Subscriber copies have arrived......

[ezee ryder]

and....?

[EvilBoris]

I'm guessing he cancelled his subscription

[importaku]

Or a "look at me i have gamestm" post heehee, seems a bit odd to start it without listing the scores.

Or was there nothing in this month issue just a front cover & a back cover

I thought maybe he was opening the thread to ensure no one beat him while he was typing. But here it is, since he's gone offline:

Cover is a gimmicky origami design for Heavy Rain.

Might get for the Grim Fandango article - love that game. Hope Lucasarts re-release.

Shame about Cursed mountain but the ingame shots got a bit of a 'meh' response from me.

The Ju-on game looks fun but incredibly short lived. Love the scoring mechanism: it measures how much you jump or randomly flail around and penalises you.

[Daragon]

I'm sorry, but a 7 for Wolfenstein? As much as I love Raven Software, this game was pap of the highest order.

Isn't a GamesTM 7 like a 9 or something in the eyes of a fair less stringent publication or website?

[prinnysquad]

Not really. But they do have their odd quirky scores.

I totally 'get' the Trials score. I'd rate it higher, but I can see how some people would loathe it, or even be 'meh'd' by it past a certain point.

Does anybody know of an online source that has the feature from last month's GamesTM about what type of gamer you are?

I want to ask my friends what they think they are and I think it'd be interesting on here too!

[The Mole]

I guess i am really the only one who way majorly let down by Soul Calibur.

I believe this might be it.
