Features
- The Heat Has Been Turned Up to High for the Next Mega Man Installment! – Mega Man X3 might be a little frustrating to gamers at first. However, after reading this issue’s 16-page strategy guide on the game, MM fans will have no problem battling the bad guys and finding cool items. Everything to help a stressed-out gamer has been included – from how to defeat the Bosses to maps on the various levels. Unlike the prequel, this version has several mechs that actually have a purpose, strategy, unique control as well as set abilities. You’ll learn how to use them all in this guide, too.
- A Bit of Comic-Book Heaven Comes to the Arcades with Marvel Super Heroes! – If you thought Capcom’s X-Men was a fantastic game, be prepared to be blown away by Marvel Super Heroes. The Infinity Gems have been added to this game, giving it a unique twist. Although the game is still under construction, EGM 2 has a six-page blowout on this quarter-muncher. Check out your favorite superheroes’ super combos, such as Spider-Man’s Maximum Spider, Wolverine’s Weapon X, Captain America’s Final Justice and Hulk’s Gamma Crush. In addition to super combos, other devastating moves are listed.
- The Latest and Possible Greatest MK Hits Arcades with New Moves and Modes! – As Mortal Kombat 3 hits the home market, fans of the once-cult game will find an awesome, brand-new update – Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. This isn’t a completely new release; however, it will feature four new characters as well as four unique backgrounds. In the Mortal Kombat tradition, there will also be plenty of new moves and secrets. EGM 2 digs into the latest addition with numerous exclusive pix and the latest look at this soon-to-be arcade hit!
