clip: Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee
Lorne Lanning, Oddworld Inhabitants' Co-founder and President talks
about Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee -- How would you feel if you
broke your only leg in a bear trap, were abducted by soulless
scientists, had an alien device implanted in your skull, and found out
your race had been hunted to oblivion? That's right, you'd be mad as
hell ... and so is Munch, a one-legged amphibian with a song in his
heart and a plug in his head. He's the last of his kind and you need to
help him bring his species back from the brink of extinction. Oddworld:
Munch's Oddysee™ pits Munch and his clueless friend Abe™ against the
full might of Oddworld's corporate power brokers and their legions of
lackeys armed with the latest in addictive consumer weapons: Lungbuster
cigarette rifles, Blitzpacker brew repeaters and the SnUzi line of pill
blasting automatics.

clip: Malice
In Argonaut's Malice, you are Alice, a young heroine battling
through 30 fiendish levels, defeating the Fire God's nefarious cohorts
and gathering the magic skills she'll need to somehow shoehorn all the
Evils back into their box. Environments are set on fire, flooded, torn
apart and turned upside down as Alice learns to manipulate Wood, Water,
Metal, Earth and Fire, using bizarre and wondrous weapons like the Mace
of Clubs, the Clockwork Hammer and the Quantum Tuning Fork through
unique environments like the pyromaniacal Glowurm Kingdom, the world
drowning Fountain of Tears, an over-clocked Clockwork Maze, and the Iron
fortress-nests of the Crow Assassin Guild and their Fire God master,
hell bent on mutating any and every creature into an evil
counter-version of itself.

clip: WWF Raw is War
THQ's WWF Raw is War will raise the standard by which all video
games are measured, as The Rock, Chyna, and 35 other superstars are
thrown into your living room like never before. For the first time ever
opponents will be able to grab clothing, announcers will provide in-game
commentary on the fly, and audiences will scatter as the action spills
out of the ring and into the stands. All-new backstage combat areas
randomly change from venue to venue. Opponents can even be confronted on
their way to the ring. It's everything you've come to expect from the
wildly popular spectacle that is the WWF.
