Thanks for posting this info guys. Good to hear there is a gaming magizine out there that can recognise qualtiy in other than slick graphics. I too will be keeping an eye on GGW from now on - I already knew Dominons rocks and now I know CGW know how to review.

Cheers

The CGW review is also a Editor Choice, they just accidentally didn't print it. We got a note from the editors yesterday. A retraction is forth coming.

Thank you for the congrats!

Editor's choice awards in two major magazines. Now I can retire happily. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Mmmm... looking forward to reading those reviews.

Re: Dom II gets "Editor\'s Choice" award in gaming mag
 

I am confused???? IS CGW and "Computer Games" two different magazines or are they the same??? I have "Computer Games" and the "Editor Choice" is printed on the review.. Also there is no article at the end about people playing the game?????

Re: Dom II gets "Editor\'s Choice" award in gaming mag
 

The other magazine is called Computer Gaming World.

Re: Dom II gets "Editor\'s Choice" award in gaming mag
 

Yes, Computer Games (aka CG), and Computer Gaming World (aka CGW) are similar magazines, both excellent, and often confused for each other. The CGW review (4.5 stars, by Bruce Geryk) is on page 67 of their Feb 04 issue (and a game between Bruce and Tom Chick is on pages 120-122 of the same issue), the CG review (4.5 stars, by Tom Chick) is on pages 82-83 of their Feb 04 issue. The CGW articles are what prompted me to download the demo, fall in love with the game almost instantly, order it a week ago, receive it 3 days ago and lose much sleep ever since. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

It doesn't help confusion-avoidance that Tom Chick, who's reviews I think are great, writes for both. He also lurks in these forums. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

CGW is was brought me here http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Now I have to get back to playing and see if I can figure it out.

Re: Dom II gets "Editor\'s Choice" award in gaming mag
 

I ran to 4 different software stores in my area after I recieved my CGW in the mail. The AAR actually made me really want this game. I really really wish they would let the readers know if we have to order it Online to get a particular game. It would have saved me a lot of gas money.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Good point. I think that right now I will call the local computer stores and let them know that in case they are getting pestered. All of us should.
