First, we will not speak of Him, but He is indeed
here, again. Your letters and pleas have been devoured and regurgitated
in the usual lucid fashion. Read with calm.
Next, hearty high-fives and frankly vulgar whooping
sounds in the direction of PaulEMoz, for the second instalment
(sorry – installment) of his cross-cultural – if you
insist – ‘American Odyssey’. This week –
games and grog.
Third, sultry little reviews of Metal Arms and
Psyvariar 2 from Korruptor and Sickboy. The former all robot-explodey
clanking joyousness, the latter a fierce and beautiful shooter
lurking amid a jabbering morass of hilarious story-gunk.
Finally, Ely takes up
the satire stick and beats everyone about the face and
neck with a little ditty he calls ‘Call Centre Sim’.
Hope you like his new direction.

Indeed.
Once again – great big barrels of thanks
to the shadowy figure who now hosts us. Think of him as more of
an enigmatic, Roman Abramovich-style benefactor, less a thumb-removing
loan shark. Er, we hope.
And ta very much for sticking with us during
the recent upheavals and downtimes and that. It won’t happen
again. If it does, the publisher has promised to wear a big flowery
dress.
Now, get back to work.
Next Week: Retrovision
IV preview, Deus Ex 2, one-off gaming heroisms, and how the bonus
can sometimes be even better than the proper thing. Do not miss
it. Kun-Tor knows where you live.
