Fellow game freaks! Sorry for the lack of updates. I have been working on OT like crazy getting our Tokyo game show demo ready to show. There are also so many good games out I have been side tracked. So bare with us news & updates will be soon and more regular till the next milestone. I will be removing some pages from the site GC, GBA, x-box and ps2 pages will be removed. All info for those systems will remain on the main jive page. Only two dedicated pages will run Pc-engine page and the neo-geo page. It's just too much to keep up with alone. So Bomber and I will be doing some major engine and neo page work!
Also Albert has received so much mail that needs updating!!!

I have backed up yet another four months of news and updates. Back up news can be found at the link below Archived news.
Finally finished Eternal Darkness and absolutely loved the game. The games story telling and ingenious design is unique and surprisingly quite entertaining. The first time I saw the game was at E3 '98 in Atlanta on the N64! So the dev team has had there time to tweak and polish the game. There are a couple annoying enemy encounters (that stupid bird thing that opens and closes) that are just stupid, but the game makes up for these elements with a story that keeps you wanting more. If you have not played eternal darkness check it out.
Christmas time is coming faster then a hamster without a wheel and you know what that means? We have to wait for games? But until then Acclaim’s XXX BMX game is looking HOT! The game is now mission based unlike the past Mira titles and will feature some of the hottest chicks with big hooters to boot! So get off your ASS and pick up this title when it hits stores mid November. Check back for more on this title in the following months until its release.
If the kids are busting your nubs while your trying to play some GTA 3 and your wife wants you to turn it off because because little Jimmy can't see daddy stealing a car. Pick up Scooby Doo for Gamecube and shut those kids up! This is the perfect solution for an excellent kids game or for anyone who loves Scooby Doo so check it!
GET ONLINE! With your PS2 This month get online with Socom or Twisted metal black online! The PS2 Broadband adaptor is out August 27th.
Sony announced a new PlayStation 2 game this morning that is currently known by the working title of Rise to Honor. The game will strive to mix realism with the cinematic stylings of Hong Kong action films and will star Jet Li, who has appeared in such films as The One, Lethal Weapon 4, and High Risk. Li will be motion-captured for the game, and the movement will be directed by Cory Yuen, who has choreographed fights in several of Jet Li's films.
Li will be cast in the role of Kit Yun, the bodyguard of a Hong Kong crime boss named Boss Chiang. After Chiang is assassinated, Yun is charged with the task of finding the crime boss' daughter in America and returning her to Hong Kong. Yun's journey will take him to San Francisco.
"Working with the Foster City Studio team to create a game for the PlayStation 2 has been an exciting experience--very different from making a movie," Li said. "The motion-capture system allows for extremely realistic movements, and, in addition, we were able to use a lot of actions in the game that we can't normally put in a film. The results in the final game should provide the player with a genuine feel for the action."
Rise to Honor is currently scheduled for a fall 2003 release.

The JIVE is really looking forward to this one!
