OH>Have I missed the point? Has anyone really enjoyed this game? No, but I have read a short preview in a magazine while browsing in a bookshop. Iron Helix was not recommended. I'll actually subscribe a magazine that carries these kind of previews. The subscription is cheaper than the loss of $85... I have myself worthless junk lying around, therefore I won't buy anymore before reading a test report or seeing it for free! * OLX 2.1 TD * Hard DISK? Gee lady, I misunderstood you...
