GameSpy's Month in Review: March 2005
22:56 | by Evan March 2005 will definitely be a time to remember. First off, with 12 Editors' Choice games, six with five-star scores -- our largest batch of must-play, must-have games ever -- the month was second to none. In addition, we saw the U.S. release of Sony's sleek machine: the PSP. Given its rave reviews (from us and elsewhere), the new handheld is poised for longevity. Games, movies, music -- get one now! And finally, as the PS2 rolls into its twilight years, we were treated to its best game ever: God of War. Break out your gaming dollars. There's lots of goodness to spend it on.

Juiced Preview

The lines have definitely become clear in the racing genre. You've got simulations like Gran Turismo and Forza, street-racing titles like Need For Speed Underground, and all-out arcade racers like Burnout 3. Juiced is blurring those lines in an attempt to combine all driving-game elements under one hood. It's got speed, customization, and carnage -- along with a risk factor to make sure you don't write a check your butt can't cash. Check out our complete preview.

Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Preview
10:41 | by Evan
The first Midnight Club was one of the few nice surprises from the uninspired launch line-up of the PlayStation 2. Its blend of city cruising and racing, unique at the time, proved to be a potent combination. It was even more so in 2003's Midnight Club II, which added tons of content and excellent online play. Now, near the end of the current console cycle, Rockstar is completing its makeshift trilogy by taking the series for one final spin.
If what they've showed us so far is any indication, Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition could easily be the best of the three. In fact, it's so good that they had to switch the title from Roman to Arabic numerals. Wow! Head on over to GameSpy.com for our complete preview.
Shaq Attack Interview
10:32 | by Evan
Tracy Stevens over at IGN Sports had the privilege to sit down with the Shaq attack himself, Shaquille O'Neal, talking about all the good stuff from shoguns to ninjas to the Pythagorean Theorem, and oh yeah, basketball. Here's a taste:
IGN Sports: You talked about the young guys that are playing the center position that are the future of the game, which one of those guys out there right now has impressed you the most with their development?
Shaq: Amare. Somebody told me one time when I was in Phoenix that it was like an old me playing against a young me. I used to dunk, run the court and dunk, don't play no defense, and it was fun playing against him, I would have to say him.
