That looks a bit like Libby from Neighbours in that Sony Bukkake game.

Yeah. Games Tm gave it an 8 or 9 as well.

I believe so.

Anyway I picked this up in town today and my first reaction was :shock:

My goodness it's a behemoth of a magazine, nearly 200 pages. I felt kind of guilty only paying £4.50 for it, I would gladly pay up to about £7 for something this chunky, this issue in particular I wouldn't have felt hard done by at £10 even because there's a lot in it that appeals to me.
I went straight for the Pikmin, Time Extended feature, it was a cracking read and focussed on a side of the game that I'ld never really considered before.
Theres also a good read on City Folk which I'm perusing now, I had no idea the game was born out of Eguchi being lonely in a new town when he first game to work for Nintendo.

You'd be mistaken for thinking that Edge were going to give SFIV a 10. The reviewer sounds as if he was pleasuring himself while writing the review.

It's only so bulky this month because they included all of their Get Into Games material inside the actual mag rather than having an accompanying booklet like previous years.

They said it required a lot of skill but that the enviroment (in terms of destructability and things like that) was poorly defined.

Nintendo fell out of love with hardcore gamers is a good read.

In the sense that the slightly tabloid headline hardly sums up the tone of the piece, yep, it is.

Who can spot the MASSIVE subbing error in one of the articles on the cover? It has to be seen to be believed.

There might be an obvious answer to this, but is there any reason why certain magazines don't print the name of the guy/doll who wrote the piece?

There's a review with an errant 'm', and I spotted one other somewhere, but nothing massive as far as I recall. Must be one I skipped.

(Which article?)

They want to be seen as a "hive mind" with one voice. They're not, of course, and many contributors to such mags think it's a silly policy.

Anonymity is a powerful thing. It's just that some prefer the authority of the 'hive mind' mentality.

The "Nintendont" one.

Hmmm
I don't really like the anonymity.

Bit good, innit? It's so blatant that everyone's missing it! If you see what I mean...

Could you point it out for those of us who can't see it?

Tell you what, everyone have a look for it in the article, and before the end of the evening I'll post what it is if you haven't got it. You'll be kicking yourselves. Revealing it to everyone now will remove the amusement, much like being told what to do in the Braid Cloud Bridge puzzle without figuring it out yourself was nowhere near as cool.

Alright, but it'd better not just be a misplaced apostrophe!

No, it's big. Look for something more substantial than just spelling something wrong in the ordinary body text.
