Jimmy White's Snookered

Dear Future Gamer

Nobody seems to have heard about the bug in Dreamcast Jimmy White's: Cueball where saving your game or statistics doesn't actually work properly. This means you're unable to save your progress or highest breaks, etc, and in a phone call to the helpline I was told that I either have to take the game back to shop for a refund or wait until the end of February, then ring them back when a new version may be available which I can then swap my version for. Does anyone test these games any more?

FG: I've received several letters on this subject so we got on to Virgin to find out the score. Apparently the game's bugged. It was noticed before the game was duplicated, but doh! They dup'ed the wrong version. A fully working version of the game will indeed be available soon so you'll be able to exchange your bugged copy for a version that works. Bet someone's looking sheepish at Virgin these days.

Got an opinion or a question? Write to me at andy.smith@futurenet.co.uk...
