Noteworthy Stuff:

A massive 53% of gamers voted for Square as the company they most trust to put out quality games, beating out Konami (18%), Capcom (11%), EA (8%) and Namco (10%) respectively in a PSM-related poll.
Big Air Snowboarding and Rushdown each merit a 1.5 / 5 in this issue. Ouch.
Is that a typo I spot, PSM? In your Dino Crisis preview, of all places? For shame...
For all the requests they get to increase the size of international section, they sure seem to have a hard time deciding what to do with it.
Looks like Sony's stopped selling the Yaroze dev kits by this point, according to the Letters section.
