WinBack tuned up

[08.28.99] » A final version of the N64 Metal Gear Solid clone shows numerous improvements.

   The last time Koei's WinBack appeared in playable form, the Metal Gear Solid-inspired Nintendo 64 adventure had a few technical issues. Since then, Koei delayed the title, and used the extra time to iron out many of the problems. The final version on display on Nintendo's Space World showed great progress; it featured improved character and camera controls. Clouds and other background details have also been added to offset the heavy fog in the outdoor areas -- and, as previously mentioned, the two-player battle mode now allows up to four players.

   WinBack is due out September 23rd in Japan. A U.S. release should follow in October.
