Good score for Kid Icarus.

I was agreeing with the American Nightmare review until they said that the arcade mode was better than the story mode :fp:

The action is so immediate and seductive that the lack of multiplayer doesn’t feel like an outrage

Yeah... No. Horde Modes don't work without tactical teamwork. I've played the arcade mode once, and that's enough for me. It's not even a decent horde mode.

They are complaining about the lack of multiplayer in an Alan Wake game?

No actually they aren't. Frank is and saying EDGE are wrong for saying its not needed.

What Hugo said. They say the arcade mode is great (and better than the story mode). It's not. If you're going to tack a crappy horde mode (the only good thing about this incessant craze of sticking horde modes into absolutely everything is that every game that has one then has a co-op mode, albeit a crap one) onto your game, do it properly (multiplayer) or don't do it at all.

Another uninteresting is covering games that no one gives a gooseberry fool about.

Care to try that one again?

I care about Borderlands 2.

The covers have been so gooseberry fool since the revamp.

Am I the only one that thinks its a bit stange that the likes of Motorstorm RC and Last Story didn't get a spot in the actual magazine?

I assume SF X Tekken just missed the deadline, but the others have been up for a while.

Last Story was reviewed in the mag on its Japanese release.

Ah that makes sense of that one then, still think Motorstorm should be in the print magazine, suppose it might be in next months issue though.

I wish I wasn't so lazy,or I would have cancelled my subscription ages ago. I cant honestly say when the last time I actually enjoyed the magazine.

Me too I let it run out. A games magazine with virtually no reviews and boring insipid articles.

The redesign need urgent redesign.
