    This Day in Gaming, September 1st

    1999: Konami releases Hybrid Heaven for N64. It's an RPG with a 3D engine that we don't know enough about to unfairly pigeonhole. Any readers want to do our job for us? Seriously. Login: MarkWilson Pass: isthecoolestthingever6969

    1999: The 3DO Company releases Heroes of Might and Magic III: Armageddon's Blade in US for PC. My golden years of drinking an mindless fornication called: they want their college years back. Can I sue a developer for making a game - I mean...DRUG - that's this addictive?

    2000: Microsoft announces they've signed 18 developers to make games for their upcoming Xbox console. Wow. 18 is a lot of developer power with major names in the mix like Lion's Head. Maybe this Microsoft thing will take off after all? Maybe their next system could outsell Sony's? Nah!
