Late Night Consoling
Non-console comment: tonight's musical episode of Buffy was great...now only
if they were all letterboxed. Obligatory relevant console comment: golly, that
Xbox Buffy game sure looks great, doesn't it? I wonder if you'll be able
to burst into song...
- Yikes! We're down to the zero-hour on the Xbox launch, but Microsoft still isn't willing to say how many consoles they'll be able to ship. Regardless, they do say that they will have a million units by Christmas, so even if you don't get yours on launch day, it may arrive at a later date.
- Cube.IGN has updated their Soul Calibur II preview with new screenshots, character profiles and more.
- Two notable reviews are up at PS2.IGN tonight: first is Capcom vs. SNK 2, which they liked but weren't flat-out raving over, and second is SSX Tricky, which they liked a bit more, but still admit it's not a full sequel to the original SSX (and therefore may not be worth getting for those of us that own the first one).
- A whole lot of footage from the unfortunately named GBA FPS Ecks vs. Sever can be found at Pocket.IGN, along with an interview with the developers. This game really does look cool, but could they possibly have picked a less exciting name?
- IGN Gear has a look at the cool new Xbox cables from Monster Cable. These run rings around Microsoft's silly $30 adapters (on top of which you need actual cables).
- Good news for PS2 FPS fans (hey, there are some out there you know): Half-Life is shipping next week.
- And finally, the reviews are starting to come in from the GC and Xbox launch titles...here's GameSpot's review of Wave Race: Blue Storm. IGN has some Xbox reviews online, but they're only accessible to paid subscribers.
