AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING THESE DAYS, ZOOL?
Times may well be quite hard for hedgehogs, but we don’t exactly live in a world that’s overrun by ninja fucking ants, either, do we?

Zool… Now that was a BAD game.
Even worse than Sonic.

Sad to see the mag go though. I know a few of the editorial staff and they’re all really good lads.
I’m sure they’ll all do well in McDonalds.

Ah, they’ll probably be able to dine out a few times on their stories of what it was like working with Charlie Brooker, won’t they?

Ahhh, the good old days… Back when everyone thought they could come up with the next platform mascot by taking a random animal and giving it “attitude”.
These days it’s all about designing a character that looks like Ralph Moat. It’s somewhat amusing to think that Duke Nukem was parodying modern games characters before they even existed…
I’m sure RoboCod 2 will be a Dreamcast 2 launch title.

“…everyone thought they could come up with the next platform mascot by taking a random animal and giving it “attitude”.”
Well, that certainly seems to explain Knuckles, Shadow, etc, etc…
