Cover story is on Devil May Cry 4. Classic GI includes a story on System Shock 2 and reviews for Norse by Norsewest, Johnny Bazookatone and Kirby's Avalanche. Also, in their rumors section, they mention that EA might be working on a sequel to Marvel Nemesis. Let's all hope that's all it is, a rumor.

Starfox Command scoring higher than Megaman ZX is a travesty... at least Megaman ZX has difficulty and length.
At least Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime scored pretty high, I had doubts about it. I think I'll go trade in some stuff for it tommorrow and get it instead of Okami, since handheld games take forever to drop.

Eh, who cares... I woulden't go completely by reviews.

I already own Megaman ZX and I've played Starfox, so I'm not basing any of my purchasing decisions on Game Informer, who is about 1 - 3 weeks too late with some of these scores anyways ;)
The only thing that interests me is the Rocket Slime review because I wasn't sure if it would score semi high or mediocre... it's a good start, I'm sure I can scrounge up the games for it for the EB trade 3 deal.

Pretty low on Enchanted Arms, IMO. It's nothing groundbreaking, but it's a pretty solid RPG.

Yeah, I've gotten it near the end of the month before. It can take awhile to get to you.
Mik, that's basically what they said in the review for it.
The one thing I'm getting tired of seeing with these magazines is them bashing Ultimate Ghosts n Goblins. Okay, so it has the same problems as the other games in the series, but some of us don't care about it and just play. Just be glad they came out with another game instead of sitting on it like Nintendo does with Kid Icarus.

All the reviews I've read have knocked it down for being too hard and not fixing the problems that reviewers think are "broken", even though that's how the series has been since its inception.

I believe that the Multi-platform section only includes the Gamecube, Xbox, and PS2.

yea i know that, but it's funny that on the 360, 2k7 is better than 07, but 07 is better than 2k7 on the other platforms..
