Uncharted is the cover story, but not much new information is given - pretty much a rehash of what we've already heard a number of times. I haven't been following the screen-shots that close, but there are a few shots in the mag that I have never seen before. Elena on the back of the jet ski that Nate is driving - with a grenade launcher!

Sucks about Uncharted story. Was hoping for something new. Still the Jetski sounds interesting. By the way Wild Arms 5 is on PS2 not PSP.

Christ Slate back confirmed.

Nope - still that bum Rob.

He addresses the shitty reviews last month (Lair - 5.5, Warhawk - 6.5)...and by address I mean he pretty much confirms that they stick by their scores. When talking about the Warhawk he said, "We called it how we saw it, we'll continue to play it online, and hope the balance improves as the servers become populated."

 

[jmd494]

Does anyone know if Dracula X has lots of exploration and leveling up (like SotN)? Or is it more of a standard action sidescroller?

Yeah, I'm hoping the servers get populated too

Spoiler

I'm waiting for spot on a ranked server to open up as we speak

[MrDaravon]

Final Fantasy Tactics for the win bitches!

 

[OokieSpookie]

Rumors or anything interesting?

 

[Dark Octave]

Did they change the main girl's face in Uncharted? She looks different on that cover. She went from looking like that chick from the first Jurassic Park to Nicole Kidman.

please support Soul Nomad too

 

[MrDaravon]

please support Soul Nomad too

Yeah we already ordered that and the guide, only because of the apparently small runs of both. Was planning to get them later instead, but oh well.

So basically Heavenly Sword is as good as Stuntman Ignition.

Spoiler

[Defuser]

For once I agree with PSM scores

 

[probune]

I remember reading one issue of PSM and every single game got an 8.5

Or GRAW2 or Tiger Woods 08 or Madden 08.

 

[Drinky Crow]

how the fuck did wild arms 5 get a LOWER score than the godawful dragoneer's aria

i'm not fathoming the hate for wa5

 

[Kyoufu]

Same here, atleast on most of that stuff.

 

[Manmademan]

It's classic castlevania, like 1, 3, and IV. It is NOT a Metroidvania.

SOTN is included with it, if that's what you're into.
