Has The Games tm Editor Gone Full Blown Insane?

[rmoxon]

So reading the new issue of Games tm I have noticed a few weird things to do with the writing, things that show a general lack of knowledge of videogames, for instance, the Aliens Vs Predator preview lists a history of games based on the franchise but leaves both the capcom beat em up and AVP2 on the PC out of the list despite probabaly being the two most fun games made about Aliens and Predators not liking each other very much....

Despite all that though one thing in the magazine left me even more dumbfounded, its in the retro section.... Acording to the feature on the nes version of Strider the makers of the game compare it to "Punch Out!! and Mario Kart Double Dash" on the back of the box...

Either capcom had a time machine or its a magazine printing mistake, to be honest though i'm at a loss how such a mistake could actualy make it through????

AVP2 was vastly superior to AVP1 in my opinion, which is why I'm a little annoyed about all the press saying that Rebellion are the makers of the great AVP games when in reality they had nothing to do with the finest entry in the series.

not a chance. AVP1 PC was magnificent. AVP2 was awful. AVP was genuinely scary and the multiplayer modes are the best fun i've ever had playing multiplayer.

People make mistakes? My most played Aliens game is Alien 3 on the Gameboy

They really should release it on the download services, enjoyed that game a lot. Isn't there some licensing limbo regarding it these days though?
