What a month June is going to be! Starting with Virtual On, the titles
due out these few weeks just ooze quality. In fact with over 20 games
due out we've had to split the 'Games Of June' feature over two parts,
and cut out the news round-up for this week. With so many ace games to
choose from we hope this feature does help you choose the real cream of
the crop though.

This issue really does revolve around that feature, although we've still
got more to read. Gameshark codes for Crazy Taxi and Dead Or Alive 2,
Q&amp;A on Bleemcast, and news that Metropolis SR has been delayed till
September.

Until next week then Happy Gaming, and remember, The Game Is Never Over!

HOT QUOTE from this issue: "If I had to sum up June of 2000 in one
word, Wow!"

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Games For June 2000
     - Written by Tails

If I had to sum up June of 2000 in one word, Wow! So many titles are due
out this month, and what a way to start it... Virtual On: OT, Space
Channel 5, and Gauntlet Legends. Hope you've been saving up. But for
most gamers it's a hard choice which titles to buy. Which is why here we
give some pre-release thoughts on each title due out in June 2000.

Part 2 coming next week.

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Games already released this month:

-- Virtual On: Oratorio Tangram
-- Industrial Spy: Operation Espionage
-- Bust-A-Move 4

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Gauntlet Legends - Wednesday 7th
    /- $44.99
    - Players: 1-4
    /- Genre: RPG/Fighting

Chances are if your a regular visitor to an arcade you have seen, and
were more than likely impressed by, Midway's mixture of RPG and combat
known as Gauntlet Legends. But if you haven't been sucked into the world
of magic, demons, swords and puzzles, now is a good time to read up on
the title.

For starters this makes for an excellent multiplayer game. There's
nothing quite like fighting to save the world with three of your best
mates at your side. But even if it's just you, there's plenty to keep
you busy. From sub-quests to building up your characters experience
and levels. Then you can save your character, and use it from the start
of your adventure again, adding a healthy dose of replayability to the
arcade conversion.

Along with new levels, improved graphics, secret characters, extra
power-ups and more, the Dreamcast version of Gauntlet Legends is far
improved over the original. In fact it includes all the additions to
the newest coin-op version, Gauntlet Dark Legacy. All this makes for a
title worth buying for any adventure fan. As for everyone else, don't
let this one go by un-noticed.

-- Anticipation 8/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Space Channel 5 - Wednesday 7th
    /- $39.99
    - Players: 1
    /- Genre: Dancing

Teysuya Mizuguchi's highly original Dreamcast game is ready to hit
the states. Including all new voice overs, which are surprisingly
the best Sega Of America has done to date, it's hard to go wrong
buying this title. Hence the promotions stores are running. They know
your going to buy Space Channel 5, but want you to buy it at their
shop. So free soundtracks, t-shirts, stickers, and quite possibly
other giveaways are the order of the day. Many are only available
to those who pre-order the game, but check the details with your
local game store, and see what they have to offer you.

Space Channel 5 is just one of those games you know is a winner just
by reading the games highlights. Starting with a soundtrack that
could be considered as one of the best in gaming history, it also
changes based on how you perform throughout the levels. Next is a
super sexy space reporter coming to you live from the 25th century.
Don't be surprised if Ulala is battling it out with the likes of
Lara Croft in your dreams that night.

Then there's the simple controls, using just the d-pad and two
buttons. If you think that might be a little too simple for you, the
same person who just spent hours mastering Virtual On, the system
actually makes for an instantly playable title and a great party
game.

Overall this is a game that can't be missed, and while it certainly
won't provide you with the lastability some other titles offer, it
really is an experience that every gamer can enjoy.

-- Anticipation 9/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Super Magnetic Neo - Wednesday 14th
    /- $44.99
    - Players: 1
    /- Genre: Platform

So you've clocked Rayman 2, burnt out the sneakers on Sonic Adventure,
and are looking to what's next in the platform genre. Someone suggests
the Japanese title Super Magnetic Neo, and while it doesn't instantly
appeal like the two former mentioned games, it is worth taking a look
at.

The game is no doubt going to be compared to Crash Bandicoot in reviews,
and true, it does have more in common with the Australian platform star
than Sonic or Mario titles. But the 2.5D view that much of Super
Magnetic Neo uses is where the similarity ends. Neo, the star of this
adventure is actually a giant magnet to begin with. You can switch his
polarity between positive and negative to complete such tasks as
defeating enemies. Each enemy has a weakness to one charge.

Super Magnetic Neo is a solid attempt at a platform game for the
Dreamcast, and with action running at 60fps, nice graphics, and original
gameplay this could quite possibly be a sleeper hit for 2000. One
comment you should be aware of before playtesting or reading people's
first impressions however is the game has a steep learning curve. Don't
let the cute factor make you think completing this title is going to be
a breeze.

-- Anticipation 7/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Caesars Palace 2000 - Wednesday 14th
    /- $44.99
    - Players: 1-4
    /- Genre: Simulation

Not much could be found on this title, although the title is the latest
in Interplay's gambling series. Caesars Palace is the virtual casino,
including games such as Craps, Blackjack, Roulette, Slots, Video Poker,
Mini-Baccarat, Keno, and Poker Challenge.

If you really enjoy Casino's, this is the only title on the Dreamcast
for you. But for most people however, the $50 is almost (almost?)
certainly better spent somewhere else.

-- Anticipation 3/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Ominkron: The Nomad Soul - Wednesday 14th
    /- $44.99
    - Players: 1
    /- Genre: Adventure

This is the second time this title has been pushed back by around a
month. Will it finally hit the shelves in June? Perhaps, but I wouldn't
bet on it to be honest.

The PC version was released last October, it impressed all and received
good reviews, and now Dreamcast owners have a chance to experience
Omikron: The Nomad Soul. For those who enjoyed the adventure of Soul
Reaver: Legacy Of Kain, Omikron sounds even better. The title adds a
touch of the fighting and shooting genres to the adventure mix, which
while risky actually works really well.

Another feature to put the game up above Soul Reaver is the Virtual
Reincarnation system. When your character dies, your soul can move
directly into the first person who touches your body. This adds a whole
new element to in-game puzzles, and is essential for getting past
certain points in the title. Finally another high selling point includes
an original music score from David Bowie, which sets the atmosphere just
right.

-- Anticipation 8/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Nightmare Creatures 2 - Wednesday 14th
    /- $44.99
    - Players: 1
    /- Genre: Adventure

I have to admit there are always a few games that slip past, and I don't
know much about them at all. Nightmare Creatures 2 was one of those. Now
I've checked out the screens, and read the previews however, I'm
certainly grossed out! Excellent.

Nightmare Creatures 2 looks great, and is certainly not for the younger
gamer. Starring Herbert Wallace, a mutilated walking corpse wrapped up
like a mummy, and holding a blood stained axe! The object being to
make your way through the levels, in the hope of getting revenge on the
evil scientist that made him what he is today.

Battles are the heart of the game, as you fight against creatures which
really are the deepest, darkest of nightmares. When you win, usually
achieved by body parts flying across the room, and blood spraying all
over the place, it's on to find your next victim.

But will all this gore amount to a game worth buying? As the excitement
of reading about Nightmare Creatures 2 dies off, it's a question many
will be asking. Check out reviews around the middle of this month for
an answer.

-- Anticipation 7/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Street Fighter III: Double Impact - Thursday 15th
    /- $34.99
    - Players: 1-2
    /- Genre: Fighting

Known as Street Fighter III: W Impact in Japan, Capcom's latest in the
home series of Street Fighter titles is due to arrive in the US this
month. But what makes this the game to purchase over all other fighters
on the Dreamcast?

The $34.99 price tag helps, and the game has several improvements over
other versions of Street Fighter III. Many found cheap ways to defeat
opponents in the previous games, and random button pressers like myself
had an unfair chance against those who had practiced for hours on end.
But with Double Impact Capcom has fixed all that, and evened out the
game as a whole.

Other nice points are the almost non-existent loading times, fixing of
the pixelalted graphics again in previous titles, a training mode, and
a few other hidden extras as you'd expect. But having said all this,
Double Impact isn't a leap forward for the fighting genre, and with all
the original titles due out this month, unless your a hardcore SF fan
it might be wiser to look at other titles to spend your money on.

-- Anticipation 6/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Tech Romancer - Friday 16th
    /- $29.99
    - Players: 1-2
    /- Genre: Fighting

Another Capcom fighter due out this month (and another delayed by
several months), but with all the other titles, it's going to be a hard
time deciding just which to spend your hard earned cash on. Which brings
us to a high point about Tech Romancer, retailing for just $29.99.

Now the question has to come, why so cheap? Well Tech Romancer is a very
little known arcade title, even though it's Capcom's most original
fighter from them in a long time. To begin with their are 12 robots to
select from (yep no humans in this game), but the gameplay is really
where the new additions come in.

To begin with if you win the first round of a fight, your health doesn't
recover like the loser of the battle. Even though damage does repair
after some time, it leads to some interesting new strategy's. Add in a
totally new control scheme, power-ups, armor, and interactive
backgrounds, and what you have is a seriously fun fighter that's worth
checking out.

-- Anticipation 7/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Draconus: Cult Of The Wyrm - Wednesday 21st
    /- $49.99
    - Players: 1
    /- Genre: Action

With Nightmare Creatures 2 and Ominkron: The Nomad Soul being released
earlier this month, you'd think gamers would have already had their fill
of the horror genre. But Crave is going to take a shot with Draconus:
Cult Of The Wrym anyway.

In a similar vain to Soul Reaver, the object of this title is to make
your way through each level hacking 'n slashing up everything that
moves, from trolls to skeleton warriors. And with the spells and
weapons you can use to achieve your goal, it seems Draconus is an
adventure worthy of your time and money. The dark and almost movie-like
atmosphere draws you in to the games world, and the promised 15 levels
of battles should be enough to keep any action/fighting fan pleased.

-- Anticipation 7/10

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; South Park Rally - Wednesday 21st
    /- $49.99
    - Players: 1-4
    /- Genre: Racing

To date South Park games haven't had the greatest of success. Chefs
Luv Shack was disappointing to say the least, and while it did contain
some of the humor from the show, the gameplay just didn't cut it. So
now with South Park Rally due for release, and the voice talents of
Terry Parker, Matt Stone and Isaac Hayes backing it up, is this a
licensed game worthy of your $49.99?

To be honest this is going to be a choice best left till after reading
the reviews. On one hand the game contains all the right stuff to make
a fun and even hilarious title, but on the other hand if the gameplay
wasn't up to scratch, all the swearing and fat cartman jokes in the
world couldn't make South Park Rally a hit.

This was the worries of every gamer who played the title at last months
E3 show. With enough modes, tracks (over 30), characters, and insane
attacks to keep a party going for hours, South Park Rally is a game
that sounds brilliant on paper. But when your actually playing it, your
cart goes all over the place. Maybe it's just a steep learning curve,
or maybe the controls have been changed. I have to suggest reading the
reviews before picking up this one.

personally to all the e-mails, but the best questions will be selected
weekly and then answered here.

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Sega Gameboy Advance Games?

Q) 1) Have Sony and Sega objected to Bleemcast yet? Sony were against
      the PC release and have made numerous attempts to stop it, but
      surely Bleemcast will work in Sony's favour, increasing original
      Playstation sales. Have Sega announced that it will be an official
      release or will it be an independent, non-endorsed release?

   2) With all the in-house development teams having become more
      independent, will this mean they will also be able to produce games
      for other systems? I think developing for the Gameboy Advance would
      be a great idea, if Nintendo allowed it, considering how many Sega
      classics could be ported, the Gameboys unrivaled popularity and it
      wouldn't be in direct competition with the Dreamcast.

   3) I heard a rumor in a chat room that Sega were producing, in
      conjunction with NEC an WAP mobile phone that also operated like a
      VMU, allowing people to download and play various games on it, which
      would be extremely cool. Is this true? Thanx and keep up the good
      work ^_^ - solid_ichelma.

A) 1) Sega haven't said anything, but I imagine they are smiling. Sony
      however are not happy, but they can't stop Bleem from shipping.

   2) This is a very common question put to Sega's development teams.
      The reply has been along the lines that they could develop for
      other consoles, but why would they? All the teams remain very loyal
      to their parent, Sega. I wouldn't mind if they developed for the
      Gameboy Advance however, and as you said it wouldn't compete with
      the Dreamcast. Perhaps we'll see something like that in the future.

   3) News on a phone not all too different from what you mentioned has
      been announced this week. The news is on Sega X at...
      <a href="http://www.segadreamcast.net/news/2000/june/05l_mobile.shtml">http://www.segadreamcast.net/news/2000/june/05l_mobile.shtml</a>

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Is The Dreamcast Going Down Like A Saturn?

Q) 1) Hello Firstly you mag is great and secondly I recently heard that
      Sega's president resigned and sega had suffered a loss of millions
      of dollars over the past year. Does this mean that the Dreamcast
      is going the way of the Saturn. I am a great fan of sega and I hate
      the Playstation...

   2) Say recently you were saying that sega and sony are losing out a
      couple of bucks on every console sold. Say if the are losing money
      how do they manage to recover from this loss. I think if they
      raise the prices by a few dollars it would not have much affect on
      us. - "plgr"

A) 1) Yes Sega's president has resigned from his job and is now working
      on development of the next Sega console. The Dreamcast however is
      still going strong, just have a look at this years line-up. But
      that success hasn't happened in Japan, and they lost quite a bit of
      money for the third year in a row. Here's hoping things look up
      this year for Japan with games like Grandia 2 and Phantasy Star
      Online.

   2) A small price rise would have quite an effect on customers. Sega
      makes it's money back without any trouble, as gamers buying a
      Dreamcast always buy some software. There's no choice. That's not
      the case with the Playstation 2, who people often buy just to play
      DVDs.
