This month’s issue of your favorite magazine has a big feature on the “Most Anticipated Games of 2007”. Usual fare for this point in the publishing cycle, right? Well, no other magazine will have a bus driving simulation on their list, which is one more reason to listen to Steve’s editorial plea to spread the good word about CGM. (Seriously, though. Listen to the man. No other mainstream outlet publishes reviews of wargames as often as CGM. And I’m sure they get no end of grief about it.)<\/p>\n
Not a lot of reviews this month, but some very strong content all around. Good columns in every section, an interesting preview of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.<\/em> and a Game Preview Madlib that looks distressing similar to things I have written over the years.<\/p>\n My contributions are a book length review of Medieval II: Total War<\/em>, a Revisionist History look at Centurion: Defender of Rome<\/em> and my usual Alt.Games colum (Travian, Virtual Villagers<\/em> and Aquaball<\/em>.) <\/p>\n Find it hidden in a newstand somewhere far from where you live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This month’s issue of your favorite magazine has a big feature on the “Most Anticipated Games of 2007”.
