1995 ... THE YEAR ОЕ THE SYSTEM WAR!

As we wrap up this issue and another year it's time to start planning our editorial calendar for 1995. Unfortunately, that's easier said than done. Sure there will be a lot of new systems all vying for your attention and dollars, but as the past has shown, not everybody can and will survive. So who do we focus on? Now that the magazines are getting smaller in size we certainly don't want to waste time and pages on “пеуег to be' systems like the FM Towns or Marty.

Some of the choices are very obvious. As you have seen from the past issues, We are giving extensive coverage to the Japanese Saturn and PlayStation. These are going to be the systems to watch in 1995. Nintendo is going to be the wild

card. Their Ultra 64 is obviously coming but because of their . none of them

tight-lipped attitude all we hear are rumors .. y will wise up real quick and deliver

positive. Hopefully the some information to start getting people interested in their 5у5-

tem. Then there is their Virtual Boy. Last month's editorial explained my feeling about that system. Perhaps they will have something at the Winter CES that will change my opinion.

The future of the existing systems are a little easier to pre- dict. The 300 is just now starting to get some really good games. If they get the system price down under $300 and preferably under $250, the system could continue to do well. Otherwise, like we have seen in Japan when the Saturn and PlayStation were launched, the 300 sales stalled. The Neo*Geo CD, even at its sky-high price, will do well. It has a niche audi- ence and SNK has reasonable expectations as to how well the system will do. The CD-i is on shaky ground. While it does play movies, it really needs a hot licensed title to get sales moving. The 32X has an image problem. Either people expect too much

of it or the games aren't good enough to show off its true capa- bilities. The same goes for the Sega CD. While it is still selling, it does suffer from poor color, resolution and bad FMV games.

Perhaps if it successfully couples with the 32X, both system's

problems could be solved. The Jaguar is roaring but much of

the time it has laryngitis. A constant stream of good software would be the best medicine for its sore throat.

It will be interesting a year from now to see who actually sur- vived the system glut of 1995. One thing is for sure: The pie will be finely divided and it just won't be a Sega-Nintendo war anymore.

This is the section where you can open ир your mind and let the rest of elec- tronic gaming know what you have to say! If we like what you write, we'll put it inside the pages of this magazine and try to spell your name right. If we don't like it, chances are we'll wad it up and hurl (the paper, not us). Remember that anything you write and send to us can be used іп the mag, whether you like it or not. Remember that you have the right to remain silent and that anything you say could be used against you in a court of law. If you think we're going to answer every letter that comes to our mailbox, then you must be nuts...

SNK RESPONDS

This letter is being written to clarify a misconception about censorship of

NeoGeo home games іп North America; one title in particular, Samurai Shodown II.

SNK Corporation of America has a commitment to excellence and to our

customers. Our policy and promise to bring exact, arcade-quality games to

14 [л

your living room will not be compromised. However, we are also aware and con- cerned about the current con- troversy over the censorship of video games.

As a result, we provide a "Blood Code" option in Samurai Shodown Il for those players who want it. Players can obtain this code by calling our Customer Service Department at (310) 371-8555. We have also pro- vided this code to magazines for print. Future NeoGeo home titles will have "Blood Code" options where it is applicable. By providing these "Blood Codes" the con- sumer can decide which ver- Sion to play.

We at SNK Corporation of America appreciate the sup- port of our loyal fans and your publication. We wel- come any comments you or your readers may have.

straight. In these days of "political correctness" it's good to see a company whose primary concern is still their customers' satis- faction. Many of the letters we have received about Samurai Shodown were from concerned Neo«Geo fans and owners wondering if the home version of Samurai Shodown II will

indeed be the same product as the game in the arcades. By giving people the option to use the "Blood Code," SNK of America has posi- tioned themselves in a place of high regard in the video gaming industry. We hope that other game com- panies follow the lead!)

(Ed. You should be okay, as long as you don't pause the game and walk away for hours and hours. The phe- nomenon that you're talking about is known as burn-in. This can occur on just about anything from computer mon- itors to televisions. It hap- pens when a stagnant image is left on screen for a long time, and an afterimage is left permanently burned-in on the screen. It's like looking at the sun for a couple of sec- onds [not a good idea], and seeing the image of the sun even after you look away. Just to be safe, we recom- mend that you call the manu- facturer of your projection TV to see what they have to say. It'S a pretty safe bet that

Feel lucky, feel blessed, but most of all, feel thankful, the great Captain Calzone has deemed you worthy to receive a letter from the protector of humanity. 1, along with my two sidekicks, Sheep Boy and Artichoke Lad, deeply enjoy your magazine when we're not fighting the likes of the evil Dr. Taco or the villainous Spaghetti Man. It is reassuring in our fight against villainy and corruption to know that the proud staff of EGM is making the planet safe for gamers while we protect the rest of the less cool world.

_ have Mode 7 capabilities? If поі, how do these games work?

Ulysses Ramos Incerlik AFB, Turkey (Ed. No, your Genesis does not have Mode 7 capabilities. _ What you're seeing is soft- ware rotation, not hardware . rotation as in the Super NES. — Here's the difference: Software rotation is an effect that's just programmed into the game. No special chips are needed for software rota- tion to work. Hardware rota- lion is where the computer or a special chip handles the special effects such as scal- ing and rotation. Hardware scaling and rotation often produce a more fluid, realistic effect.)

Andrew Mcleod

Oakville, Ont.

(Ed. There are two good rea- sons why І think people don't run out and start playing games on computers. First is money. A PC with a decent monitor, roomy hard drive, a good amount of RAM, a sound card, a halfway decent CPU and a CD-ROM drive will run you more than £ 82,000. Many people can't afford to go out and buy a computer. The second rea- son is really quite simple. Have you ever played Mortal Kombat Il on а РС? Ноу/ about Donkey Kong Country? They don't exist on the PC. That's not to say that they can't be made for the PC, however. Some games that are translated back and forth don't work too well. Remember Street Fighter II for the PC? Anyway, these two platforms are very differ- ent. On average (I know I’m going to get tons of letters for saying this!), PC games tend to be a little more involved than games on, say, the Super NES. That's on the average. In contrast, you get a lot more “mindless fun" games for the video game systems. Games like Contra: Hard Corps. and Earthworm Jim are good examples of this.)

STOP MAKING 32X TITLES? Speaking for all of the peo-

ple who own the 32X: Are they going to stop producing 32Х games and Sega CDs once they release the Sega Saturn here in the U.S.?

Eric Whitney

‘Maumee, OH (Ed. As far as we know, Sega has no intention of dropping support for the 32X even |

after the Saturn hits U.S. shores. It's a pretty safe bet that if sales of the 32X con- tinue to be brisk, your invest- ment is safe [for the time being, anyway]. Only time will tell.)

MAJOR MIKE'S GAME ROUNDUP

This is a different type of racing game that is more like Crash ‘N’ Burn. The unusual perspective takes some time getting used to, but the graphics and sound effects really show off the 3DO capabilities.

More in-the-cockpit action, Jumpgate is essentially the first Shockwave, it just has new combat areas. The control could use some fine-tuning, but awesome cinemas and intense action compensate.

H

This is a pretty good version of the pint-sized ninja character— enhanced by the addition of the playable femaje character. As usual, the levels are huge, but at times, are visual overkill. Not a bad game, though.

A fairly faithful portable version of the 16-Bit military classic Like the other versions, the lev- els are huge with plenty of ene- mies to destroy and submis- Sions to complete. Good con- trol, too.

An excellent new character, Ristar requires more technique than the typical run-and-jump action titles. Тһе stages аге very colorful, with good graph- ics and control. The. sounds could be a bit pumped up.

.. The cold winds of change are blowing across the Q-Mann's gaming empire. With my Quarter-maniacs firmly entrenched, it’s time once again to face off against the forces of the dark side of gaming gossip where the rumors have gone bad and lay strewn across the gaming landscape ... First up on the Q-Mann's plate is the rumor that Sony is shoot- ing for a September release date for their PlayStation mega-machine here in the States. You may have already heard, but sources close to the project are hinting that Sony may nab the ultimate 32-Bit pack-in: Mortal Kombat III and deliver the unit into your hands for under 300 bucks! Games for the new system have will reportedly clock in at under $50, with the titles produced by Sony themselves smashing into stores at the $40 plateau. With a new U.S. office now opened and a sizzling start in Japan (the Q was blown away by both Ridge Racer and Parodius—great stuff guys!), the PlayStation is shaping up to be the big gun of 1995...

...Believe it or not, but ЗОО may end up being a surprise victor in Ше ‘94 video game wars. With a lower price tag, some aggressive packaging, and—dare | say—a personality (courtesy of some trippin’ TV ads), the ЗОО unit is getting buzz on the street and fortunately leaving customers pleased with their purchase ... Sega, meanwhile, better be careful with their plans for the 32X. A source close to the Q tells yours truly that returns for the new machine have been high in some major electronics stores and the company is keeping quiet about the Saturn in the U.S. Sega is talking about the new Genesis with the 32X chips built-in. Previously known as Neptune, the machine is now going by the name of Genesis 32X System and it will cost under 200 beans when it hits market later this year. Word has it when they incorporate the 32X chip set inside, they will also add Virtua Fighters as a pack-in. They have a team of developers in Los Angeles right now working on Virtua Fighters and a version of Daytona for the new-look 32X. Seems they learned their lesson from

this past Christmas, when a pack-in was no where to be found...

...The Q-Mann has heard that Trip Hawkins has been having talks with Philips about a possible association between the two companies. Q hears the deal would involve the placement of 3DO chip architecture set within new CDi units to make the units compatible with 3DO software sometime in 1995. The talk is that Philips might even become the next company to be manufacturing their own ЗОО hardware unit in the not too distant future. Is that "hardware standard" | hear? ... Yours truly hears from his buds over at CINESCAPE magazine that Lucas is going to re-release Star Wars in '97 with four minutes of new footage—including a possible CG-generated Jabba! ... Staying with Star Wars, Sega is working on a Saturn game Rebel Strike for the Saturn. It's like Rebel Assault except it's got good game play. They have taken the speeder bikes out of Return of the Jedi and made the game using a Road Rash-type of environment with the Speeder Bike sequences. Stay tuned for more on this one...

...In Primal Rage news, Time Warner will be releasing a ported-over version for all of the 16-Bit systems and even one for the Saturn and the PlayStation in the fourth quarter of 1995 ... The Q hears that Silicon Graphics is having a little bit of trouble delivering the Ultra 64 home architecture for the $250 retail price tag promised long ago by Nintendo. The main CPU processor is clocking in at $85 U.S. and the entire chip packages as is will mean that the lowest the Ultra 64 could be released for is nearing 350 balloons. Nintendo of America is none too pleased and a delay in the release of the Ultra 64 in favor of a couple of titles with Donkey Kong Country quality graphics featuring Mario and Zelda could ease the pain of an Ultra 64 delay ... While wrestling with the Ultra 64 pricing problem, Nintendo is still making games using the arcade architecture. They plan on bringing a Star Fox sequel to an arcade near you sometime in the fourth quarter of this year or early next. The working title for the game is Star Fox X. Fox MacLeod and a new Ultra fast FX chip design are, Nintendo hopes, going to blow gamers away ... Konami is also in the Q-Mann loop this month, working on versions of Contra, Castlevania, Mystical Ninja and those Mutant Ninja Turtles for the PlayStation. The games will be released in conjunction with the launch of Sony's big machine ... Electronic Arts is working on a 3DO snowboarding game that will feature the world's best snowboarders. The game has some awesome SGI graphics and VERY fast game play. This one comes courtesy of the team that brought the Road Rash series to life ... Catch Bloodstorm, IT's arcade lesson in blood- letting, on the PlayStation, 32-X and Sega CD later this year ... Best wishes to Joe Morici, who's on his way to Florida to make GameTek the Capcom of the late ‘90s...

...Till we meet again, oh loyal followers of the Q, | will remain forever...

SEGA TO TREAD “DEEP WATER" WITH NEW MATURE GAMING LABEL

Eternal Champions CD will be the first Deep Water title.

Sega is heading into uncharted waters as they launch a new mature- oriented label, Deep Water.

The logo features the ominous shadow of a large shark slowly swimming iiie the depths of the

The label was created to communicate more effec- tively with M con-

sumers. It’s designed to say that any new game fea- turing this logo has mature content.

The label's pur- pose is to give con- sumers more information, so they can make a more informed decision on a Sega product with this logo.

When people see the Deep Water label they will know what they are getting. The label is in conjunction with the ratings system.

"The ratings system works well, but it's still just a letter that's constant across the entire industry. If you see an M and a T on a game from one company and an M and a T on a game from another company. You might not get the full idea of what's going

The label is just getting off the ground, but it will be a long-term label that will spread across multiple plat- forms. It will be on the Sega CD, 32X and the Sega Saturn.

“Тһе Sega brand name is associated with family enter- tainment and in order to expand beyond the kids-ori- ented Sega label, we feel Deep Water will expand the boundaries and give our producers and programmers

SUPERMAN USES IRON WILL 70 DEFEAT

It was the official launch of the Catapult X-Band modem and it was an event that was out of this world.

The Super Team con- sisting of Dean Cain (Clark Kent/Superman) and Justin Whalin (Jimmy Olsen) of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman fame were in Los Angeles to play the new Madden NFL '95 against New York Jets Marcus Turner and Bobby Houston in the ultimate X-Band pre-Super Bowl battle. The Super Team defeated the Jets, "Team Kryptonite" in both games, 41 to 12 and 44 to 18.

Were the Jets too tired from their long season or were Superman's super- human passes and bullets to the wide receivers too much for the Jets?

Once the game was over, the two teams traded X-mail messages using the Catapult modem.

The X-Band modem is an interesting way to introduce budding computer users and allows them to merge onto the information super highway and learn the ins and outs of an on-line ser- vice. Up until now the Genesis X-Band network has been the only network up and running. Beginning in March, the Super NES

THE GAME WIZARD'S MAGIC POWERS CAN MAKE YOUR WISHES COME TRUE

If you enjoy your Game Genie, here's another trick- finding, code-spitting device that will allow you to have many hours of gam- ing fun.

We're going to dissect the Game Wizard and tell you how good it really is.

The device has some great features, including a built-in, auto-search func- tion that lets you create and find your own special codes for Super NES and Super Famicom.

These special codes will allow you to become invin- cible, have unlimited power, more fuel, better weapons and a few other goodies.

Another plus about the Wizard is that it is compati- ble with all Pro-Action Replay codes. The codes that you find using your Pro-Action Replay will work on the same games when plugged into the Game Wizard.

With this handy little device, you can also

you can create the codes on your own.

The Game Wizard takes some getting used to, but it is fun to use.

If you don't have much patience, then stick with the Game Genie. Finding codes with the Game Wizard can be a long process at times. But the feeling you get when you find your own, exclusive code can be very reward- ing.

The Game Wizard works with all of the new Super NES games, including the two seen on this page: Earthworm Jim and Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure.

Unlike the Game Genie, the Game Wizard is upgradable, but in my opin- ion the Genie is better and easier to use. At times you may feel as though you need a magic wand to get the codes and tricks, so you'd better have lots of patience.

A controller is built right onto the bike and you can

start and stop the game as you ride, all the while taking off those extra pounds.

The entire Life Fitness Extertainment system pack- age costs $799. For an extra $150, you can get the heart monitor hook-up.

The Lifecycle aerobic train- er only has one game cur- rently available, Mountain Bike Rally. This game has

The object of the game is to complete all four stages of the game as fast as you can.

It's the only exercise pro- gram of its kind that com- bines video games with fit- ness.

It's loaded with some unique features, including

Screen workout program- ming, on-screen display of |. calories burned and calo- ries per hour, an on-

More games are on the way with Dr. Mario, Tetris, Pac- Man and Speed Racer are already being worked on to work with the Life Fitness Extertainment system.

It's fun for the entire family!

Speed King uses the hover ability to slide sideways into a Time Extension.

AMERICAN AMUSEMENT MACHINE ASSOCIATION

Konami is currently developing a futuristic racing game called Speed King. The game essentially puts/you іп а racing capsule that emulates.the same feeling you get in a Battletech center. However, unlike being in a slow-moving mech, this fast-paced game really puts you into the action by moving the capsule while you're in it, making it not only a racing game, but a wild ride as well. The craft you control is not a car, truck or motorcycle, but rather a futuristic hovercraft. This gives you more free- dom in your turning and дмега! con- trol. Your craft tends to slide right into a turn. There promiges to be а lot of tunnels, underground levels and other full-screen levels where texture mapping can be used to the absolute fullest. Also, being in a hover vehicle may give you the power to climb walls, and it will defi- nitely provide you with short spurts’ of flight power from time to time /

Speed King is somewhat-of change for the guys at Konami. Their earlier efforts, the most popular of which were Lethal Enforcers | & II, have dominated the arcade charts

Now, right along with Primal Rage, T-MEK is get- ting an update. Here are some of the features of T-MEK 5.1: The Warlords:

Beginner/Advanced Modes

When a player starts a game, they choose the experience level Beginner or Advanced. If you're a Beginner, the game is quite a bit easier. Advanced MEKSs (Hyper, Lurker, Suicide) may not be.chosen. When an enemy hits you, the MEK will automatically turn toward the attacker. If the player has not scored any points for a while, the MEK will be transported to the location of an opponent. Players cannot avoid the POV missile. If the player’s MEK has been destroyed three times in а row without the player having destroyed anyone else’s MEK, the player’s MEK takes damage at a greatly reduced rate. At the Battle Results Screen, beginning players will.not see the num- ber of kills they made.

Instructional Screens

Two new instructional screens have been added to version 5.1 to make the basic objectives of T-MEK combat clearer. These screens appear after the player selects a MEK.

Well, by the time you read this , we will be hip- deep in new CES titles. That's right, the Winter CES in Las Vegas is here, and all the hot pro- jects of the upcoming year will be there.

Until then, the news is that GameTek is licensing Strata's arcade game Blood Storm and will be making conversions for the PlayStation and the Sega CD. Sounds good!

Absolute is working on a Sega CD title based on the witty and humorous magicians Penn & Teller (see pictures below). Subtitled Smoke and Mirrors, we can only wonder what this one's about.

A big surprise this month is the appearance of Earthworm Jim Special Edition for the Sega CD. It's loaded with lots of new features.

Oh well, time to relax

Enter a war-torn battle- field in this interactive experience that pushes the Sega CD to the limits. Take your tank up against the enemy forces in locales such as the coun- tryside of Eastern Europe to the desolate tundra of Alaska.

Whatever you face, you'll be armed with the deadliest arsenal your tank can carry. You've got machine guns that can carve up infantry or a 120mm cannon that will totally hollow-out a tank. When in doubt, you can always rely on your laser- guided missiles. They always hit the spot.

Rapid Deployment Force uses 3-О rendered cinemas to bring the glob- al conflict alive on your TV. The cinemas will show the face of the enemy, what you will be going up against and even a mis- Sion briefing or two.

Rapid Deployment Force takes the Sega CD's powers to the limit. Think you can handle a plot to take over the " world? You're going to Г need all of your reflexes and skills for this one. Are you tough enough?

Keep your eyes open. Enemy fire will strike at you.

Blow up anything that stands in your way.

Face off with the enemy's tanks and hope that they have weaker armor. Keep your fingers crossed.

Ridge Racer has been acclaimed as one of the best driving games to ever hit the arcades. Now with the power of the Sony PlayStation, this racing smash is faithfully duplicated. Ridge Racer has everything from the beautiful lady at the starting grid, to the shameless Namco game plugs, to the annoying yellow Lamborghini. Namco left nothing out of their arcade baby, and even added a little more like a new driving perspective. You can even play a little game of Galaxian while the game loads up! Add to that secrets not found in the arcade and you got a fantastic game for a superb system.

Konami's Parodius Deluxe Pack combines both of the arcade versions on one CD. Parodius actually means parody of Gradius, and it's another one of Konami's classic shooters.

The first game is Parodius and the second game on the CD is called Gokujou Parodius. In the games everything is so off the wall and some of the elements, like BJ Boss and the Las Vegas show girl, add risk elements to the games. Two people can play at the same time in Gokujou and two players can get in on the 1 action alternatively in the Super Famicom version. Huge end-Bosses, lots of power-ups and CD-quality sound make this game one to look for when the PlayStation arrives later this year.

MORTAL KOMBA Т

t the conclusion of Mortal

Kombat II, peace seemed an

elusive, but promising, prospect

for the forces opposing Shao Kahn. Little did we realize that as the hysteria surrounding MK2 was sweeping the country, game creators Ed Boon and John Tobias were already plotting the destruction of the Mortal Kombat world as we have known it...

Although there has been plenty of conjecture surrounding the impending release of Midway's next super hit, Mortal Kombat IIl, a variety of forces have conspired to keep the latest edition of the hottest fighting game series under wraps. Hoping to release part three in tandem with the big-budget film version of the Outworld con- flict, Midway is using the time to continue to modify the mythos while letting their latest fighter, Killer Instinct, bask in the light of its number one arcade rating.

In preparing this special report on the next Mortal Kombat sequel, however,

EGM has discovered a number of important developments and changes that will be included in part three. Not only will each of the characters return with a new look as well as new moves (Tobias' sketches can be found on subsequent pages), several important alterations in the way the game may be released could impact the way in which the game is played in different regions of the country. These and other changes detailed on the following pages are sure to attract the same legions of enthusiasts that transformed Mortal Kombat from a simple video game into a part of American culture.

IN THE BEGINNING...

In the previous Mortal Kombat games, we have witnessed a battle for the future of the planet, with the victor determining whether or not we live in eternal darkness.

Mortal Kombat III confirms that the worst nightmare of all has come true. After dispatching the last of the Outworld challengers, Shao Kahn has taken absolute control and plunged the planet and the Outworld into total destruction. Although it is still unclear as to how the final battle is convened, Mortal Kombat lll represents the last hance humanity has to defend itself from Kahn's wrath.

After honing their skills in the first Mortal Kombat encounter and refining them

even more against a more diverse selection of warriors in part two, the third and , quite possibly final chapter » in the Mortal Kombat saga =~) Will introduce players to а world in ruins, governed by the malevolent Shao Kahn. Smashed 3cityscapes with familiar [icons that have been crushed by Shao Kahn's power will serve as the

dA N \ 7 backdrop for battle.

These desolate environments will Serve as the dark backdrop for the final conflict between the А good and evil combatants’ gathering, as well as a con- Ё stant reminder to all of just how ruthless their ultimate foe has become.

LEND ME AN ARM:

109 (£A

THE KOMBATANTS

While it is not known at this point how the Mortal Kombat warriors survived the Shao Kahn takeover, it has been dis- covered by EGM that there will be some major modifications made to sev- eral characters. In addition to aesthetic enhancements to characters such as Kung Lao and Sonya, several fighters such as Jax and Kano have been com- pletely altered. At this time, it appears that Jax will return to Kombat with two new bionic arms and a series of new moves that take advantage of the high- tech power he's now equipped with.

Kano and Sonya will both return after their sabbatical from МК (rumors that they can be accessed in the sequel per- Sist, but the technique has yet to be uncovered), having been freed from capture and none the worse for wear.

It could be interesting to see how being incarcerated has affected their disposi- tion.

Boon and Tobias hint at the possibility of playing as one of the animated char- acters such as Goro or Kintaro, as well as introducing yet another such party crasher in Mortal Kombat III.

While all of these changes are very exciting, EGM has been told by Boon and Tobias that the basic game play elements will not change drastically from what we've grown accustomed to

in previous battles. There will be some minor modifications to the execution, but the majority of the play mechanics will remain intact.

GRAPHIC VIOLENCE

While Killer Instinct has drawn raves for its high-tech presentation, Mortal Kombat III will not use Silicon Graphics workstations (with the possible excep-

DIGITAL DUO: This preliminary screen shot not only showcases Kano and Sonya's new garb, it also highlights the improved quality of Mortal Kombat ІІГ5 graphics

tion of a Killer Instinct crossover (see MKS rumors on page 112). The highly detailed, digitized graphics found in the two previous Mortal Kombats will likely make up the majority of the graphics and animation, although the quality of both will be enhanced. Look for the fighters to show up sharper and more realistic than ever.

The sound support found in Mortal Kombat Ill hasn't been decided yet, but as we go to press the system being favored is the DCS sound system that was employed іп Mortal Kombat Il.

KOMBATING THE INTERNET

Probably the most drastic change that occurred between the release of Mortal Kombat II and Killer Instinct was Midway's decision to omit the version number, thus keeping secret (at least until the game begins) what revision is being played. With each new revision comes new moves, requiring players to master the various versions to become completely versed in all of the tech- niques potentially available.

Midway has hinted that this trend may continue in Mortal Kombat IIl, with the version number hidden. To combat the quick and easy distribution of hidden combos, special moves and finishing moves, however, Midway is considering distributing different versions of the game to different areas within each country! This means that the hidden moves that will be packaged with the game released in Chicago could be completely changed in those Mortal Kombat machines that go into arcades

on the West and East Coasts.

The reasoning is that taking such actions will slow down the quick dis- semination of game secrets over the Internet and in game magazines.

"Players who share game secrets over the Internet or through other means are not only hurting the long- term life of the game," says Midway's Roger Sharpe, "they're also cheating themselves out of a more fulfilling play- ing experience. It's always more fun to overcome challenges and discover Secrets on your own."

Taking such a move would definitely make it more challenging to learn all of the secrets of Mortal Kombat III as well as keep ЕСМ editors on their toes.

MORAL KOMBAT

One question that will certainly come to the minds of some game players is just how violent will the third installment of Mortal Kombat end up being?

With Congress continuing to review the steps taken by video game manu- facturers to shield younger players from potentially disturbing or pornographic material, some in the coin-operated industry have expressed concern over the government demanding similar requirements in arcades. Although most games currently (or can be made to) come with violence-eliminating dip Switches to tailor a particular game to a particular setting, there are no easy methods of policing what individual arcade operators do on a store-by-store basis. Knowing the flack (and lost sales) that Nintendo received for releas- ing a version that was sanitized, it's highly likely that owners would come under great pressure from gamers who

demanded that they serve up nothing less than the uncensored version.

Will the continuing climate in Washington to single out violent video games have a great effect on the level of blood and guts in Mortal Kombat III? It remains to be seen, but early indica- tions point to more spine-ripping, flesh- clawing, head-exploding fun in the future.

THE FUTURE

With a mega-budget, big Hollywood film version of the Mortal Kombat video game due in theaters this May (the game is planned for a simultaneous launch), what lies beyond the third Mortal encounter remains hazy. It’s still unclear whether or not Midway plans future MK video games, but there are rumors that this may be the last. While the merchandising machine surrounding Mortal remains strong (there are official clubs, magazines, books and more on the way), EGM is hearing that Midway may have an entirely new fighting

series in development to replace (or at least try to) Mortal Kombat.

Meanwhile, you can look forward to the official release of MK3 in May (play- ers in Chicago will get a chance to sample it a month earlier on test), and see whether or not this is the final cap to one of the most successful games of all time. You can expect the home ver- sions to follow sometime in October or November to cash in on the important holiday season. Also, with several new game systems launching in the last half of ‘95, don’t be surprised if a bidding war opens up to secure this title as the ultimate pack-in. (EGM hears Sony may be close to grabbing MK3 for the PlayStation and that Acclaim is negoti- ating for rights to the 16-Bit platforms where Sculptured Software is rumored to be doing the port of МКЗ.)

Until its release, you can count on Mortal Kombat III to remain the most eagerly awaited release this year.

ONE ON ONE WITH SCOTTIE PIPPEN

The day after Scottie Pippen drained one from past half court at the half- time buzzer, | got a chance to ask him a few questions about his game. It was quite a shot, and Slam City with Scottie Pippen by Digital Pictures is quite a video game.

It was a media feeding frenzy and all of the major networks were buzzing around asking questions about the game. It was hard

to get a word in edgewise, һ but | hung in there and À came away with my À own three-point shot | atthe buzzer. | Unfortunately, "NU? | didn't get to play against ^" Scottie because І didn't have someone with a Betacam following me around the event that was put on by Digital Pictures and held at Nike Town in Chicago. The

- opportunity to play Scottie at his own video game was reserved for TV journalists, none of whom came close to beating him. Three points was the most any of them scored. Despite not being able to play the Chicago Bulls superstar, | did get to ask him and his teammate Tony Kukoc a few questions about his new video game.

Kukoc accompanied Pippen to the media event to show support for the new game that bears Scottie's name and to put to rest rumors that the teammates aren't on the best of terms either on the court or in the locker room. When members of the EGM staff got there, we saw Scottie and Tony joking around and playing the game. When | asked Tony what he thought of the game, he answered with а big smile.

"The game is fun to play! | have a better chance of beating him out on the court

h

than | do in the game, though.

“The other day | went out and bought а ЗОО. | enjoy playing video games, although I just started [play- ing them.]"

The only game Tony has at the moment is Pebble Beach Golf Links, but he intends to buy Sewer Shark, Street Fighter ІІ and possibly John Madden Football when he has a chance.

When the network media finished asking their ques- tions about the game, I final- ly had my chance to go one- on-one with the Chicago Bulls superstar. | started out by asking him to describe the differences between shooting footage for a video game and shooting a commercial.

“It's a much longer process shooting footage for a commercial because you have to keep doing things over and over again. For Slam City, it was kind of like attending practice," Scottie said. "I had a lot of fun and the Digital Pictures staff was great to work with."

І also asked him if he would consider doing anoth- er game.

"Certainly. It was a lot of fun to make the game and now playing it [is fun, too.] | would like to do it again, ! wouldn't hesitate."

WAR HAS NEVER BEEN

Have you got what it takes to track down the abandoned helicopter in the middle of the arid desert and rescue Mr. President from the enemy base before everyone gets blown to smithereens by heat-seeking missiles? Do you have the guts to negotiate arctic wastelands to find the skud missile factory surrounded by treacherous booby traps? Have you the nerve to enter a heavily occupied underground base, locate the secret plans and blow up the enemy computer system before returning to the steamy jungle with only a few jeeps at your disposal to protect the natives from advancing tanks?

Welcome to. Cannon Fodder, probably the single most addicting game since Lemmings In fact, think of Cannon Fodder as Lemmings, ;with.guns. "Lots of guns. Get the picture?

There is no plot to Cannon Fodder-(well, okay, there is a plot buried-in there some- where; something about sav- ing Mr. President. from terror- ists); but you'll soon forget that in the excitement of blowing things up. It's basi- cally shooting shooting and more shooting (and a couple of grenadés to break пр Ше monotony).

Your guys may look car- toonish; but don't let that fool you about-the difficulty-of this game. This-ain't no walk in the park; buddy.-Some Seri- ous strategy.must be utilized if you are to.be victorious. You must use everything at your disposal, whether it's your weapons, troops or your surrounding scenery, tó:gain the upper hand and totally annihilate your enemy.

Any CD is a match for the MovieWave

ҒАТ, onfused about C what seem to be millions of vari- ous compact disc formats out there?

You no longer have to be with the new Multiwave Innovation MovieWave Station. The MovieWave plays nearly all popular formats like CD-i full-motion video movies, audio CD and Kodak Photo CD, just to name a few.

The MovieWave also has a built-in, 3-D sur- round sound processor to enhance anything

played over it. The surround technology is the same type that is commonly used in some movie theaters to enhance motion picture sound. A remote control accompanies the unit for total control.

Will MovieWave become a standard as far as players go? If a standardized CD movie disc becomes a main- stream reality, the MovieWave may be- come a must-have for the home-theater enthusiast.

Encarta knows the meaning of life?!

ook out Alex Tribec, here comes Microsoft Encarta *95!

Whether you use this PC CD-ROM for school, work or just for fun, Encarta will tell you virtu- ally anything from the inventors of forms of music to the way the moon orbits around the Earth.

This program should run with no problem on any IBM-compatible, 486- based system with Windows and a double- speed CD-ROM drive.

Encarta “95 is filled with fun facts and oodles of multimedia samples like sounds, news clips and animations.

Also nice are the new multimedia drivers that install along with Encarta. With these drivers, movie clips will look much cleaner and play bet- ter.

After using Encarta ‘95, most people will be || able to answer questions about the rulers in Africa between 1700 and 1800. Undoubtedly, this will impress your friends, neighbors

and powerful, Encarta ‘95 is a definite crowd-pleaser from beginning to end (which is in 1996, I guess!)

Encarta fun fact: A Didgeridoo is actually a long, hollowed-out piece of eucalyptus used as a musical instrument in the Australian outback. It makes a low, gravelly sound that is very impressive.

With all of the interesting facts you will receive from Encarta, now, instead of being jealous of the con- testants on Jeopardy!, you can simply play along with them. The world will be a friendlier place now that Encarta ‘95 is here!

magine Star Wars or 2001: A Space Odyssey without the music. Truly an ugly thing.

Music is what sets the mood for the escape from the natives after Indy gets the idol or the flight that Superman takes Lois Lane on. Without music, these scenes may not have been as intense or memorable.

Now, we can have all of this great music at a touch of a button with a new line of compact discs from Telarc International Music Corporation.

The series is a compila- tion of various songs from different sci-fi and fanta- sy/adventure films. Some include the theme from Jurassic Park, Clash of the Titans, Beetlejuice and the Star Wars Trilogy.

Totaling five, these CDs are a must for any avid fan of these types of movies and for those who lust after incredible, hard-hit- ting soundtrack-type music. The music is beau-

tifully conducted by Erich Kunzel and performed by the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra. All the CDs are recorded in high quality with information about each track and a brief run- down of the various scenes that accompany them from the movie.

The compact discs not shown are Star Tracks I and II and Time Warp.

The selections vary from CD to CD, but each one offers beautifully orches- trated sound that brings back memories of many great films.

Also included on some of the discs are digital sound effects that throw you into the next room, plus sur- round sound synthesizer solos that will amaze you and have you looking around the room wonder- ing where the next sound will come from.

The Great Fantasy Adventure Album, as shown below, offers a track entitled Jurassic Lunch. What fun!
