Why have I got two magazines....ah well I am not complaining, they both seem quite reasonable. I think though that the magazines @ SR should be more consumer interactive. I think they should post some good reviews on there. They could have one or two people write a column or anything. They could even charge £10 a year and send out a Magazine a month.
I was just looking through it and all they have is those reviews on the back which never says anything bad about the games. Battle For Naboo, in my book looks/sounds nowhere near as good as SW: Starfighter or even Rogue Squadron. The graphics might be a bit better but that is it. And yet they still say it will take the Star Wars crown. I am all for praising Nintendo etc, but Starfighter looks sooooo much better. We need more of a Magazine and less of a brochure!
Okay so not all the customers are on-line but hey...you can include prices as well. I think SR should have a think about the future of the magazine because it could be big...but not if it stays like this!

PS: I noticed that the N64 section was a little sketchy, there were no release dates or anything! Is Hey You, Pikachu out..is BB 2000 out...hmmmm....?

Yeah, Sort 'em out or we'll be sorting you out! Right Sniper?!....Sniper?....Er....Oops!
The dates are scattered in so many pages, why don't you sort them into formats!
Well then complain! 'cause they shouldn't be.
But the dates online are misleading.....
No plans for Special Reserve mag to take on street publications, it's still primarily a catalogue. Must keep the membership fee as low as possible.
I'll make sure release dates for N64 are included next time. You can find this information online as soon as it is available.
