I totally agree it was dull, boring and hard!

I have to disagree with you Mr Thug, because Battle Engine Aquila is boring.

Who found Sal the Alien on MX Superflies Freestyle arena?

I think that too, it is really slow, and the targeting system is poor, its almost impossible to hit anything. The sound is pathetic. Im sorry but this game stinks.

I would have given it 6/10 at the very most.

The other game on the demo 'Battle Engine, Aquilla' is a hell of a lot more fun and I had never heard of it before I got the demo.

Well the TIF games (Made by the same people) always had worse demo's than the final game (Gameplay and graphics wise). Thats mainly because the demo's are made months before the magazine is even released.

Point was though, how do we know the demo that was available isnt an age old?

But it matters little i suppose now, if the problems are fixed.
