bad-mouth it now, but they unlike most review sources have given respect to shinobi and contra...not to mention the other review surprises this month are suikoden III(9.5, 9.25) and Steel Battalion (9.5, 8.75)...at least some source is showing support...

That feature had one of the worst layouts I have ever seen, its was at the level of a GI from like 1994. Stupid magazine.

So you're on an deserted island and the mailman can only deliver you one magazine to your island for the rest of your life, do you get gamepro, or GI?
Yes, it has to be one of those two.

GI does get slight props for having a classic review/strategy section at the end of their magazine and they don't always review "obvious" classic games (i.e. super mario bros, contra, ninja gaiden, ect...)

I still laugh at the Contra: SS review in GI. They had Contras all over their Top 100 list a few months back, and they liked Contra: SS. ANY YET, THEY POOPED ALL OVER METAL SLUG X!!!!!!!

Makes no sense at all...

I have a GI subscription. A year's worth of issues for $10? Eh, why the hell not? Only real problems with them are that a) they're still too juvenile, probably worse than EGM and b) sometimes I think their scores are too high. The magazine is really just a sales vehicle for GameStop.

Regardless, I need to take the quiz... I'm sure I'm a "dweeb".

I don't have the issue. one fo you should post the quiz.

The quis is awfully big- a tough post. The answer key alone is huge
