Force 21 - out now in the shops

Force 21 - Out now in the shops
Issue 46 - September 23, 1999
 
This Week at FG
We've had a goal disallowed...

So we put the latest build of UEFA Striker into the PlayStation, hit the power button and waited with sweaty palms. And we waited. And then we waited some more. And then we pressed reset and waited with sweaty palms and a slightly furrowed brow. Yes! The fancy intro bit... waiting... language selection... come on... nothing. So we called Infogrames with tears in our eyes, only to be informed that there's no problem with the disc. We checked that the disc wasn't in upside down or anything daft. Nope, everything was fine. Then the killer blow: "You are using a blue PlayStation, aren't you?" said the nice man on the other end of the phone. "AAAAAARGH!" Football denied! Oh well, guess we'd better play some more Homeworld on the PC then...
