Looking for some new games to play with FMV style cutscenes a la Spiderman! Preferably games with multiple cutscenes between levels but in general is cool too!

Official US PlayStation Magazine reviewed Duke Nukem: Time To Kill in 1998 and had a Pros and Cons section for each review.

PROS

• Duke rocks
• Duke roams through realistic locations
• Duke's got loads of new moves

CONS

• Duke looks like crap
• Duke controls like crap
• Duke's seriously politically incorrect

Which magazine review still sticks with you as a memory all this time later?

Deciding between getting something like a big stand you'd see at a grocery store (or for nostalgia's sake back in the day, Media Play) or one of those that you can spin and has several on display in a vertical appearance like THIS or THIS. Is there perhaps an additional option I may be overlooking that worked best for you?

I have about 12-15 magazines at the moment where I would love to be able to display the front covers of each. Perhaps even a budget version of THIS one? This has been my passion project for the year that I keep putting off so I'd love some takes from gaming magazine enthusiasts who have done something similar.

I recall seeing a commercial for the PS2 in a movie theater ahead of the previews in 2002. Does anyone else recall seeing this back then?

Those were the days!

What was your midnight launch experience like and did they have any offerings?

Manager aka owner of a popular burger spot in the state had been using Sysco for deliveries since they opened over a decade ago. The amount of times that we saw boxes left outside, utensils delivered in place of the bacon we actually ordered, late deliveries, failure to pick up crates and much more just piled on over the years. The final straw for the owner was when the Sysco delivery guy dropped off our order and called out the owner for "not taking care of him" since this was during the holiday season. Owner told me to shut the door and I don't know what he said to the guy, but he ended up discontinuing with Sysco. Not sure what they're using nowadays since I'm no longer there, but it got me wondering if this all happened to anyone else.

Whether it was on launch day, for the holidays or whenever in 2001, I am curious as to which games you all got in the last two months of the year!

First one that comes to mind is Cheetahmen from Action 52 where they were being marketed as the next Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles phenomenon but due to the failure that was Action 52, all plans went kibosh.

Which other games come to mind that were going to be a franchise launching pad but ultimately went nowhere?

With the context of two new seasons now, perhaps it's time to update the intro and give it a more modern setting rather than going from the original timeline to Saudi Arabia and then back home? How would you envision an updated intro to the update being like?

It was pretty distracting that they were so grey to the point they were nearly purple.

Was looking forward to seeing him cover E3 2002 and Sonic Adventure and beyond but it seems like other than Mario Party, he just abruptly ended those? His main channel is basically set up for quarterly sitcom movies now whereas the Stash is his hand showing us random stuff but I'm kinda bummed how he just abandoned his original timelines and now it's kinda chaos.
