Not change IE? NOT CHANGE IE? Are you kidding, we're constantly changing IE. Ask our Technical Director! He loves it when I come in two days before the disk goes to the manufacturer and say "Let's move all the buttons to the other side of this menu here." You should see his face! Har! I love doing that stuff to him!
Seriously though, IE is in a constant state of gradual change. You'll note we're including more demos and tightening up the articles. The full text versions of the articles are way more in-depth than they used to be. We're changing the button sound (you'd be surprised at how many people hate that button sound)! The main menu has changed with this issue.
We're always adding new things and throwing out old stuff. For instance, this will probably be the last letters to the editor column on the CD. It seems silly to have one on the disk and one in the paper mag, so we'll just put IE letters in the Rebound column in Computer Games. Also, this month marks the last installment of 3DOpinions. Sorry 3DO owners (hey, I'm one of you) but the software is just drying up for the machine and there isn't that much to say anymore.
On the other hand, we've added the Archives, which is a collection of the text version of select IE reviews since Episode 0. The search engine is still a bit flaky, but we'll fix that. Also, when the time comes the slot now occupied by 3DO will probably (now I said -probably-) be taken up by a month Ultra64 article.
So as IE continues to mutate, please keep us informed. If we axe your favorite bit, give us hell. If we add something you think is really cool, we'd like to hear that, too. Listener feedback is extremely important to us - without your input, we'll never know if we're heading in the right direction.
