Hexagons, everywhere. They invaded your mind and haunted your dreams. Everyone that owns an Xbox 360 HDD knows what I am talking about. Hexic is back and it is ready to torture you with images of rotating shapes and black pearls. The sequel has much needed (?) online multiplayer and fun new modes. I love Pajitnov, so buy, buy, buy! Ecco the Dolphin is here to extend the excellently presented Sega collection in the arcade. If you love dolphins, this is for you.



Virtual console gets a truly classic title after a few weeks of mediocrity. Metroid is a very good game. It will tide you over until the real Metroid comes out. In other news, some other random games are out.

Xbox Live Arcade:
- Ecco the Dolphin (400)
- Hexic 2 (800)

Wii Virtual Console:
- Metroid (NES, 500)
- Shining in the Darkness (Genesis, 800)
- Cratermaze (Turbografx, 600)
