(This issue of VG&CE introduces a new review feature - the 'Editor's Corner.' Complimenting the usual long-form review, an Editor's Corner capsule is now included, displaying the scale-10 scores of four other reviewers, along with a very brief summation explaining some of these scores. 'Gaming On the Go' portable game reviews were the exception to this new feature. The cover of this issue features Sonic 2 hologram artwork.)
