Features
- E3 Report - Pages 56-63 - Report about E3, starts with a rather long worded article over 3 pages, within it, it mentions 3DO gets games like Daedalus Encounter, Ballz, BIOSFear and Cyberdillo. The article then breaks down each publisher on what they are working on:
-Absolute Entertainment Showing the ill fated Penn and Tellers Smoke and Mirrors (Featuring guests like Deborah Harry and Lou Reed) -American Laser Games had Space Pirates...and the unreleased Madison High -Crystal Dynamics only had Gex at the show -Domark showed off the never to be released Absolute Zero, a "Sci-Fi action game with flying elements" -EA Sports Foes of Ali and PGA were on show as was NHL Hockey -Electronic Arts were showcasing Psychic Detective, Space Hulk, ShreadFest, Wing Commander 3 and Shock Wave 2 - Gametek for 3DO had Quarantine and Air Cavalry which scored top E3 billing (I think Air Cavalry was a typo, the game was released for SNES around this time) - Goldstar were lining up 3DO games, but none mentioned - Interplay had Kingdom, Alone in the Dark 2, Waterworld and Casper - 3DO were showing of its infamous M2 unveiling - Studio 3DO had Bladeforce, Killing Time and The All New Peoples Game Show...which later got renamed to Zhadnost - Time Warner Interactive showed of Primal Rage on every platform

Reviews
Game Title | Publisher | Reviewer | Pages | Pg No(s) | Rating |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Gex | Crystal Dynamics | Tommy Gilde | 2 | 20-21 | 75% |
- Gex - Gex is one little lizard who really puts the FunFactor back into the platform-action genre. If more games like this were available for the 3DO, more people would own the system.
