Game Asylum Reviews Prophecy Advance Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

GameAsylum is a UK news site that's the latest in a round of places reviewing Prophecy Advance. They're fairly impressed by the controls and graphics but left to wonder about the story. It's actually not a very long review. They give it a five out of ten, and good score or bad, I'd have appreciated a longer explanation of how they came to that score.
There are absolutely masses of levels, and each one is entertaining in its own right, but you're unlikely to want to play more than one or two in a sitting, such is their stark similarity. For filling gaps of up to fifteen minutes, it's ideal. For anything more substantial, avoid.
And you don't even play through all the levels in one playthrough!

Game Informer Reviews Prophecy Advance Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

And we've also got the review from the major US based magazine Game Informer. This is from the new August 2003 issue. As I was saying a few days ago, there hasn't been a whole lot of print attention paid to Prophecy Advance, so this review is a welcome addition. They often really hate a swath of the new GBA releases with scores in the 2 to 4 range, so thankfully Prophecy earned a 7 out of 10.

While the quality of the polygonal models bring back memories of the 386 processor, the fact that developer Raylight Studios was able to create convincing and enjoyable gameplay around it is an impressive feat. The dogfighting even includes a target assist icon, wingman commands and a handy radar.
Prophecy Advance looks better than anything on a 386, but he means well.

Totally Awesome Robert Rusler News Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

PeteyG let us know that he's nothing short of excited with the announcement that Robert Rusler, who played Seether in Wing Commander 4, will be appearing in an episode of Star Trek Enterprise.
The synopsis of the episode says, "Enterprise starts experiencing the effects of spatial distortions pervading the Delphic Expanse and falls victim to predatory aliens taking advantage of the crippling conditions." Rusler's character will be named Orgoth, and is the only 'alien' sounding guest character, so in my opinion, there is a strong possibility he will be a bad guy.
Sounds about right. You can find more at TrekToday here.
