Comments

I'm kind of disappointed in a couple things from MM9... First, all of the menus are cut off on the top for me. I've not had this problem with any other game so I don't know how it could be my TV.

And there seems to be some sort of sprite smoothing thing going on. I was hoping I could turn it off, but nope.

Game still seems fun, obviously, but these things are kind of annoying.

War World is ridiculously limited, you can't ge any feel for the game. Have to wait for the reviews.
