ey,
welcome back to loonygames.
We've
got a ton of great stuff for you, including our spectacular cover
by Kenneth Scott (woo!) and of course, our great interview with
Paul Steed.
I feel
I should point out what a great job Rowan Crawford has been doing
arranging these covers. All the covers for Volume 2 so far have
been fantastic, and Rowan's the guy who set 'em all up. Look at
the great run we've had so far: Chris
Greenhaw, Illiad, Francis
Tsai, Dhabih Eng, and geez...now
Kenneth Scott. Whee! Look for some
more spectacular covers in the weeks to come.
We've
got plenty of other great stuff for you this week, including Josh
Vasquez' look at Dino Crisis in Pixel Obscura (after his
scathing review of Resident Evil 3, I can't wait to read
this one myself), a brand new Pad Happy, a new Behind the Curtain,
a new Down the Pipe, Rich Wyckoff (the uber-Ultima fan)
looks at Ultima IX: Ascension in Beaker's Bent, and boy...even
more. Look for all that in the days to come.
Have you
been reading our new comic strip Real Life?
If you haven't I highly recommend it. It's a blast and a half,
and it's daily, which means there's always a new strip there when
you want one. Between RL and User Friendly, we're pretty set with
daily strips here for a bit. :)
(Although,
I should point out that we're always looking for new stuff. Comics,
writers, artists, everything. If you'd like to join us, drop
me a line. I'm sure we could use you!)
I'm going
to have to end this week's edition here, kids...but next week
I'll be back with a rundown of all the games I'm playing at the
moment, including Ultima IX, Unreal Tournament,
Quake III Arena, Outcast, jeez...the list goes on.
Until
then, stay loony!
