Issue one hundred and sixty-nine (??) of PC Zone is out in the UK, and contains much that will be of interest to readers of the Mojo.
Like, for instance, their belated Bone review! Sixty seven per cent they gave it, though it should be noted that their rating system is more harsh than most; fifty per cent is average, not mediocre, and a score of sixty seven is thus not embarrassing in the least. In fact, Dreamfall got the very same score on the opposite page.
Also included is a piece about the LucasArts logo, though writer Will Porter seems to have been overcome with nostalgia before he?d had a chance to say anything meaningful. Marry me!
Oh, and before I forget: the most interesting piece of news from the magazine! Psychonauts won "funniest game ever" with a landslide victory. Check out their forum post and have your say with a vote.
Also: Telltale's CSI game was given 62%, and is reportedly at number 12 on the sales charts.
The discussion was a bit of a farce really, with Sam & Max being forgot about and Garry's Mod and Counter-Strike being considered. Armed & Dangerous was only mentioned.
As for that Bone score, I think Will was a little bit harsh. I mean, just look at the quote for the pic at the top - that image is two seconds before Fone Bone starts throttling Phoney!
I thought the Bone games were pretty funny, though.
