Starfox Date Shuffle
By Andy on Friday, June 21, 2002
Looks like Nintendo have moved the release dates around for Starfox Adventures, it's been delayed by a day in the USA to October 1st and in Japan it's been bumped up to September 27th, a few days before the US release. Lets hope these won't also be the dates Rare announce what we've all feared...

F-Zero Screenshot
By Andy on Thursday, June 20, 2002
Here's the first in-game (I hope) screenshot of F-Zero for Gamecube, it looks alot better than I expected! Hopefully Amusement Vision will make some crazy courses and extremely fast car speed, surely there'll be a secret 'play as monkey-in-ball' cheat too. Thanks to GC-Inside for the scan.

Lack Of Updates
By Andy on Friday, June 14, 2002
The reason there arn't many updates this week is I don't really want to turn into the average IGN copy-and-paste fansite, big news like the stuff IGN reports most readers would have seen allready before reading the site so I don't report it. Would you rather I only update when I have content or that I update every day just talking about stuff? E-mail here with your opinion.

By Andy on Wednesday, June 12, 2002

By Andy on Saturday, June 8, 2002

It Never Rains...
By Andy on Monday, June 3, 2002
