Its cover sees the return of one of gaming’s most treasured franchises: Prince Of Persia. We’re promised no time-reversing daggers this time, however, just the kind of flowing platforming combat that we’ve come to expect from the series.
Elsewhere, we head from Persia to New York to catch up with the latest developments in Alone In The Dark, as an ancient evil spreads through the city in a series of perfectly-packaged episodes. But on a lighter note, we investigate Reset Generation, the biggest game coming to a tiny platform, the N-gage range of mobile phones, and take a look at how GarageGames want us to play games in out browsers, and how developers create authentically stupid enemies.
In our regular features, we experience the full horror of Resident Evil 2 in Time Extend, and uncover the making of Kung-Fu Chaos. We preview Fallout 3, Ninja Gaiden II and Soul Calibur IV, and review Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Opoona, Bangai-O spirits as well as a little-known title by the name of Grand Theft Auto 4.
