gamecube demo disc = yum.

While wandering round Target yesterday, found they had the new Gamecube demo disc on sale. Apparently, some stores won't sell it now, cos it's meant to come with a Gamecube system? Anyhow, Target had it, and it's great - here's a random review from XGR.com which talks about all the playable titles. Soul Calibur II is an exquisite fighting game, Billy Hatcher may be the best 3D game Sonic Team have ever done, Splinter Cell is efficiently converted, and Viewtiful Joe is some kind of crazed Japanese liquid crack conglomeration of a '2D gameplay with 3D graphics' cel-shaded platformer. Nice stuff. [Oh, and on a completely unrelated note, the new Pete Yorn album is delicious in a wonderfully traditional manner, much love for being an efficient rock taste arbiter, Holly.]
