  • Issue 195 Feb 98 - Mention of how M2 was one of the biggest disappointments in 1997 (Page 7)
  • Issue 196 Mar 98 - Street Fighter Collection Playstation/Saturn Review - "It's the first time that Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo has been available on a console (other than the surprisingly good 3DO version which nobody bought because nobody had the machine)" (Page 56)
  • Issue 198 Apr 98 - Help Playstation Review - "Finally there's the 3DO's finest hour - Road Rash. This motorbike beat-'em-up was already old by the time it arrived on the PlayStation, and that was a couple of years ago." (Page 72)
  • Issue 199 May 98 - Preview of the Katana (Dreamcast) Games Show - "Remember 02, Warp's super-fancy adventure that was originally destined for Matushita's M2 console then moved over to Katana? Well, the Japanese developers are expected to be previewing the game on the new Sega hardware at their Japanese HQ on May 19th." (Page 10)
  • Issue 200 Jun 98 - Return Fire 2 PCCD Preview - "Return Fire was one of the few decent games to appear on the 3DO, so we welcome Electronic Arts' sequel with open arms and - mmm - slavering lips." (Page 80)
