Review (PC) |
December
22, 2000 |
 Long
ago, the ancestors of today's
modern sheep were
sent out across the galaxy from the star system of Ovis Aries, and a
few of these explorers landed on Earth. Their mission was to pose as
peaceful observers but they got lazy and were domesticated and lost
track of their goals. It's up to you to redeem this mighty race
in this puzzler from Empire Interactive. Lead
on... |

No Mercy Review (N64) |
December 20, 2000 |

wrestler and try to break the system. Click

cornucopia of extreme sports titles actually brings freestyle BMX to the GBC in a pretty
cool way. TJ Lavin's Ultimate BMX is kind of

| ESPN National Hockey Tonight Screens |
 Our pal,
Steven, kicked us down some screens from ESPN National Hockey Night, and they
look great. The graphics are super flashy and the gameplay is supposed to be deep and
sprinkled with ESPN flavor. And as a special bonus, we've got a bunch of ESPN Winter X Games Snowboarding screens,
too. This game is amazingly beautiful, and just the ticket for hardcore riders who aren't
satisfied with the cutesy fireworks of SSX. |

 If you smell
what the Rock is cookin', then WWF Smackdown 2:
Know Your Role is the only wrestling game you need. THQ is at it again, and they've
really done an amazing job with the latest WWF title. The graphics are great, the gameplay
is boneshattering, and the authenticity oozes from the game. Click here. |
| Starship Troopers Review (PC) |
 Van gives us his
take on Hasbro's Starship Troopers (it's
got more in common with the movie than the book). It's also got plenty of fast action and
stellar graphics, along with a few control problems and a bit of an identity crisis. Check
it out, and see if you're cut out for a role in the Mobile Infantry. |

| Sonic Shuffle Review (DC) |
 It's
either the life of the party or the death of it -- Sonic Shuffle is just that kind of
game. Although they do everything right, the Shuffle is plagued by an incredibly slow pace
that will have most party-goers reaching for their coats. However, it could be just the
thing for those "spin da night" gamefests the young'uns are so fond of. Click here; decide for yourself. |
