1998 was a heck of a year for video games. Everybody knows this. This was the year that the first Unreal came out, but Epic wasn't just working on 3D stuff. This 2D sequel came out in the very same year and nobody really remembers.

Humans, Lizards and Beavers working together to defeat the tyranny of nature! ... and do a bit of baking. Zac puts on a poncho and tries to explain to Rob and Dan how you too can be Against The Storm.

Wipeout got an entry on the N64. You could have guessed that from the title. It's pretty much Wipeout XL / 2097 but not quite. More importantly it's the third anti-gravity racing game Rob remembers playing.

Bit of a corrections column needed for this one: Sony wasn't stopping Psygnosis from doing what they wanted to do at this point in time. That all stopped with Wipeout 3 though. Wipeout 64 was indeed Psygnosis developed and not by a mysterious extra party. The tracks are modified, mirrored versions of tracks from the previous Wipeout games with new skins. It's hard to tell though.

F-Zero made the jump to true 3D in this N64 classic. Rob gushes to Dan about an absolute gem whilst doing some Grand Prix races (including the X cup), surviving a Death Race and enjoying some squeedlies.

Back on the Steam A-Z and we're still visiting some F's. Full Metal Furies is a co-op, beat-em-up adjacent, good time as two bizarrely named squad mates shall demonstrate.
