Mad About the Ratings

1 just checked out the September /October Game informer. it shows the pictures, moves, keys, and the re- viewers talking about the ratings. I'm a little mad about the ratings. it’s not fair that SNES gets all the credit. They should also talk about Genesis. It’s also a p system. | know that the SNES has good quality colors and sounds, but that's still no reason to say Genesis has bad graphics and sound. I'm tired of reading the ratings that say "Genesis has horrible sound and color, SNES definitely blows its socks off”. | don’t even know if | shall buy МКИ for the Genesis with all

those bad ratings. SNES wouldn't be here with out Genesis anyway, and рт still sticking to Sega. Joel ona | Chicago,

I've got to say that we have gotten а number of letters concerning Duel reviews, especially when the writer's system loses the battle. However, [don't think everybody knows the SNES has better graphics and sound, because they don't. While their system does have better graphics capabilities, that doesn't necessarily translate into good game play. For instance, Earthworm

Jim and Beavis and Butthead аге |

definitely better on the Genesis than the SNES. Itall has to do with how the game is programmed. Although the Genesis version of MKII didn't score higher than the original MK, it wasn't to say that it wasn't a better game, but that it stood atan eight compared to the other games that were out at the time the game came out. Last year, the graphics on MKI were much more innovative than they were when MKII came out. Think about it. You can't compare reviews of earlier games for a system with those of later games, because in the computer business the learning curve moves at such a great pace that even as soon as four months after a game comes out, it is outdated by a newer innovation. What can you Say, it's the computer biz.

Rick, we’ve g to agree, we don't

ea it was to make the CD-ROM unit so soon, but we'll just have to wait and see. Of course, the new games are shaping up to be quite good. AVP and Kasumi are turning out to be excellent games, but we're afraid to say that we think some of the other products are faltering because of it. For example take Dragon the Bruce Lee story; man that game stinks.

Mind boggling Questions

Here are some mind boggling questions that have been keeping my cerebral cortex in overdrive. First, | must admit that the Jaguar has two flaws (nevertheless, 1 still love the Jag): software and format of software. Software is not going to be a problem in the long run, although it appears to be one at the current time. Reason being, Atari has put so much time and development into this machine, that 1 doubt they will allow for it to be abandoned. Аз for their other ll- censees, not producing games for this system would be a BIG mistake considering the tremendous pro- cessing power of the system. Now if В could only get a y license like MK2 (wishful thinking). As for the for- mat, the Jag's cartridge base disap- points me, since CD's are the future of interactive gaming.

Next, Га like to address the tech- niques used b rammers and de- velopers. The CD comes with a tremendous amount of storage in contrast to the cartridge. With all this roc oM ceo oasa Mat e oae

eveloper will “slack off", since жир] how to use the number of megs of memory is not as crucial. Гт

date with EA’s growing line of sports carts. Well, that’s it - for now. J.D. The “Sports Master”

1 don't know that І agree with you on the CD-ROM format, but | will say it has definite possibilities. Its major drawback is its lack of an algorithm or drive that will reduce the access times to an acceptable rate. It's not to say that future systems will not break through this drawback, but | have yet to see a CD-ROM that can capture the magic and interaction of a cartridge.

Concerning your question about compression, all the video games that come out today are run through compression routines to get the size and cost of the carts down. In the case of CD-ROM, they use compression to download compressed information into RAM so they can use the CD-ROM for music, SFX, and voices. The area that CD-ROM developers will "slack off" (as you Say), is in how well they design their game to hide CD-ROM access times. For instance, don't you notice that some games have decent transitions from scene to scene, while others are incredibly annoying. Now that's what ! call “slacking off”!

Your final question concerning upgradable carts is one that | have presented to EA in the past, but in all truthfulness, | just don’t see it happening. EA doesn't just upgrade the stats every year, they try to create a new and more exciting version than the previous year. Whether they capture your purchasing dollars or not is entirely up to you. Thanks for the letter and we hope we hear from you again.

Atari games

Isaw an article in your May/June is- sue of Game Informer that said that people could get old Atari games at Radio Shack. It also said that you could get systems and controllers for fairly cheap. But when | went to Radio Shack, they said they didn't have the systems or the Joysticks. I have а lot

of Atari games, but | really need ап Atari system. кит mes уау

Lyo

Sorry James, we got our information from Radio Shack and never checked its accuracy and it does appear that they don't carry the systems them- selves. They do carry an assortment of 2600 games including Football, Space Invaders, Super Breakout, and. Yar's Revenge, but no systems. However, they carry the 7800 system and its games, but I'm sure you could really care less. If you do wish to order you can call their Express Order System at 1-800-241-8742. Luckily, | have an alternate plan. Either run an ad in your local paper, or go to a couple of garage sales, because 2600's are frequently found in people's basements and are sold fairly cheaply. That's probably the best course of action if you're really interested in finding a 2600.

Sega Ve. Nintendo І recently saw a very foolish commercial by Sega. A

they belleve that their system is better than the Super NES because their games are less expensive?! The reason you pay the extra ШЕ, or 20 dollars is captis er ceri они omas Ciesla

Of course, that all depends on where you buy your games. Plus, what if you own a Sega to play sports games like NHL or J. Madden, which are far superior on the Genesis? Either way, you've got to admit that the commercials are pretty funny.

Thanks for the Cool Tips!

After reading your past few mag- azines | found the Swap Shop very helpful. The Secret Access is great. 1 was reading Secret Access and ! found out a few things that Nintendo Power doesn't tell you. Another ex- ample would be Mega Man X. All the other magazines | read didn't tell me where the X-Buster power-up was.

The most noticeable difference from the initial 32X revs of the game is the reduced play screen. Sega made the reduction to increase the play speed. The overall look and action is nearly identical to its PC counterpart. Some levels have been downsized, / however, so don’t think you'll be able to use а PC strategy quide for the 32X version.

There is an orignial cast of villians, including

some bosses that will prove quite а challenge if you can stop yourself from laughing.

ears ago legends spoke of an ancient time when two lands

coexisted: one ruled by Humans and the other by Demons. Each world lived in perfect harmony until six magical stones fell from the sky into the Demon’s realm. These powerful stones were marked with the crests of Fire, Earth, Air, Water, Time, and Heaven. Together these stones brought great power, so the demon’s fought for the chance to possess the stones and rule the land. When the smoke cleared only one demon was left standing the red demon Firebrand. However, his price _ for victory had been high. The Demon - Dragon had critically wounded him. As

Phalanx would not be easily fooled.

This is the opening scenario of one of three adventures to be included in the long awaited new Jaguar Cart - Alien vs. Predator. Based somewhat on the series by Dark Horse Comics, this cartridge combines three games in one, each with engrossing and believable plot lines.

The marine begins on the 3rd level of a5 level marine base, with a Predator ship docked on level 1, and an Alien ship on level 5. You must find all 10 security cards in order to set the self-destruct, then run to the escape pod in order to get away safely. As the Predator, you must fight your way to the Alien ship ona one-creature safari to claim the skull of the Alien queen. Finally, join in the hive mentality as an Alien worker on a desperate quest to save the queen and ensure the survival of the Alien race.

Whichever role you choose to play, it’s a solitary struggle against an onslaught of the other two races, and you must utilize the specific talents of each race in order to survive. Finally here, this intense and time consuming cart will at last give Jaguar owners a reason to keep their system under the TV, not in the closet. Let’s keep it up Atari. @

You awake from your cryosentence even angrier at your commanding officer than before, but otherwise unchanged in attitude. More than ever before, you have a strong desire to kick some serious butt. You suddenly realize you may not have long to wait, for as you step out of your cell, you find one of your crewmates viciously slaughtered. His insides have been torn out and strewn about his body; his face is unrecognizable. Visualizing the kind of creature that might have been able to do this to a well trained and well armed Colonial Marine, you snatch his shotgun to defend yourself and head to a computer terminal in order to shed some light on this horrific turn of events.

Sneak up on enemies with your cloaking device... Uncloak to kill with honor.

Score 150,000 points and they give you a stick. те

TRAINING CARD #7 FOR ALL OF \ PRIMAL ВАСЕ 5 MOVES!

42 L MOVES ARE DONE WITH A BUTTON COMBINATION

1:HIGH QUICK 2:HIGH FIERCE 3:LOW QUICK 4:LOW POWER

By RYAN MacDONALD

PRIMAL RAGE 15 THE HOTTEST NEW FIGHTING GAME IN THE ARCADES, WHICH FEATURES SEVEN BATTLING DINOSAURS. THIS BEAUTIFULLY STYLED GAME HAS DIFFERENT WARRIORS, ALL WITH UNIQUE ABILITIES. THE GRAPHICS ARE TOP-NOTCH, THE CREATURES APPEAR TO BE REAL. THIS REALISM WAS ACHIEVED THROUGH THE PROCESS KNOWN AS STOP-MOTION ANIMATION, AND DIGITIZED IN MUCH THE SAME MANNER AS GORO IN MORTAL KOMBAT. THE GRAPHICS, SOUND AND CONCEPT ARE THE POINTS WHICH MAKES PRIMAL RAGE A CUT ABOVE YOUR AVERAGE FIGHTING GAME.

FOR EXAMPLE, AS YOU START TO RACK UP VICTORIES, YOU GAIN A FOLLOWING OF CAVE PEOPLE, WHO ARE ROOTING FOR YOUR VICTORY ON THE SIDELINES. AFTER A WELL EXECUTED COMBO, THEY WILL RUN IN FRONT OF YOU AN BOW IN YOUR HONOR. IF DONE CORRECTLY, YOU CAN EXECUTE ANOTHER MOVE WHERE YOUR DINOSAUR WILL ACCEPT THEIR PRAISE AS A LIVING SACRIFICE, AND IN TURN, ADD TO YOUR LIFE METER.

THE ONLY MAJOR COMPLAINT IN PRIMAL RAGE 15 THE PLAY CON- TROL, OR LACK THEREOF. THE MINDS AT ATARI DECIDED TO CHANGE THE WAY GAMES ARE PLAYED BY MAKING IT THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU ARE USED TO. FOR INSTANCE, IN STREET FIGHTER AND MORTAL KOMBAT, TO PERFORM A SPECIAL MOVE YOU FOLLOW UP A CONTROLLER MOTION WITH A COMBINATION OF BUTTONS, WHEREAS IN PRIMAL RAGE, YOU MUST HOLD THE BUTTONS DOWN WHILE DOING THE CONTROLLER MOTION. THE END RESULT IS INACCURATE AND SLOWER SPECIAL MOVES.

| DO HAVE TO GIVE ATARI A BIG PAT ON THE BACK FOR TRYING SOMETHING NEW, ALTHOUGH | WOULD HAVE ENJOYED THIS GAME MUCH MORE WITH AN EASIER AND MORE CONVENTIONAL CONTROLS.

OVERALL, PRIMAL RAGE 15 AWESOME. THE FINISHING MOVES ARE ALL GROTESQUE AND THE GRAPHICS ARE UNMATCHED. WITH THIS IN MIND, YOU CAN'T SEEM TO GO WRONG WITH PRIMAL RAGE. BUT TO ANSWER THE LOOMING QUESTION, “Is IT BETTER THAN MORTAL KOMBAT 11222" | HAVE TO SAY, NOT QUITE - BUT WITH BETTER CONTROLS PRIMAL RAGE COULD GIVE MK2 A RUN FOR ITS MONEY.

News & Rumors From the Video Game Industry

An Arcade Dream

On September 22 24 in San Antonio, Texas the Amusement & Music Operators Association (AMOA) held their annual international convention. While it is a meeting of many different products (from little dinosaur rides to skee ball), the main attractions were the arcade and pinball games. Неге 5 a brief overview of what we saw and what was cool.

As you walked into the convention center, the first things you saw were Williams’ and Nintendo’s Killer Instinct and Cruisin’ USA. These were probably the two best games at the show. While Cruisin’ wasn't the most

graphically appealing game, it did have very realistic action and seven

different cars to choose from (at the vehicle select screen press and hold th view button to see the other 3). Killer Instinct, which should be taking t

arcades by storm right now, features unbelievable graphics and some very _

cool gameplay. Touting great 3-D images, tons -o- combos (ranging

For Nintendo's Ultra 64 = |

Doom madness will continue with the announcement that Williams Entertainment will have the exclusive right to develop an advanced version of the PC mega-hit, Doom, on the Ultra 64.

Williams will develop the game under the creative direction of id Software, the creators of Doom and Doom Il for the PC. Like the Jaguar and 32X versions of Doom, the Ultra 64 version will include new levels, more characters, and enhanced graphics. This version will be unique to the Ultra 64.

Doom for the Ultra 64 is scheduled to hit the streets when Nintendo's 64-bit system is released in the fall of 1995.

Atari and Williams Sign Deal

Atari and Williams Entertainment have teamed up to bring new versions of some classic arcade games onto the Atari Jaguar and PCs.

The new licensing agreement will have Atari creating new 64-bit versions of such Williams hits as Joust, Defender, and Robotron. These new versions will not be duplicates of the old arcade masterpieces. It was reported that the one of the main features of these games may be first-person perspectives, much like Aliens vs. Predator and Doom. "64-bit power will make our best games even better by creating a compelling, immersive experience for players," said Byron Cook, president of Williams Entertainment.

Atari will market the games for its Jaguar system, and Williams will handle the marketing and licensing for the PC version. Although no definite time frame has been set for the games' releases, it will be interesting to see how these games are transformed from the ‘70's to the 905.

The New Entertainment Software Rating System

Spearheaded by U.S. Senator “Diamond” Joe Lierberman and the Interactive Digital Software Association (ISDA) , a new rating system has been created “to give consumers information about what's in an interactive video or computer entertainment title and for which age it's appropriate"

The “appropriateness” and content of a piece of software will be reviewed by a new indepen- dent board called the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB). The ESRB has developed a rating system that puts interactive software into five different categories. If you're concerned about the content of “game” you're going to rent or buy, look for these (or other ratings) on the front of the package. For more information on the new rating system, call the ESRB toll free at 1-800-771-3772.

"Titles rated 'Early Childhood (EC)' are suitable for children three and older and do not contain any material that parents would find inappropriate." Example: Sesame Street Counting Cafe by Electronic Arts

"Titles rated 'Kids to Adult (K-A)' are suitable for persons ages six years and older. They may contain minimal violence, some comic mischief, or some crude language." Example: NFL '95 by Sega Sports

"Titles rated 'Teen (T)' are suitable for persons ages 13 and older. Titles in this category may contain violent content, profanity, and/ or mild sexual themes." Example: Lethal Enforcers by Konami

"Titles rated ‘Mature (M)' are suitable for persons ages 17 and older. These products may include more intense violence or profanity than products in the Teen category. In addition, these titles may also include mature sexual

themes." Example: Mortal Kombat Il by Acclaim

"Titles rated ‘Adults Only (AO)' are suitable for adults. These products may include graphic depiction of sex and/ or violence. Adults Only products are not intended to be sold or rented to persons under the age of

re you modeling your swing after the fluid Will Clark or the powerful Ken Griffey, Jr.? Sports Sciences Inc., maker of Tee V Golf (What's Hot, Jan./ Feb. '94), has

introduced a foam covered interactive video baseball bat. The Batter Up bat is designed for play with your favorite Sega Genesis or Super Nintendo baseball carts. The Batter Up is equipped with compatibility switches that can be adjusted to work with nearly every cart. The bat is programmed to calculate whether you have hit one over the backstop, in the gap to center, over the fence, or haven't hit the ball at all. Like Tee V Golf, the Batter Up has the ability to sense how well you swing. Batter Up can be used to hone that smooth and level swing in the off (or strike) sea- Son. But remember that it can't be used to smack your friend after he strikes you out.

Sports Sciences Inc's Batter Up comes in a wireless or wired version for

both the SNES and Genesis. It is available now with a MSRP of $119.99.
