Not a good month for reviews in that issue!

Tell us how Musashi is! Whoever gets the disc. And uh, YS I guess.

People who bought the previous mags for the Socom 2 maps...owned

MIDWAY RULES YOUR ASSES

 

[Drinky Crow]

What are the complaints with Shining Tears?

 

[Lord Error]

Hmmm, I was hoping for more from Area 51, but that's just one review.

Can someone tell me if the Sega Classics game is the one that has Virtua Racing in it?

 

[The End]

That demo disc looks sweeeet.

What's funny is that the first OPM with a map (the GTA cover),was selling for like $40 on Ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8167077893&rd=1

And for all 3, someone paid $73

Holy crap are people retarded.

Bomb Breaker.

Why the hell isn't there a God of War demo in this issue?

Sony is shipping it to every Playstation Underground member already.

And it's unbelievable.

 

[Jumpman Jr.]

Sega Classics 2

Man, where is the love? What is wrong with it?

Sony is shipping it to every Playstation Underground member already.

Except people like me and Defensor, last I checked.

 

[Azrael]

SEGA Classics is just more proof that SEGA is retarded. They should have done a collection of faithful emulations/ports of their classic games. Instead we get a bunch of outsourced remakes made with tiny budgets that are actually inferior to the originals. Give me the original Golden Axe, or give me a new Golden Axe sequel that does the franchise justice. Don't give me these shovelware low-budget remakes.

WTF? I haven't gotten mine!!!!

*shakes fence in general direction of SCEA

 

[levious]

someone explain the socom maps on demo disks to me. I thought they were for use online only... so what's the big draw about getting from a magazine rather than downloading them yourself? Or is it only availible through the demo disks?

The braniacs at Zipper didn't design the game to download the maps over the internet. So, the demo disks write them to the hard drive right where SOCOM 2 checks.

 

[Link316]

so NBA Street V2 is better than V3? I've been undecided on whether to buy V3 cause there's no Jordan

 

[Minotauro]

Except people like me and Defensor, last I checked.

I didn't get one either. What I did get, though, was an email with a link to a 12 page survey to take. Sony loves me.

So there was no one bitching that you had to pay 10 bucks per map at the time?

Sony hates us :-(

Question - is this mag out in stores. i just stopped by one and all they had was the Feb 2005 issue....I really wanna check out the Area 51 demo.

 

[BuckRobotron]

What a disappointing batch of action game scores. Combined with earlier p/reviews Nanobreaker, Death by Degrees, the latest Tenchu all are being penned in for $10-$15 future curiosity buys now, if that.

Area 51 though continues to sound promising, played great on the OXM disc.

 

[radios shipping overview]

A demo of S.L.A.I., an online sequel to Phantom Crash, is on the disc, too. Anybody play it? I wrote my thoughts up here:
