number 9 dream…

Here at Rodent Towers (which is the person who is writing this’s house), current temptations include… Pro Evolution Soccer 3, Viewtiful Joe, PC Halo, and XIII. So, we are, of course, currently rediscovering the joy of the Dreamcast.

There has been much Virtua Tennis, a lot of Border Down, several sweary trundles through Crazy Taxi 2, a desperate rummage through second-hand shops for overpriced, fag-smelling copies of Rez and Ikaruga…

The coming months will bring such pleasures as Mario Kart: Double Dash, SSX3, Project Gotham 2, Pikmin 2, Gradius V, Chronic The Drugwasp XI… But we mostly crave a nice copy of Alien Front Online so we can watch the White House blow up through a spiky-sharp VGA box.

We ain’t being wilfully retro. We just love great games. And punch us in the hearts if the Dreamcast still doesn’t play great game.

You. Ebay. Now.

“You lyin’ get…”

Scrub up yer works and jack in this week’s dose of original videogaming spirit…*

Sweet dreams are made of this. Not literally, of course.

Another one done. Wrap up warm, my pretties.

Next week – stay close to the ‘phone. GGR needs YOU!

REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT LEGAL NOTICE - A RETRACTION
Within Way of the Rodent #8 it was stated that George Lucas is a cunt. We would like to apologise unreservedly for calling George Lucas a cunt, a total cunt, and the king of cuntishness. We now accept that none of these statements are true. Plainly George Lucas does not resemble a cunt, no matter how much you squint. Sorry.
