The last two pages of the Sacrifice review in issue 121 of Joystick magazine (December 2000)
It was the review in the French magazine Joystick (spanning several pages!) that made me want to buy Sacrifice 🤩
I feel like it's been somewhat forgotten, even though it was praised by the press and players.

Sacrifice box (2000, Shiny Entertainment)
Here's what's inside the box 🎁 (French edition)
An 80-page manual, the game CD, and 2 bonus CDs with the soundtrack, a level editor, and additional maps.
Today, we'd call this a collector's edition! 😀

Today's #GameoftheDay is #TheMatrixPathofNeo on #Xbox! As a huge OG #Matrix fan (in case it wasn't obvious😅), this 2005 game by #ShinyEntertainment & #Atari let you be Neo & relive all the epic fights. Loved the Bullet time combat & the intense fan service. Played it? #retrogaming #classicgames
The Walkthrough offers a rare peek behind the curtain of the secretive video game industry from an unlikely perspective, that of a career strategy guide writer. For eighteen years, Doug Walsh was one of the most prolific authors of officially licensed video game strategy guides. And now he's ready to talk. One part memoir and one part industry tell-all, The Walkthrough takes players on an entertaining march through gaming’s recent history, from the dawn of the PlayStation to the Xbox 360 and Nintendo Switch. Follow along as Walsh retraces his career and reveals how the books were made, what it was like writing guides to some of the industry’s most celebrated — and derided — titles, and why the biggest publishers of guidebooks are no longer around. Walsh devotes entire chapters to many of gaming’s most popular franchises, including Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, Gears of War, and Diablo, among others. From inauspicious beginnings with Daikatana to authoring the books for the entire Bioshock trilogy, with plenty of highs, lows, and Warp Pipes along the way, Walsh delivers a rare treat to twenty-first century gamers. The Walkthrough is sure to satisfy the curiosity of anyone who grew up with the works of BradyGames and Prima Games sprawled across their laps. With over one hundred books to his credit, and countless weeks spent at many of the most famous studios in North America, he is uniquely qualified to give an insider’s perspective of a little-known niche within the multi-billion-dollar industry.
