extreme G3

both from eBay for a pittance. And now Bomberman, Crazy Taxi, Magical Mirror and Fifa 2003 are all being watched in respective auctions.

If this carries on, I'll have to sell my Gamecube to stop myself buying games for it.

I disagree heavily with that... read their very very very crap Starfox and Zelda reviews, they haven't even played all the game (they say so in the Zelda one) they only use one or two examples and they never explain anything fully... VERY POOR.

NGC is a far better magazine, it may have a few problems with loving certain franchises but their reviews are thorough and they are very funny.

NOM and G-force are very pants.

They also make sure they play through the whole game before reviewing it.

They're unofficial so they get the games much before NOM and all the other Monkey magazines.
