Did they reference talking to the monsters in their Doom review?

(Still can't believe Doom 1 only got a 7/10!)

 

[Majmun]

That's very high for Dangerous Golf...

Have they fixed the loading times?

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

How in the world did Dangerous golf get a 7 from Them? Just looking at the scores and their use of the scale that seems crazy to me.

Yeah, they actually did.

It seems that it got 7 despite of the loading rimes, choppy framerate and dodgy camera.

 

[Savantcore]

The cover is great

There's this conspiracy thinking that EDGE is always biased towards UK-developed products (not sure if that's still true but I remember people getting into that back in the day )

Features look very interesting. Only reason I still read EDGE. Don't care about the reviews anymore

 

[xrnzaaas]

Wow that's a really cool cover. A bold move, normally a magazine publisher wouldn't green lit something like that because it would be too misleading for less attached or potentially new readers.

 

[Disxo]

Cool cover!

 

[SJRB]

The cover is great

Holy shit, so awesome.

Ubi is on-point with their Watchdogs stuff so far.

 

[jimboton]

Wonder what they said about Lumo.

 

[SJRB]

Good lord at those TMNT and Homefront scores, by the way. Ruthless.

 

[Boy Wander]

Wonder what they said about Lumo.

Basically if you're a thirty five plus year old Brit, it will pull at your nostalgia string big time.

"At a time when retro throwbacks almost exclusively pastiche classics from Japan and the US, it's delightful to play a game that embraces the UK's contribution to the industry. While we fully concede that Lumos universe of screechy loading screens and manic miner nods might mean more to us than most, surely anyone with a taste for adventure will appreciate such an intricate and secret stuffed world"

 

[ODDI]

Holy shit, so awesome.

Ubi is on-point with their Watchdogs stuff so far.

Agreed the Ded Sec stuff was one of the best things in the first game, excited that they are expanding on it.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Good cover, pity I cancelled my subs recently.

 

[professor denim]

Lol The Turtles score

I'm the complete opposite! Of this:

Watch Dogs 2 - In depth 8 page spread
Prepare To Die - how a small team of board game designers turned Dark Souls into a kickstarter smash.
An Audience with - Patrice Desilets creator of PoP Sands of Time and Assassins Creed
Studio Profile - Future Games of London
Time Extend - Puzzles and Dragons
Making Of - Fire watch

Only their regular features (Studio Profile, Time Extend, Making Of) appeal to me at all. The rest is too much AAA of the month that I end up skipping when I read the issue 3 weeks down the line (the game in question is usually out by then anyway).

I would love to see more timeless features - retrospectives and the lot. But their reviews are consistently among the best in the business. Not many places you can go these days for a review that is actually well-written and free of cliches.

 

[Ridley327]

Lol The Turtles score

Couldn't even get a point for each turtle in the game.

 

[Visualante2]

Stunning cover, big step up on the previous Watch_dogs one. Next month on sale July 21. I'm guessing the teaser is Zelda. It's two golden shades split diagonally. If anyone has some requests for more I'll be browsing it this evening.

Good cover, pity I cancelled my subs recently.

I've been toying with the idea. I'm on £20 every 6 months sub so it's not too much. Every time they have a few disappointing issues they come back with something great and put me off.

Thanks! I'm not a brit but it's right up my alley anyway. I was just wondering what kept it from an 8 or a 9.

 

[Curufinwe]

7 for TMS is encouraging. I forgot it's out in a week.

That's very high for Dangerous Golf...

Have they fixed the loading times?

Have a cup of tea and a crumpet while the game loads.

 

[silva1991]

I didn't even know Shadow of The Beast came out.

.

it took me forever to realized this is the Fire Emblem x SMT game

a 7/10 game is about what I expected.

 

[InquisitorAles]

Glad to see Doom got 9, this game absolutely deserved it

 

[Shawn6661]

Doom - 9

Steam sales cant come soon enough !

 

[N° 2048]

I used to have tons of game magazines as a kid. It was awesome.

I remember Next Generation standing out, too. Is that related to Edge in any way? I basically haven't bought a game magazine since... maybe 2000.
