I believe I can fly, and you will too if you download the demo of Jane's USAF. Honestly, we've never seen such realistic graphics - breathtaking stuff. If planes aren't your thing, you could do a lot worse than downloading Pharaoh and Tachyon: The Fringe. A right pair of corkers, make no mistake. Get them all by clicking here. Latest additions to the Hints and Tips database include Jagged Alliance 2 on PC, WCW Mayhem on PlayStation, Tonic Trouble on N64 and NFL2K on Dreamcast. We've also got patches and updates for all the latest games.

Just imagine, next week you could be reading Future Gamer on your telly via a Dreamcast. As such, the Future Gamer Chat Forum should have been dominated by the excitement surrounding the little white box. However, as we're sure Sony intended, PS2 talk has risen to top priority again this week. MrKevin is certainly enthusiastic about it... maybe a little too enthusiastic. Sony were also involved in threads this week, following the passing of founder Akio Morita. Without him, the Walkman, Discman and the PlayStation would never have existed. Chris opened up the usual "Game of the Month" thread, which produced a predictable response - Homeworld, C&C Tiberian Sun, WWF Attitude and, rather bizarrely, Rhubarb. Guess that poor fella got the wrong forum - Alan Titchmarsh can be found at the BBC's site.

Gaz enquired about Babylon 5's release date, only to have his dreams of controlling the alien with the dodgy Russian accent shattered as it's been cancelled. The best thread of the week, however, goes to Zedd-x81, who's having various problems with his system. He upgraded his Girlfriend v7.0 to Wife v1.0, which has caused a child processing procedure, as well as taking up valuable resources. "Football v10.0, Poker v8.3 and Going Down the Pub With Mates v4.6 are no longer compatible with my system," he sobbed. When he asked the Forum regulars for advice, the resounding response was to get hold of the beta version of Steamy Affair v1.0.
