Letters

  • Who you calling Crap (Page 21):

Dear CVG,

As you can see, there's no stupid questions here like "when's N64 coming out" as it's Otf\ obvious you'll tell us as soon as you know! And please, I want Paul

answering my questions - not crap

Tom. I learned I don't get everything

I want after 1 didn't win the lottery,

so I just hope you print my letter!

1. What's all this about M2 and © Tom: Crap? Sega? Is it that Matsushita are mak- ing a 64-bit machine and Sega are

helping and making an upgrade for the Saturn? I hope so!

2. When will the new Sonic platform game make it to the Saturn?

3. Will that new pull-out section in your mag be a permanent feature?

4. Those pictures of VF3 last month. Are they going to be the graphics on the actual Saturn game? No, they can't be. ..can they?

5. When you said Sega may launch a new control pad with the new Saturn, does that mean that white pad you features last month or an all-new pad design? I'm not that bothered, but it would

be nice. Cheers Eeers!!! Gavin B, Scotland

CVG: 1. No. Apparently Sega's R&D boys didn't rate the M2 hardware.

2. See the E3 report this issue.

3. Too right - it's something we wanted to do from the start.

4. Those are arcade screenshots, but Yu Suzuki says the graphics on the finished game will look even better!

5. More news on the N64-style controller can be found in the E3 report.
