Sarka Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I didn't my copy either. Surely they wouldn't delay a week just to get the MKDS review in, would they?

Battalion wars got 78% Mario Football got 79% Kirby Power Paintbrush got 90% Pokemon XD got 58% Mario baseball got 59% and theres some more reviews but i can be bothered to do the rest! :p

And Sonic Rush, boy o boy. XD only got a 59% for NOM... wow... it must be bad... It had better come tomorrow
RedShell Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 and theres some more reviewsDid they review Tony Hawks DS?Oh - and was there any free gift with it?
DazDude Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Did they review Tony Hawks DS?Oh - and was there any free gift with it? I beleive there was a Prima XD Guide free with it, haven't got my copy yet though.
Nintenchris Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 There is a little keyring that holds 2 DS games free also.. and i dont think they have a review of tony hawks ds in this issue
Android18a Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Pretty low 1st party scores, there. Sonic Rush is good news... I bet that Mario Kart score is overly generous, tho.
Locky Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Cheers for posting the scores cube_game. Have to pop out and buy a copy now!
The3rdChildren Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Why do we still buy gaming magazines when we have the Internet, guys?
Locky Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I work in publishing so much prefer having a magazine you can actually hold and keep rather than read onscreen, which I find a bit tiring on the eyes!
Android18a Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Why do we still buy gaming magazines when we have the Internet, guys? Because magazines still get exclusives - interviews, features and stuff. Okay, much of it probably IS out there somewhere, but can you really be bothered to find it all when you can just pop in and buy NGC or Cube? I'd love to see more interviews from NOM.
RedShell Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 i dont think they have a review of tony hawks ds in this issueThat's weird seeing as it's out on the 18th. By the way what did they have Sonic Rush's release date listed as, the 18th or 25th?

Kurtle Squad Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 They didn't have a Tony Hawks or Shadow the Hedgehog review!! What I don't get, is they seem to slag off Mazza Football, then give it a 79% and yet they praise Battalion Wars (appart from the replay value) and give it a 78% IGN gave Mario Baseball a higher score too, 7.9/10 (79% for idiots that can't count) unlike NOM's pathetic 59%....Maybe it's the culture difference, but for anybody thinking of getting it, I suggest you get a second opinion or something; I think NOM are trying to become some sort of slagger-offers because people get pissed off with them giving everything high scores.
RedShell Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 They have Sonic Rush down for the 25th.Cheers.Are the release dates in NOM usually accurate? Because I'm seeing so many conflicting dates for the game but I'm hoping it's coming out on the 18th, at least that’s what the mini site has it down for.
Nintenchris Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 I have no idea. Some sites like Game and Amazon have it down for the 18th but others like Gameplay have it down for the 25!?!?
Ysm Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Game and Gamestation have both been told 18th for sonic rush.
RedShell Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I hope Gameplay change it to the 18th soon.
Nintenchris Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 I hope Gameplay change it to the 18th soon. I just give a guy on there online help service some stick... asking them why they havent got it down for the 18th when Amazon, Game, Play.com and even sega themselfs ( http://www.sega-europe.com/en/Game/173.htm ) have!! I bet they look into it and change it later today!!

Kurtle Squad Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 At least Gameplay have a decent online service though
Sprout Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 It's nice to see that Mario Kart, Sonic Rush and Kirby have all recieved high scores. Will anything on DS beat the almost perfect Mario Kart? Only time will tell I suppose, and Animal Crossing isn't far off.
Mike Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Brilliant scores for Kirby and Mario Kart. Kirby certainly deserves it, and I hope I'll agree that MK does too. I'll look out for the magazine in the shops tomorrow.
