Not a wide selection, nor many good games. Oh well, what can we expect so soon after GameCube's launch?...

Any idea what game(s) were featured on the demo disc...

Still, I doubt Nintendo themselves would do demo discs... just doesn't seem like their style. But fingers crossed for some third party demos...

A company in Japan has released Gamecube demo disks so fingers crossed me may get them over here.

They're always like that, I think any answer counts.

Mario comes out in Japan very soon.
They'll ne reveiwing the Japanese version.

What I'd like to know is if NGC will ever be able to do proper demo disks.

The free gift is another DVD, but this time with E3 footage of Zelda and Mario and Metroid.

I don't understand how they will review Mario next issue. It doesn't come out for ages.

Also, how stupid is the Lex Luthor puzzle. Reminds me of Lex saying in the Superman game "solve my maze", and then making you fly through a series of rings in a line for 5 minutes.

Wait a minute, I see a connection...

All magazines seem to contridict themselves, NGC have been looking forward to Wrestlemania for ages and they give it a score like that!!! What is the free gift??? :)

This seriously contradicts the resuilts given by CUBE magazine. Aarghh! Who to believe???

Wrestlemania X8 is a real disappointment - I thought this could have been the best wrestling game in ages! I may go for Smackdown Shut Your Mouth now, presuming it is better of course!
Another disappointment is Attack of the Clones - When are they going to release a decent Star Wars game for the GBA?
