Football. Space. Guns. Interested? Download demos of Championship Manager 99/00, Star Trek: Hidden Evil and Delta Force 2. They're mint! Latest additions to the Hints and Tips database include System Shock 2 on PC, UEFA Striker on PlayStation, Ready 2 Rumble on N64 and NBA2K on Dreamcast. We've also got patches and updates for all the latest games.

With the end of the millennium fast approaching, votes have been flying in to the Future Gamer Chat Forum, and respect due to 100% cotton for hosting the 'event'. Apparently the Best Game award goes to Final Fantasy VIII, one of the least bizarre nominations. SD-Snatcher on the MSX got 3.71% of the share - probably due to Kaneda cheating and sending multiple votes under different names. What a tool. The most anticipated machine was, predictably, the PlayStation2.

It hasn't all been voting though this week though, as the regulars tried to keep everyone interested. "Guess That Game" has now reached the 25 mark, which just about puts it on par with the number of sequels EA will churn out of their sports division this Christmas. Hiryu seems to have an uncanny knack of getting every single one of these quizzes right too, the keener! Kev asked who worked in the games industry, and Wolfchild and Clam responded but wouldn't give much away, for fear of suddenly not working in the games industry. Finally, Ben asked the Forum whether or not Andy Smith was actually a god. Opinion was definitely split on this one, although Mr Smith himself declared that he's "more of a dick".
